OK. After several months of Shan't, I did 25 minutes on the bike machine. Was trying for 30, but... it's been more months than I can recall since I last used it. Progress, anyway.
Did not buy more Bailey's knockoff or profiteroles. Did buy chocolate covered almonds. Then remembered that I broke a filling last time I had this brand. (Does not happen with the infinitely superior Meiji almonds from the Korean super, but then I eat a whole pack at once and have to skip dinner.) Then remembered that I'd put the almonds in the freezer that time, and I could still eat unfrozen almonds safely. Didn't want to; they really are second rate.
While I was at Loblaws' Starbucks with my pistachio cold brew and virtuous egg white muffin, ran into M, the partner of one of my s-i-l's grandsons, who live up the street. I pass her on the street periodically and met her at Loblaws once with her mother; this time she was with her father. I never recognize her when I see her, being particularly faceblind where young(er) women are concerned, and she always recognizes me, from one or two Christmas dinners years ago. But of course I do have a walker that identifies me. Anyway she said if I ever needed anything, please let them know. Only of course her partner never answers texts. But it occurred to me, if I see her again, that I might get him to come flip my futon for me since I still lack the arm strength to do it.
We've got another storm! warning for the weekend, but I shall see what happens. Streets were bone dry today and I could have worn shoes. So maybe 2-4 inches will fall Friday or Saturday, but Sunday will be rain and 5C, like yesterday afternoon, so maybe it won't last.
