Winter is icumen in!

We made it pretty far into the calendar this year, but the inevitable is arriving.  Saturday will be Snowstorm #1 (Deb's birthday, no less), followed by the coldest air one could ever imagine in this area.  Tuesday will be Snowstorm #2, followed by lingering cold air well into the 14-day forecast.  A certain over-used 4-letter word comes to mind in such circumstances.  We have had about 1/2" of snow tonight, the first since our early December return from Vienna.  Nearly 6" will arrive Saturday, followed by more than that on Tuesday.  Our walking program continued today, and will conclude with tomorrow's walk.  After that, it's on to the boring treadmill until a thaw arrives.

Medical January continues, and will be followed by Medical February.  I saw my eye specialist yesterday, and will be booking my cataract surgery tomorrow, probably for March.  I was there for nearly two hours.  Deb is on deck for next Wednesday, if roads are passable, to see her shoulder specialist.  There will be much more medical activity to come, so stay tuned!

Deb's Yorick web series has already won its first award.  I'm certain there will be many more to follow.  Episode 9 is now on-line.  Here is a link to her blog, if you have not already watched.  Today is the last day to vote for the date of Yorick's birthday!
