random thoughts – Day 1,156 – (Wednesday) –chill

It was a full house in the marketing Suite with most of the team on site plus a guest from the leadership development program. If that wasn’t exciting enough, there were donuts! And then a bake sale fundraiser! So yeah, it was a pretty good day at the office.

It was chilly, but I accidentally dressed in ankle pants. This was a grave miscalculation. Bare ankles are more appropriate for me when it’s 10 degrees warmer. The ankles were cold and that made the rest of me feel chilly most of the day.

Freeze warning!

There was a late-morning walk to City Hall to pay the water bill. The Ibuprofen has helped the mysteriously sore leg so the pace was brisk. The afternoon had a quick walk with colleagues to a building across the street for the bake sale. I rushed out without putting on my coat and was super cold. Live and learn. Or not.

There is a freeze warning for tonight, and I swear I am not making this up. It’s just New England and that’s how it is. It's in the high 70s one day and people are lulled into planting flowers then bang, it's back to a freeze warning for several hours overnight. 

The two windows on the porch that have been open for a couple weeks are now closed. The recently repotted yellow flowers were brought into the enclosed porch. Now the debate is whether or not to turn the heat on again.
