Just finished up the soup part of my chicken noodle soup, will deal with noodle part later. All part of leaving the year the same way I found it, militantly friendly & helpful, took some doing to get back to that, Party discipline always a help.

Managed a long walk with P through snowy dumping area, lovely hot shower after, feeling crisp & clean, ready for most anything.

Sadly, next on the plate is some extremely tedious routine work, ah, well.
