dawn at Lake Ella

1/23/2022 – Sunday, and it’s COLD

This morning’s walk was as late as I could make it, going on 8 am, but it was still about 35°F!!!! There was FROST on the grass, y’all!!! brrrrrr. 

Proof of chilly weather: Keely snuggling up between my legs last night:

keely stealing warms

So yes, we were cold, and the walk was about 45 minutes and then we gladly returned to the somewhat warm house.

I think the old Masa location at 3rd and Monroe might be let again? At least, the “for rent” sign is down and there seems to be some demolition of the previous tenant’s partial renovations going on. The same is true for the old Fox & Stag bar in the Manor @ Midtown, which has been completely gutted. Hard to tell at this point what it is going to be by the layout, but I suspect another restaurant, not a bar. As for the old Fire Betty’s location, I don’t see much going on at all.

Yesterday was not a fun day, overall, due to feeling the after-effects of GERD. Apparently pizza is just something I cannot eat in the evening? Or possibly ever. I truly need to work on cutting out the things that seem to trigger that reaction, as it is miserable to experience and then aggravating to deal with. One thing I especially hate about it is that my digestive system is all wonky and upset AND YET I’m still hungry. A side effect, I’m sure, of not being able to properly digest the food in the first place.

But for now I want to pout about it because I truly do love pizza. *sad face*
