10 p.m. weather report last night assured that there would be snow in the southern part of the state...rain probably in the north. First thing I heard on the news this morning, then, was that there was already two to four inches south, with the system creeping up to the central part of the state, and a revised report for a snow advisory in our part of the state. Sure enough, around 3 p.m., the snow arrived here. By suppertime, though, we'd gotten only a dusting.
I got up around 7:30 this morning, and did a treadmill session and resistance exercises after breakfast. After that, I wasted time on my office computer, and then got ready for the day. Mother came over and started a pot of chicken simmering.
Before the snow started, Hubbie ran to the store to get a few grocery items (yes, bread, but no milk...we've already got plenty of that). We were out of celery, which was needed for the chicken soup, plus we wanted lasagna noodles and other things to satisfy our menu plans for the next few days.
It was kind of a lazy day after that. Mother caught up on reading e-mails, blog posts, and social network posts, but we didn't do much else. Around 3 p.m., it started snowing, Hubbie took the Styrofoam containers of 11-bean soup downtown to a local church kitchen, where several ladies from the arts council board were getting things ready for Souper Saturday tomorrow.
For supper, we had leftover spaghetti, with coleslaw, and cottage cheese with grape tomatoes. Mother went home afterward, and Hubbie and I wasted time in front of TV.
We saw the 2002, R-rated movie, "Changing Lanes," starring Ben Affleck, and Samuel L. Jackson. A white attorney (Affleck), and an African American salesman have a fender bender on the freeway, and what should have been a minor inconvenience turns into rage, as each tries to ruin the other's life.
