K reports that his schoolfriend's neighbour recently had a heart attack and died shovelling snow off his driveway. There's an article below with some good shovelling tips beyond lifting from the knees. We had about a foot of snow last night. And we've had a bit more today. But it's the light powdery kind and it's not as cold as it has been.
Our dinner party went well last night. My friend brought a delicious hazelnut chocolate log which didn't last long. Her 24-year-old son got an apartment with his girlfriend and so will be moving out next month, another life stage. Her other son in university had his girlfriend ask him for some space, which depressed him. However, they have not broken up.
My poor sister in Florida reports that she was holding a mug of tea and tripped over an electrical cord in her home a few nights ago. She didn't want to spill the tea so she ended up crashing into a bookcase and bruising her face, knees and her neck snapped back. So she has a stiff neck and a bruised face and other body bruises. In retrospect, spilling the tea was a better idea.

Sorry your sister tripped. Yes, spill the tea. That's better than getting hurt.
Love your potted rose.
Sometimes that Tea is just a cup of Tea regardless of how amazing the first few sips are! I hope she is okay!
Brenda, I was joking with my sis that if she did show up in hospital they would ask a lot of questions as she sounded as if she'd been physically abused. That rose does well in my kitchen, it's blooming right now, thanks.
Mom, my sister says the neck is slightly better today, thanks, I hope it is.
