New Year's Day

[days_unfolding]

Pried myself out of bed. Apparently Walmart will be open today, but the weather will be freezing rain to snow, so I'm staying in. It's a day for puttering around the house. Oh, and I want to watch the Harry Potter reunion special on HBO Max.

Got us all fed. Zara got overexcited and knocked two cans of cat food into a sink full of water. Luckily, the cans weren't open yet. Mimi is waiting for me in my, er, her bed.

Napped. Had lunch. Went back to sleep for 3.5 hours. I don't know what's with me, but I have dark circles under my eyes. Fed the long-suffering cats, who should have been fed two hours ago.

Ugh. Snow on top of ice outside. I gingerly got soda out of the car. It's going to be cold tomorrow (high of 21 F and low of 5), so it won't melt tomorrow. I have salt though.

Talked to Mom. She sounds and is feeling better. She got the dishes done. She really likes some maple cookies that I gave her in her gift basket for Christmas.

Studied Italian. I have a lesson tomorrow. I'm doing loads of exercises, which help, but I'm getting impatient with them. Okay, I studied past tense and the imperfect tense. I bombed on future tense, so I'll get up early and study it tomorrow morning.

I didn't have time to watch the Harry Potter reunion show, but I'll watch it tomorrow.
