I
wish I had something to talk about besides how fucking cold it's been
but because it's been so cold and icy life has come pretty much to a
standstill around here.
The dog waits till she can't wait another
second before going outside and taking care of her business. Well,
last night was the last night of below freezing temperatures for the
foreseeable future, in this case, a week. We're on a warming trend
now with a predicted high of 72˚ for Sunday. Like I said before, a
yoyo.
I
could talk about Game Of Thrones. We started the 6th
season yesterday. We are now beyond the published books (which the
series does not follow exactly...they've cut out the resurrection of
Caitlan and the continued activities of the Brotherhood and so far no
mention of the unknown Targaryen male heir that was being secretly
taken from Dorne to Easteros) but unless you have read the books or
watched the series it would be meaningless.
Out
of sheer boredom I finally vacuumed the house yesterday and started
cleaning the stuff on the long altar in front of the windows behind
the sink. Got about a third of that done.
We
don't usually start watching the show till about mid-afternoon so I
have half a day to kill. Guess I'll go back to cleaning the things on
the shelf above the sink.
I take it one day at a time. Snow yesterday, sun and higher temps today, tomorrow will bring us warmth. It makes it interesting.
ReplyDeleteCold here today too. I finally gave August the overalls I've been working on and now I feel as if my life has no more meaning. No excuse to sit in front of the TV. Ha! I've been doing fussy little cleaning projects too. I suppose these things have to get done some time. You and the dog both will feel like going out soon.
ReplyDeleteNote to Arleen: this winter sucks. And, we agreed to clean the kitchen window tomorrow, which means Laura can climb on the sink to reach it. On the good side, I closely examined my orchid, and found the one stalk that will bloom in spring. Yes, three votes plus yours, this winter is terminal boredom.
ReplyDeleteCrazy stuff I was just enjoying a bit of your spring. We just take it for granted it is going to be bad most the winter.
ReplyDeleteNow you know how the other half of the continent lives...we cope..
ReplyDeleteIt's probably a good opportunity to catch up on those little household tasks! We stopped watching "Game of Thrones" after the first season. I just wasn't into it. Hope the thaw comes soon!
ReplyDeletesorry about the weather, and I just pray I'm alive in 2019 for the final season of GOT. LOL
ReplyDeleteright?! I can't believe they are skipping a year and I heard it will only be 6 episodes long.
DeleteYou have a wonderful "eye", Ellen. Your altar is beautiful, such a lovely thing to see as you are washing the dishes.
