Monday...

After the promise-of-spring sunshine we've had, it was a disappointment to see the snow falling heavily this morning. An add anomaly: walking to the bus stop in the falling snow, I could hear birds singing all round me - as if they thought it was spring.

My little feathered guys are lively today, though quiet.

Monday still...

Managed to fit a lot of things into today: cooking, exercising, reading, cataloguing comics. Because of budgetary problems, I cancelled my subscriptions to about a dozen comics. I can live without them. Yes, really, I can. It really sorted my priorities... There are a number of comics where I haven't liked the art over the past issue or so - The New Avengers, for example. That made them easy cuts. The ones I don't want to cancel, the good ones:

• Batwoman
  
• Echo
  
• Daken: Dark Wolverine
  
• Daredevil
  
• The Invincible Iron Man
  
• Scarlet
  
• Wolverine and Jubilee

I cancelled some of the X-Men related comics (like X-Force and X-Factor). I hesitated over the Wolverine cycle - X-23 and Wolverine - and decided to keep them for the time being. Ditto X-Men: Legacy and Uncanny X-Men, where I am wavering.

Lisa and Lynne came over and we discussed a number of things - particularly food. What we eat, how we eat - I showed them the 'Daily Food Guide' I got from my nutritionist. Lynne is a vegetarian, and had an interesting perspective.

Watch more Burn Notice while exercising. It's a good exercise vid - there's often peppy music. Which the budgies also enjoy.
