Snowed last night and as if to prove everyone correct about the effect of cold damp on artificial joints, today I woke crippled. Well, was crippled all through the night with tendons, but woke owier. Much and various dope was had, including muscle relaxant Tylenol, which sent me back to sleep for a few hours and that seems to have done the trick. Enough so that I came downstairs, put on boots, and swept and salted my front steps. Didn't try the walkway and hope someone else will do it because I have to use that tomorrow to get to physiotherapy. This will not be fun, but no one thought it would be.
In fact Sadie's Mom did my sidewalk and walk mid-morning but the snow didn't stop after that. Sadie is the dog next door and her mom puts my garbage out. The Phantom Snowblower did the four houses south of me but stopped after Sadie's house, alas. Of course the city is supposed to do my sidewalk but the city doesn't work on weekends.
OTOH northern NND (must figure a way of distinguishing attentive owner, He-NND, from pleasant enough tenant S) dropped by the house last night and left me a goodie bag of Japanese treats and a Christmas card. Which was pleasant, though I worried for a bit that the earliness meant they were taking off for Christmas for a month. No, in the event, though they'll be away at some time, borders remaining open and all.
