wild for to hold

I was not brave, I did not start my sock heel. But it's a new week, I am in less pain, and the weather will be wet and cold, so I know I will want to be indoors more for crafty things! Also, haven't considered the way body pain impacts my creativity, but I think it might be time to. I don't think I did much of anything creative last week...

In other news, my manager is getting tested for hypermobility, and we've chatted about body things so she brought it up in relation to me and I... It might explain some things. Like the knee dislocation/sprain that I had a few years ago (and couldn't afford to see a doctor about at the time). And being so flexible without ever actually feeling stretched. I fit a lot of the criteria, and it is definitely something I'd like to talk to a doctor about (whenever I manage to find one who is actually accepting new patients and accepts my insurance). I was already trying to focus my exercise stuff on building stability so I can get back to running when the weather gets warmer, but I may need to pivot a little more to make sure I'm protecting my joints and ligaments a little better.

1. Do you know of any other words for snow? What's your favourite and why?
   I know spanish (nieve), italian (neve), japanese (yuki), and slovenian (sneg). I think of them, yuki is my favourite!


2. What's your ideal temperature range for winter?
   
   If I'm indoors, let the elements do as they will! Outdoors though, 40s to 70s are ideal (which is maybe biased by western Washington's nd Phoenix's respective climates).


3. Favourite winter activity? What about it makes it your favourite?
   
   I don't know that I have any winter specific activities that I love! Maybe I should change that for next year...


4. What are three things you can't do without when winter arrives?
   
   Cozy blankets, stompy boots (for keeping dry and upright on ice!), and leggings to layer under 90% of my outfits for the season.


5. Do you have favourite winter holiday activities?
   
   I enjoy baking cookies to share with folks for Christmas! =)

Can we tell I like putting off cleaning? Blinds are the worst, and I hate the hard flooring in our apartment because it is stupidly textured. X( Keeping my task list light because I think I feel some body things coming on, but will add things later in the week if I have the energy.

   Got to talk to my mom for the first time in a month and got to hear about her and my dad's recent trip to Alaska. Also finally found some tangelos at the grocery store this week♡

   The last episode of The Bad Batch! ToT Partially because I'm sad we finished it so quickly, partially because seeing old clones makes me sad.


3. What made you angry?
   
   Inconsiderate drivers, lack of initiative from other people, lack of understanding from others. The state of US politics. =')

   Another trip to the library!
