Snow day

Director decided last night to cancel today's rehearsal. Good call - we probably got 6" or so, and some of the cast would be traveling from parts of town where they tend to get ice rather than snow, or have to cross a lot of bridges and overpasses, where icing is also a probability.

While the snow meant our contractor didn't come by to cut more drywall for the bathroom (he does that outside in consideration of my asthma), it didn't stop the Chief & me from heading out to a matinee of The Young Victoria (GORGEOUS movie! loved the costumes!) followed by dinner at an "Irish pub". Before we left, I got another pot of soup started; after spending the afternoon in the fridge while we were gone, it's now back on the stove, simmering away. And if I don't get to pumpkin pie tonight, I'll definitely be making one tomorrow.

We came home to find that someone, perhaps a neighbor with a new snowblower?, had cleared the sidewalk the full length of our side of the street. That left the Chief with only the front steps and walk to do.
