Today was completely unplanned but was very enjoyable and much needed. Last night a friend came over to watch a movie. Unintentionally I choose a long movie and when it ended at 2am I decided it was best that my friend sleep over. After being able to leisurely stay in bed as long as I wanted I got up at 11am and made blueberry muffins (lovely pre-ready packages from the states.) Then a colleague came and picked up something I had to give him (the only thing I had scheduled for the day.) When I went outside I realized how beautiful a day it was. The day before was nice enough that I never had to start my stove (i.e. no heat) and today seemed like it would continue. I convinced my friend that we should go for a walk in the park.
The weather was amazing today, on the 19th of January. I can't believe how warm it was. Yes, it was a bit windy and that made me need to wear my jacket, but otherwise it would have been perfect. My friend and I walked in the woods and played catch with a hacky-sack for awhile. I realized how long it had been since I have done anything active. My arm hurts really bad right now! I am afraid that all my muscles will ache tomorrow when I wake up. But it was all worth it and very enjoyable. I love being active and outdoors.
Although I miss seeing snow, I am very happy with the wonderful warm sunny weather here. The problem is that its hard for me to get anything done when the sun is shining outside. I just want to be outside. Thankfully I work better at night. I was hoping it would rain tomorrow (as it is right now) so that I would have more of an incentive to stay home and get work done, but the weather forecast calls for sun again. We'll see what happens.
Now I am going to make some dinner and see about getting some work done tonight.
