Hi Folks!

Yesterday we had snow. But not the glorious blizzard we had the other day, I might add. It seemed half-hearted as if it just couldn’t be bothered.

Which is pretty much where I think I was yesterday too.

My office was freezing despite the six-foot storage heater along one wall, and I was so cold that I ached all over.

I was expecting the promised blizzard and was so disappointed. I didn’t feel much like working.

It would be warmer in the front room, but I knew what would happen if I gave up and went in there. I would curl up on the couch and be asleep in minutes. I convinced myself that I might feel more like doing something later.

Friday is the day the fridge freezer gets a professional look over, so there is a lot to do tomorrow. I must remove two kitchen cupboards and all the junk on top of the said fridge so it can be easily turned around.

Did I end up retreating to the front room?

Yes, I flipping well did, but…

But I wasn’t as tired as I thought. I wrote a blog post and then started a much-needed chapter on the WIP. I worked on the knitting (which I am still unhappy about). I finally made a decision and promptly unravelled back to the rib.

All in all, I seemed to do more work in one afternoon than in a full day in my freezing office. The only drawback was that the light failed quite early in that room, so I could have gone on and done a lot more work.

Is there a message in this post?

You bet! Keep warm, and you will work better!
