Our Snow Sunday

Well, we did get about 8 inches of snow on Saturday.  Like I said in my last post, I cancelled our very important children's musical practice on Saturday, thinking we would just have to make do with a last-minute practice before church Sunday morning.  That in itself was too much stress.  But then trying to decide if we should just postpone it instead, listening to differing advise, trying to not be a "wuss", but also not forging ahead with plans as though there was no snow out there.   Finally around 8 pm I made the decision to postpone it till the 29th, and shortly thereafter the decision was made to cancel the service altogether Sunday morning.  I felt better, but it took a while for my heart rate to slow down.

So we ended up having a very relaxing day of rest.  Here are some pictures I took.

It occurred to me that if I pull back the drape our Christmas tree could be seen from the street.  I doubt if anyone will bother to look as they drive by, but I will, haha!  

Oh my, this morning my fingers were so cold when I drove to the Giant supermarket to get the supplies I would need for a day of cooking at Anthony and Lori's.  Ever since we went ice skating as a family one VERY freezing cold night about 30 years ago (it was 4 degrees, if I remember correctly), and I apparently got frostbite on some of my fingers, every time my hands get cold, some of my fingertips get white and numb.  Honestly, my fingers did not thaw out the entire time I was in Giant this morning.  I even took a picture of the poor things, haha!

Anyway, apparently my fingers weren't the only thing frozen this morning.  I guess my brain was too.  After I got to Lori and Anthony's place and brought in the groceries, I looked for my recipe folder that I always take with me.  Uh-oh.  It was missing.  So back to Giant I went, knowing I had left it in my cart.  (Not the first time I've done that.)  I retrieved it, came back to their place and got to work.  A few times I noticed that I had not gotten some things that I thought I had.  I substituted with other things.  But finally, after the third missing thing, I decided to look at my receipt.  Aha!  I had paid for all three.  In fact, they were the first three things on the receipt, so probably all in the same bag.  Probably. Left. In. My. Cart.  So after I was finished for the day, I headed to Giant for the third time.  My things were all still there at the front of the store.  I think they're soon going to be making a "Jean's Lost and Found" box.  

From there I went for my mammogram.  When I was finished I made sure I did not leave any articles of clothes behind.  (-:
