more of the same, really

jennlkalthough there's snow on the ground now. I actually didn't shovel this last round of snow - J did! W00t! Usually I do the upper part of the driveway, and he'll eventually, sometimes, do the length of the driveway. I would rather have the top of the driveway (where the turning takes place) clear than the straight shot to the road, and I can only do so much shoveling before various joint express their displeasure. I'll shovel the end of the driveway if the drifts across it are deep, but we've not gotten any drifts to speak of this winter - the wind's not been blowing across the driveway while the snow is loose, and once the snow packs in the sun it doesn't drift. They tell us that we'll get slop midweek and then it's supposed to get cold for a bit. I guess buying DB a new winter jacket didn't work. (last year, I bought a *warm* winter jacket for me, and wore it twice. I was kind of hoping that DB's new jacket would have the same effect.)
Still things missing in the stores, although the shelves at Meijer were much better looking than last week. Still missing a few things, though. Nothing I couldn't either do without or substitute for, though. I did have to hunt around for the small bags of sugar - they were on a pallet in a center aisle, rather than on the shelf. They're in the process of adding another form factor of sugar into the shelves, and that area is a bit shuffled. Somewhere in the last year or so, Pioneer Sugar has gone to red bags with white and blue printing, rather than the white with red and blue they used to have. It was a bit disconcerting.
J trundled off to the UP a couple of weeks ago, and realised when he got home that he'd left things up there. One of them the emergency blanket that's supposed to live in his car. So I gave him the stadium blanket out of my car (moving the reserve blankie from the basement to my car). He took it with him on his walk last Saturday (they stop halfway for lunch), and told me all about how nice it was. Yeah, I know how nice it is to have a blankie like that. That's why it was in my car (it spent a lot of time deployed at football games, either around me or around HS band kids).
Shoulder improving quite nicely. Almost back to where it was in November, before the most recent impingement cropped up. Whee! Have started doing a few of the exercises from PT at the gym, where there's more space and better equipment for them.
