Read Across America or something else to do in the late afternoon

Washington State:  Sherman Alexie and his books on Native American Life growing up in and around Spokane..........  Sleet or freezing rain out and about here in Heidelberg........  Curling at the Olympics?  Watching paint dry might be as fun...... Late afternoon relaxation time with not many chores....  Time to transfer files from laptop to storage device and clean up memory..........  Spring Break plans complete.......  Now what to do for the upconing weekend?  May surf the cyberspace for news or politics or just mundane boring things...........  Need to get back to routines and such to inlcude the gym and reading.........  Maybe both at the same time............  Ian Rankin's books not bad either..........  OK there is always cooking to be done........  Yikes.........

Sunday in Heidelberg

It has been a while, but well  it was snowing and we had lousy weather..........  My other life is full of everyday activity with lots of distractions, requests, demands, and general goingsons...  Is that a word?  You could be one of the 10 missionaries jailed for kidnapping..........  The market trip on Satu rday morning was a fun with lots of things bought to cook later.........  I love to buy fresh herbs and then figure out how to use them in different ways........  Will try Leek and Potato and Carrot soup later today........  I need to go out and get (find) fresh cream (sanna) here......  Noshing on a bit of pork chop and cherry chutney and a bit of the grape........  Reading a bit of ed stuff about one's ability goes up and down over time..  The smarts everyone says you have actually need tending to every year and is not just stagnant.....  More on that later.......  Will ventoure out for a walk later on with Seamus.  Maybe down to the bakery for fresh bread and stop off at cafe for uick drink.      Lots of snow in DC but here in Heidelberg it is finally snow free and a bit cold and windy but nice to have the snow gone..........  More later after the walk.......
