IT IS THAT KIND OF DAY

Bitty turned on the caps lock, but it seemed appropriate for the title. It is the kind of day that would make you want to go back to bed, but I won't. I am doing dishes, because the hot water feels good on my hands. Also other cleaning work. There is a kettle on the back of the stove, for warm drinks and to put moisture in the air. Laundry--one load done. I hung some of it on hangers. Again, to put moisture in the air because the heat will be running constantly. It is quite likely I will do a lot of cooking, for comfort and to get ahead. I need to go into payroll and request pay for today. Starting last year, if we had an emergency school closing--for weather or whatever reason--we will still get paid. Well we should, we work hard and are hard to replace. So, I may go nap in my chair, though. It would feel good.

In the past we could even use our sick days if we were out of paid time off, but this is much better. I might need those other days for Bob or something.

I don't blame you. We have hard cold winds, I think I'll take me a nap. Enjoy your day.

I think the wind was the biggest problem with our weather. It piled and drifted the snow.

Laundry and dishes always seem to be there for us. They are so faithful.

Hope you got that nap. Enough moisture in the air today here I didn't need to add to it

don't it just make your day when the cat sets your computer up B-4 you even knew they are too smart for their own good.

Yes, Bitty is a smarty-cat. I like when the cats spend time with me.

@GardenGerty cats have a way of making our day when we need a boost in life.

You did have that kind of day. You got a lot done. You deserve the nap in your chair.

I now leave a container of water in the lounge because we run the A/C such a lot. I don't really know if it helps or not.

It's good that you will get paid. This weather is going to turn so nasty. The high for Tuesday will be 12. Stay warm and have a good day. A nap sure sounds good.
