BRRRRR




BRRRR - OMG - we woke up to -19° this morning. I think the high was -12°. Hubby took a walk this AM, as did I. No biggies if you're dressed well.

Hot soup for lunch. And then we've been sitting in front of our little gas space heater stove in the living room. Nice addition that we really enjoy when it's cold like this. Now hubby is walking up to the library again.

I've still having a devil of a time with my hand. I think I fell on one particular spot, and all the pressure from that fall focused there. Painful still, swollen hand still. Even though x-rays show the actual breaks are healing well, the soft tissue bruising is going to take some time. I can move my fingers finally, but the wrist and moving my arm, yikes.

I made a sort of resolution to write 300 words a day. So I've been posting on the Flash Fiction challenge site most days. I also have been doing some online exercise classes that my insurance company sponsors.

The 300 words are doable, since I am still getting my left hand back into typing. The exercise classes are low impact, last about 15 minutes, so I do about 2 or 3 a day. I don't stress myself, but I still am getting some good stretching and moving, even in this extreme weather.

There are two big non-profit tasks coming up. I have to distribute the monies raised in the one I manage. Auditing that one now. So in February I'll give out eleven checks to non-profits. We raised about $17K this year. Pretty decent for a year with a dicey economy. Then the Chamber of Commerce is doing the membership drive, of which I am treasurer. So I volunteered to do that mailing. Working now on that also. Busy work. Good to be busy.

Keep warm. It is brutally cold here for a few days.
