Calm, uneventful, relatively unproductive. (Do have to remember that around here Christmas is over.)

Discarded the idea of sitting out back with a nice fire in the chiminea. Actually, pretty much discarded the idea of being outside at all, although Pax and I did take several painful walks. Serious windchill. On the plus side, cleared out clogged closets and assembled a substantial pile of things to be relocated.

Went swimming, too, at the Aquatic Center, and it is a bit strange to dive into water when on the other side of the large windows surrounding the pool the temperature is 30 degrees below freezing.
