My heart sank when I looked out the window this morning. The promised wintry mix of last night was mostly freezing rain, and the prophylactic sprinkling of salt I'd put on the sidewalk when taking the garbage out (first time in three weeks) was no match for it. But temps rose during the morning and it was gone by mid-afternoon when I went out to vote. There were still a few spots where garbage bins and snow berms made passage a bit difficult but I made it to Palmerston, and then back to Fiesta because I was craving sugar and Fiesta has cake slices. Only none that I wanted, so I got two chocolate chip cookies instead. And discovered that hallelujah, there are Ontario grown 'living lettuce' plants for 2.50. I'd been resigned to no leafy greens till spring and making do with Loblaws green drink which I suspect is cheating, because it has kale and celery and orange juice which I'm pretty sure comes from the US. Chuffed also to find that my favourite Cortland apples are Ontario grown, and that there are indeed Canadian walnuts available: except they're the huge bags I'd never be able to get through before they went rancid. But if I'm dying for a Waldorf salad come spring, it will be doable.
But definitely I need to get a No Canvassers sign made for the next election. Or will tell the canvasser of whatever party I'm voting for to puhleeze not come checking up on me again cause once is enough. As for the Liberal canvasser who came round this morning-- guy, where were you types when the campaign was on? Day of is a mite late, don't you think?
However, since I was already downstairs I weighed myself. Nice if I could keep dropping 3 pounds a week but probaby not healthy, so this week was a mere 1.6 pounds. Slow and steady, and (fingers crossed) I have registered a change in going up and down stairs. Fingers crossed again, because knees are just as likely to start twinging and refusing to take my weight if the weather changes, which it will.
