First off...allow me to remind myself that today is Friday. I started off Thursday (yesterday), reminding myself that that was indeed the correct day. Last week, I made a post that said it was Friday and it was really Thursday and I was determined to not let that happen again! Well, come around late afternoon and my brain decided to have some fun with me. There's a book club I attend on Zoom, two Fridays a month. Somehow, in my head, I skipped over the rest of Thursday and was absolutely certain it was Friday evening. I got on the Zoom link and waited...and waited...and wondered what was happening. I finally messaged one of the co-moderators only to have her tell me, "Today is Thursday." Good grief. So...yes...it's Friday!
The current ice event is finally winding down. There was a break yesterday afternoon, which was a relief. I didn't, however, anticipate waking in the middle of the night to the ping ping pinging of sleet pellets. Fortunately, it doesn't seem to have added any significant weight to the already iced world. Now I can hear the steady drip (like rain) of melting ice. It's about 33F right now and is supposed to reach the upper 30s.
Whenever it happens, I'll be delighted to see sunshine again. I feel like the iced trees outside, in suspended animation, waiting for some kind of restriction in my psyche to be set free again.
