January 31st

It is snowing!  Not sure if that is really a good thing, but it seems right.  The winter has been rather mild so far, a little bit of snow if fine.  Hopefully I will feel that way in the morning when I go to shovel.  After writing my blog last night I watched a YouTube video about packing for the trail.  I know I will have more weight than I should and really need to consider ways I will be able to cut back.

For today my happy is getting the trash out to the curb before the truck came to pick it up, having a dog to snuggle with, and being able to chew again-even if just on one side.  I had an apple and some salad and nuts and dried fruit.  Oh, how I have missed some of these things since the dental stuff started.

It isn't obvious from the picture but the ice is not safe... there is no way to get onto it.

Snow!
