random thoughts – Day 2,157 (Wednesday) – fresh tracks

The Tuesday forecast included snow, and right on cue, it began around 5:00. That put the timing at when travel to Tuesday dance group would be underway, but the decision had already been made to not go. It snowed at least until I went to bed.

I slept late this morning (8:00!), which seems to be becoming my new new-normal. It feels like I’m slipping back into my college-era sleep pattern of staying up late at night and sleeping later in the morning. During the very many responsible adult years of working in an office I molded myself to be in bed close to 10:00 p.m. and up by 6:00 a.m. It eventually felt kind of natural, and took a lot of coffee to wake up in the morning. 

Fresh snow, fresh tracks.

The fresh snow accumulation that greeted me when I raised the shades in the morning didn’t seem to be too horrible. A line of critter (likely bunny) tracks extended from the street and up my driveway to the spot under the carport that was snow-free. The tracks resumed at the far end of the carport, skirted the edge of the newly mounded mountain of snow from the roof, and around the corner of the shed.
