Other Than Reading...
After a nice Spring week, I woke up to snow-covered ground this morning. We're supposed to have a rain/snow mix until midnight. I'm watching the weather closely as I have my annual wellness visit with my doctor tomorrow and I have to drive to it. Duluth's many hills aren't much fun if the roads are snow-covered or icy.
I did meet some friends for lunch on Wednesday which was nice. I don't see this group of friends very often and it's nice to catch up with them all.
Otherwise, I've been reading and listening and watching baseball. I need to set aside the In Death audiobooks until I have rebuilt my reading cushion. I get really stressed out if I don't have a two-week cushion between my finishing a book and when the review needs to be posted.
