Looking around for a book to find a quote for this post (it was actually “Looking around for”), the first book I came across was the dictionary. Figuring I didn’t have much of a chance of opening it to a random page and actually finding a sentence, I kept going. The book I finally settled on, which was actually the next one I found, was Transcendent, a book I have a short story in.
To be perfectly honest, I haven’t read all the stories in it yet. But I will! It’ll take a while though. It’s a hefty volume!
There are so many ways to read a book these days. I’m quite taken with audiobooks, now that I’ve finally discovered them. But there’s nothing quite like reading a physical book. I might be more enamored of ebooks if I didn’t spend all day staring at a screen … although I do still read them.
It’s beginning to sound like reading a good old fashioned book will be the only thing to do tomorrow. The wind is gusting and the freezing rain is due to start any time, if it’s not already doing it now. I’m in my PJs–I ain’t going out there to check. Anyway, we might lose our power, so if I don’t show up tomorrow, you’ll know why. I have the entire week’s prompts scheduled already, except for Wednesday and Saturday, so you’ll be good for a few days at least.
Wish us luck, as I wish everyone who lives in this wet, frozen part of the world the same.

I stayed inside in my PJ’s today and drank coffee!

It is cold here but we are not in danger of losing power. A couple of extra sweaters and a blanket over my lap as I sit typing 🙂

Yes, I woke to a few inches of snow. I am definitely staying inside where it is warm and I have a good supply of coffee. Hope your power holds.

So far so good. We ended up with unforecasted snow, so that probably took some of the weight off things. Thanks!
