I got up this morning thinking that there are days that I'm pleased to be unemployed, because it means I can stay in when the weather is bad.
So I sent off a letter to someone who posted on Craigslist about a possible editing job; sent a reminder about a small outstanding invoice; and made apple cakelings. The invoice reminder was answered within minutes, with an apology and a promise that the check will be written today, and the cakelings are fine and tasty.
After lunch--Artemis and I had sardines, and I had raw carrots--I decided "only -8 [C], I can handle this", put on my flannel-lined jeans and my new snow boots, and went out. The snow was light and fluffy, the wind minimal, and I handled it well enough to go out to the grocery store (about 1/3 mile each way), instead of just a quick stroll to get sunlight. So we have exciting things like butter and yogurt.
No actual fiction so far today, but I spent a bit of time reading about Jupiter, which may be useful background.
