spikedluvI had a massage today!!  Sister S drove mom to her treatment, so I was able to schedule this for myself. And it was wonderful!  A complete 180 from the last massage I got.  Unfortunately, I still had a chiropractic appointment so I had to hit downtown first, which meant I couldn’t go to Panera for breakfast. :(
McD’s was still cold, but not frigid. Which means they fixed something (and according to one of the employees, they did do something), but not enough. I was still wearing my sweatshirt, winter scarf, jacket and finger-less gloves and had no thoughts of taking them off because it had suddenly gotten warm. I just wasn’t freezing To Death.
My plan after the massage was to hit Bath & Body and Trader Joe’s, get lunch, then hit Hannaford on the way home. (There are certain GF things I can only find at Hannaford, and also they have good cranberry orange muffins, when they’re in stock. Which they were not today, sadly.) Everything went according to plan, except for it had started raining hard before I got to Hannaford, which sucked. Lunch was at Olive Garden. I checked the menu, but went with my usual of soup, salad and breadsticks.
I also hand-washed dishes, went for a walk with Pip and the dogs (in the rain!), cut up chicken for the dogs' meals, scooped kitty litter, and showered. I ate lunch later than usual so I wasn’t hungry for supper (especially since I brought dessert home with me and had that just before suppertime), but I made soup and grilled cheese sandwiches for Pip. (See: weather.)
I wrote something! ~1,000 words on a new fic that has been eating my brain. Dividing my morning in half (aka going to McD’s then driving out to Panera before my appointment (they’re in the same plaza)) meant that I did my computer stuff at McD’s and managed to get 45 min or so of handwritten story done at Panera!! And then I managed to get some more words written in the evening! I’m super excited about getting any words down, but especially these words. New bunnies are especially rabid. *g*
Temps started out at 42.8(F) and reached 48.2. (Ha!, I just noticed the number inversion from low to high temp!) It had started raining before we got up and rained all day as forecasted. Bleh! (Later I noticed that the temp went up a bit in the evening, oddly. I saw 51.2.)
Mom Update:
Mom sounded good when I called her. ( more back here )
