The kid had a 2 hour delay this morning - for road conditions I assume. It snowed either late last night or early this morning. It was 16 degrees when I got up and have about 1/2 inch covering my car. It was pretty and powdery and COLD. But very pretty. Got to love how nature has been doing that since the dawn of time, beauty and pain combinations...
I added a couple pinches of cinnamon to the coffee grounds prior to brewing. Add in some Vanilla creamer and I am seriously in heaven this morning with my coffee. YUM. And yes, I still chug my coffee - lol.
Ahhh, the smell of burning metal first thing in the morning. Thankfully it's been a few hours and the noise level is down and I guess they are working upstairs for a little while. Though one of the construction workers was singing again, which I think it awesome. The quiet though (from the drills, saws and other tools I have no idea of what), is a serious blessing. I am back at my desk today, instead of hiding in the conference room with 3 others.
I'm also in a better mood :^D I was sooo fucking cranky yesterday - it was BAD. Went to bed around 8:30, fell asleep around 9:30 and slept hard until my alarm went off at 6:15 am. Oh and I actually timed my shower this morning (out of curiousity), I got in at 6:30 and was out by 6:42. 12 minutes. Wow, who knew - AND - I wasn't trying to rush or anything. Good to know for future reference. I am still tired though, still feel like I could go to bed early again and repeat last night. I might, to be honest. Though I would like to lay on my Spoonk mat for a little bit first. Love that thing. Soooo relaxing (after the pain goes away - see, pain and pleasure).
The hard thing about going to bed so early is that there are things that need to be talked about with the Husband and that's kinda hard to do when you're snoring. It's also hard to do because you know they might not like what you say or respond in a way you don't like or whatever. I guess I am tired of trying to filter myself. This relationship shit is hard period. Worth it, we hope, but hard to work and figure out.
I had 1 of my organic pop tart pastry thingy's this morning. Not 2, as it is in the package, but 1. My way of self control? Maybe. I just don't want a sugar overload. I didn't put any sugar in my tea either (it's still yummy).
I'm really tired at the moment, but I need to focus on the damned XML and see if I can get at least 1 of them to bloody fucking work. Evil vile thing. In a little while I need to do another book review and respond to some emails as well :) Maybe go walking around the plant for a little bit today. Maybe. I did it yesterday and my calf and thigh muscles got all twitchy at me. My knee only ached a little bit. The joys of being out of shape and having joints that hate me.
Here's hoping...
I'll have to google "spoonk mat." I seriously don't know what it is.
ReplyDeleteI've never lived in a placed that had snow delays or cancellations. In very rare instances we had tule fog delays, but that was it.Where I live now there's almost no inclement weather except that it's coastal, so the unlikely possibility of torrential rain exists, but we usually don't even get that much rain.
I've posted about the Spoonk mat, and actually Aunt Becky totally got me onto the idea.
DeleteYes, well I can relate. Prior to MD, we were in South Florida and basically anything short of a hurricane - the Brat went to school. Here though? Ice, snow or almost ANYTHING and it's a delay or closure. In some ways it's nice, but others not so much. I am just happy my kid is old enough now to survive on his own for a few hours (or a day even)...
