Wandering
8r4d I had a sick day with a bit of a chest cold, which double sucks because the weather finally turned nice this week. I went for a long walk in the thaw but otherwise my productivity was nil today.

Backyard
8r4d We started off the year with a #water problem when on #newyears one of our guests discovered a leaky faucet in our backyard. A couple hours of panic but we fixed it. Today the city was dealing with a water shortage as something broke in the treatment plant and city-wide we were on a half-capacity restriction.

McTaggart Loop
8r4d I'm not #running a marathon this year but some of the crew sure are, so as January ends and the weather gives us a temporary reprive, we dropped a 12k Sunday #run this morning through the local neighborhood.

Kitchen
8r4d We used to make chocolate chip #pancakes every #saturday, but our schedules have shifted enough that it's become something of a special occasion these past few months. I broke out the mixing bowl this morning, tho, nearly four weeks since our last pancake feast. #breakfast

8r4d Dinner for one? Everyone is off doing important things and the dog wasn't in a dinner date mood so I went and got me some #spicy supper.

8r4d Worst parade ever, except a couple times per year our city taxes pay off as the big yellow graders roll by and scrape the crud from the streets. Cricket hates the noise so she needs a better view to enjoy the festivities and she's happier with that.

8r4d Around the world turns and the days warm up again, at least a bit, enough that I can venture back out to a cafe too get some #writing done.

Whitemud Creek
8r4d With Les and I off work and Anita on a day off, we took a second stab at the #snowshoeing this time with a dash of exploration #adventure mixed in. Rather than our normal out and back route we dropped one vehicle at our destination end point and carpooled to the start. Les had planned the route but I dropped a GPS course into my #watch in case we got lost in the #frozen #creek, which is far more likely than it sounds. Neatly five klicks off trudging thru the winding creek brought us to a climb back into three suburban neighborhood and to our dropped vehicle. It was a great little trip.

Blackmud Creek
8r4d I finally un-cabin-fever'd with some snowy running and creek #snowshoeing. A ten klick morning run (followed by coffee of course) and then a few of us met up to do a four klick #snowshoe thru Blackmud Creek.

8r4d Frozen is a relative term in January. Like, we were frozen on our run this morning in -17C but less frozen than we would have been #running last Sunday in -36C. That said, in my own humble opinion the eyebrow frost accumulation is well-earned today.
