 I'm not so great at resolutions, it seems. Three days late on my second of the new year.
I have been walking at the Maul of America. I blaze along while Kathy takes it slower because of a bad knee. Then we saunter over to Ikea for their 99 cent breakfast. Scrambled eggs, potatoes, and chicken sausage (which as a vegetarian I forego). Coffee's free until 10a.m. as well. All-around good deal.
I finally got the ice chipped off my back sidewalk. We had a slush storm a couple weeks back, during which I shoveled only the north side of the concrete.  By the next day, the temperature had gotten bitter, and the leftover slush had become glare ice. Very scary to try and negotiate.
I scattered grit, but warmer weather eroded the surface, and I kept chipping away at it until it was gone. No more half measures when shoveling.
