They said it would snow and it did. Took a while for it to start sticking to the pavement but I think it has now. Maybe more tomorrow, or maybe it will start melting. Midweek will be well above freezing but until then I'll be hibernating and/ or couch potatoing.
Any thoughts I might have had about going to the AGO or the Staples on University yesterday were shelved by the TTC closing all stations from Bloor southward for track maintenance both days and not running shuttle buses. 'Walk over from Yonge, peasants' being the essence of what they suggested. I sort of see why: that leg is underused on weekends. One can take the Spadina LTR to the AGO, and I've done it, *with* a walker, but not on a Chinatown weekend thank you. Bad enough on a weekday before rush hour with everyone loaded down with their shopping. I do miss my bike: also being able to walk without support.
So I sit and read and fight the inclination to make a Dutch Baby pancake, now that I happen to have the requisite ingredients: flour, milk, eggs, and some butter. I love Dutch Babies but they don't love me and I don't need that much wheat and fat. I have crumpets instead to console me because they're only 60 calories each.
Anyway, I gardened yesterday and got a bag and change worth of leaves swept up, so there's been some exercising happening.
