DAY 16 OF 365: ICE/RAIN STORM WITH NO UMBRELLA EQUALS A SOAKED ME

So today we had another Snow/Ice storm on the East coast. The thing is, it wasn’t a surprise. The news had forecasted this storm and I had known about it for a couple of days. Now a smart person would check and make sure they had an umbrella. Not me. I even thought about stopping at the Duane Reade on my way home from the gym last night to pick one up, but I said to myself, no reason to pick up another umbrella. You have one at home. So this morning when I woke up and it was sleeting and freezing rain outside, guess what I couldn’t find? That’s right, an umbrella. I didn’t have one. So I was forced to walk to the PATH train with no umbrella. Needless to say, when I got to the office this morning I was soaked and cold. So what did I learn? Next time a storm is forecasted buy an umbrella.
I was planning on going to Trader Joe’s today during my lunch break to go grocery shopping but unfortunately with the snow, ice and rain, I opted not to. So it looks like I will be doing my grocery shopping on Thursday. Since I wasn’t able to do my shopping this weekend, my kitchen is almost bare. Besides, I am also excited to make some of the dishes in my Greens, Glorious Greens cookbook. I am also looking forward to my new desk arriving on Saturday. The only thing that I am not looking forward to is having to assemble it. I am getting better at doing it myself and putting things together, but there is still that part of me that would much rather just pick up the phone and call someone to do it for me.
Tonight I was a bit lazy, as I was feeling sore from my workout with JC the other night. I came home and cooked dinner and put in a movie. Nothing better than curling up on the couch with a home cooked meal and a good movie on a cold night. Every so often you need a night like that. Well, as I type this post I feel myself fading. Off to bed I go. I am have early day tomorrow and then another session with JC after work.
