Oh dear, I wanted to make my Lame Post Friday blog post before going out adventuring today, but I sit here at my Chromebook feeling headachey and dull. Where’s that sparkling personality I thought I had? And here we come to the ugly truth about me. Never mind. I want to make a blog post and I will. Quick, throw in a picture to lighten up the mood.
Who could be uncheered by a snowman?
I have not seen any snowmen recently. It has not been warm enough for the snow to pack, unfortunately. The caption, by the way, is an homage to Winnie the Pooh.
You KNOW I am going to enter!
Here is a sign I have not seen in a while, because I have not been running. I really want to start again, but with below zero wind chills and ice on the roadways, I keep putting it off. I have been saying I am going to run the Boilermaker 15K in Utica, NY this July but have not yet registered. I heard open registration started, so I better get moving on it. It will be good for a few blog posts anyways.
Bittersweet is the word.
I close on a melancholy note. I shared this picture on Facebook this morning after it showed up in my Memories. The mugs were a Christmas gift from my sister Cheryl, the Queen of Christmas, to my dearly missed husband Steve and me. I said that I rarely use these mugs, but perhaps I would today for a cup of hot cocoa. I recently purchased the necessary ingredients. Hmm, that motivates me to get out the door and get on with my errands and adventures. I can return to a steaming mug of hot cocoa. Maybe I’ll add a shot of moonshine from Dikin Durt Distillery, just to give a local business a shout-out.
