Awake 4:44 am Temp downtown 26 16 inches of snow 5 hrs 58 min daylight
Get up early to snowblow our driveway....otherwise we may have difficulty
getting out to our main Basher road. The Anchorage School district has
cancelled school & traffic on the busy Tudor road going downtown is backed
up as far as our eyes can see. It takes us 30 min to go 1 mile.
Alaska Club exercise...upstairs @ 8:20...finish @ 11:20. Afterward, I join
Ann's water aerobics group & her power flex group in their annual
Christmas covered dish luncheon downstairs. There must be more than 50
people gathered for this. Her luncheon is famous for it's great dishes;
people we haven't seen for months are here today. It's also Ann's birthday
so we all sing the "Happy Birthday to Ann" song. She's a young 58. Then
Gene reads a poem that Ann's husband wrote for the occasion...very clever
& touching. After lunch, the group has a Chinese auction...and this lasts
for another hr or so. Kathy stays & will get a ride to the library...I
leave @ 12:20, get the RAV 4 washed @ Rainmaker car wash...then home @
1:02 pm.
Finish widening our driveway by more snowblowing, then driving my tractor
over to neighbor Harry's place & snowblow his driveway. Total time about 2
hrs.
Melissa calls: I get to talk with her since Kathy's not here...a casual
keeping in touch call.
Then Kathy calls for a pickup @ the library @ 6:24. We skip dinner because
of our BIG lunch @ Ann's party.
So while we watch a movie that we watched not too long ago "His Girl
Friday" we snack on mixed nuts.
Lights out: 12:22 pm
