Day four: vernal equinox

So spring starts tonight at 11:49. Four minutes from now as I type this.

I actually got out of the house today! Breakfasted, coffeed, tossed on some clothes and took the garbage out. Then I continued around the block, past Dunkin' Donuts, where I stopped in for a takeout of a cocoa mocha iced latte, and continued back to the apartment. It felt good getting out. There were a fair number of people around, many in masks. One store had a sign saying they ha alcohol and wipes.

Puttered on line, and read, then Skyped the FWiB. his wife is facetiming him every day too, so we have to fit out calls around that. He is very happy to have two women talking to him every day.

I called mashfanficchick just to say hi, and we had a nice talk. I also called the Kid but she was having a group conversation with some friends.

After dinner I went to read some more. I have finished Clockwork Boys and am starting the second in the duology, Wonder Engine, I think it's called. Wonder something. Anyway, just when I was going to call Oldest Brother the Kid called back and we had a nice long chat.

Then I called Oldest Brother, and we talked, and after that I rearranged some of the books on my shelves because the Kid said I could bring a few of hers to her when we see each other.

And it's now past 11:49, so Happy Spring!
