2020 Accountability and Focus: New socks!

Yesterday, I let the cold weather cut my walk short. Today I went through some boxes in my room and eventually came to the one with my winter clothes in it. I knew where the box was, I just kept avoiding going through other boxes to get there. The box I wanted had my good winter jacket and warmer gloves as well as other winter attire. This meant that I made it through the entire one mile walk and was warm. Yesterday I also stopped more often than today and that may have contributed to the cold hands as well. Had it not been getting close to dark, I may have stayed out walking even longer. Crunching on top of the frozen snow and ground in my warmer winter gear is a happy for today. Other happy things include:

Commenter --K, thank you for the link about ice needles! I knew they had to have a name! I also followed the link that blog shared which went into more detail about different ice formations. Nature has so many wonderful things to share.
We had a holiday delivery of fresh latkes today. They were yummy. Happy Hanukkah!
The delivery also brought new socks for K and I-sheep and llama. K is the sheep and I am the llama.
My hair is long. Yesterday I didn't braid it and this morning it took me about five minutes to untangle the mess it had become. One of the things I tend to do to keep my fine hair in line is to make two braids, one behind each ear, and then tie those into a knot behind my head. This works for a little while, but eventually my hair will dry and the knot will start to work its way out. Often I will use a hair clamp to keep the knot together. The clamp is not always comfortable though if I rest my head back. I have also sewn my hair into this position. This is a little time consuming and can be difficult to remove, but it works really well. I had an idea this morning and I made a thing (altered an elastic) to hold the hair in the knot. It still wanted to unknot, but didn't. It was fun to try, and I may work at prefecting it another day.
