7:28 - It's snowing! And it's REALLY snowing. I can't wait to get out and try to exercise - walk, ski-walk, jog...something! Last night, I officiated a sophomore girls game with my friend, and it was good to be back on the court.
11:46 a.m. - The walk was BEAUTIFUL. It was a little colder than I thought, and there was more snow that I thought, so the ski-walking poles were more like stabilizers than poles. Once I got around the school and to the village streets, the wind wasn't as strong. I know it sounds weird, but I not only like the scenery with the snow on the trees and bushes and everywhere, but I love the quiet of an early snowy morning; plus, I like to hear the crunch of the snow under my feet. Then I came home and shoveled the driveway; the snow was heavy and wet, but that was good exercise. I had a Lily moment, though, that made me sad. I thought for a moment that I needed to remember to shovel off the back deck, but now we don't have Lily who needs to go out the back door to go potty. I shoveled the back deck anyway, just in case Lily needed to come back down and potty on the deck. Amber and I watched Shirley Clarke's funeral service on the computer, which was weird but everything in COVID is weird. The ceremony was really wonderful, and there was a poem read that was called "The Dash" that I had never heard. Man, that was a great poem. Shirley would have approved of the service. Then Amber made me clean showers - UGH. I suppose I was overdue to get out the magic erasers and clean the showers, so I just got it done.
12:58 p.m. - I have discovered that I'm an idiot. I finally figured out why I was confused so much as student answers, and now I realize that they are just copying the question into Google and pasting whatever pops up into their document. Why didn't I realize this before, or is it just more prevalent now that everything is on a digital device?
