Another birthday has come and gone, and the snowed stayed away. I guess I am glad, but I really just wanted to see it. This morning sleet is falling and covering the ground, but there is little hope that they will bar the doors for this weather event. Temps are supposed to reach 38 today. Boo.
I was able to reconnect with a friend yesterday for lunch and a trip to the nail salon. She brought her daughter who I hadn't seen since she was very tiny. It was so good to see them, and I sincerely hope that she and I will work harder to stay more present in each other's lives.
The other night, I went back and read a lot of the old posts in this blog, and I was surprised by all the times I talked about my friends. It was actually a little humbling. OK, a lot humbling. I don't think I have been a great friend lately, and I think I am going to work on that.
Pausing to listen to the closings... nope. We're still a go.
Yesterday was quite lovely. Greg took me out to a nice dinner, Nathan sent me some flowers, and I got lots of nice notes on Facebook. I wish everyday could be my birthday. February 12th might actually be the saddest day.
Teaching Candide today and some Basho as well. I taught the Basho earlier this week, so I feel pretty sure of what I am going to do with that, but the Candide is a little rusty. I am pretty sure I have in in the bag, but I don't remember exactly how I did it last time. I probably will remember as I am teaching it all the things I wanted to do differently this time. That's usually how most of this goes.
Time to get moving. I really wish someone would say that school is closed today. Oh well. It's hump day and Valentine's Day is just around the corner. There is lots to look forward to in the coming days. And I still have cake! ;)
