Just another day in the life

I slept a bit more last night, seems the reading before sleep is helping. I was a reader my whole life and am not sure when that faded away. I need to get the proper reading glasses again though as the progressives are awkward to get the right angle. When I got up and on the treadmill, it wasn’t snowing but by the time I went to leave for work I had to clear a light dusting off my car. By the time I left work to go volunteer at Key City, there was a good foot of snow. I got it all cleared off and waited to get the burning and tingling feeling gone from my toes as I didn’t wear the right boots. Sadly only 58 people came out to the show tonight. It was a solo performance artist and I feel bad for them as they have to give the same high energy, no matter how many it is for. I was going to go to the hockey game after but knew I had a lot of shoveling to do so when I heard two young men speaking a foreign language walking past, I offered them my tickets. They were very happy and I was glad they weren’t going to go to waste. On the way home I was detoured around many flashing lights and the power was out all the way to my street. Fortunately our power was still on. I parked on the street and for the next hour I cleared snow. It was too much to do all three spots as it was wet and heavy, very unusual for Cranbrook. I did a great deal though. The only problem, besides all the hard work, was I had Chantilly Lace running through my head like an earworm. It’s not even from my generation!!! The dinner of choice after all that was McClelland’s scotch and Pogos. Puzzle and That 90’s Show completed the evening.
