Good morning, all. (If I get this posted quickly enough.) The weather has arrived here, and talking about it is like commenting on grocery store prices but I'm going to do it anyway. The snow was coming down at a 45 degree angle from right to left, but at the same time snow was going from left to right horizontally. 180 degree angle. Some of the snow appears to be participating in a pirouette. It's a great day to stay in and do laundry.
--oops, too late. Good afternoon, all.

Okey, so I got distracted doom scrolling and never hit Submit or finished CUOP. Or started, really. Just going to jump in and get started.

Hello, everyone!

Gma, how kind of you to do that sewing job for your DNiece. I'm sure she'll be very happy.

L.Ann, I'm trying to stay away from the news too ATM. Somehow, anything that's really important still gets through.

Bama, have you tried the little copper balls to clean the glass bottle? Ive used them to clean really dirty vases and decanters where the grime got "stuck on" , and they were successful.

Dogged, enjoy your indoor day. That weather definitely sounds as though it needs to be appreciated from the warmth of a cosy apartment!

Enjoy coffee with your friend, Helia.

I'm keeping this short as I keep getting error messages. Church was very good this morning, even though there were only 8 of us. I also managed to hoover the car as it stopped raining for long enough, and did a few admin tasks , as it wasn't worth going home before my appointment.

Waitrose have delivered and the grocery are PA, and everyone has been fed.

Ring Saga re house insurance - can we get a loyalty discount as we also have car insurance neither them? (Find policy no. for car insurance first!)
10.30 am church
Any errands to run?
Book parish lunch for 29/1

Print copy of menu for sign up sheet
Can I hoover the car?

[Kittykatt]

Tomorrow's list of things to remember!

Find policy number no for car insurance
Tweak quote for home insurance until I'm happy
Ring Saga and ask if they do a loyalty discount if I take their home insurance too
If it stops raining, can I do something in the garden?
Can I get a walk in?
Some more work in the kitchen?

Finally!
I have not been able to sign in all day!!!

The entire day was spent in and out, alternating shoveling with indoor work, puppy out for play in the snow and repeat...
Thus, I now have a walkway cleared, my steps are more or less clear, my car was brushed off multiple times, there is a path next to it, so I can get in if needed... I cleared the sidewalk in front - only to get it partially buried by the plow... DD dropped by and shoveled in front of my car, so there is a way out... I cleaned (part of ) the deck, where we walk down to the back with ddog.
This was brutal.
My back hurts, arms, shoulders, legs... Gym is NOT happening tonight. I had enough exercise.
I resolved the credit card issue... stressful.

Next up:
feed the laundry
take a hot bath/wash hair/dry
change into jogging suit

prep dinner
feed pup
keep laundry moving

pup out

Hope you all had a better day - will CUOP when I get a chance to sit.
