I woke up with great difficulty. Despite the fact that I went to bed quite early, my eyes didn't want to open. It seemed that a huge stone was attached to every eyelash.
There was no electricity anymore, but the ecoflow managed to recharge at night, when it was a couple of hours old.
I slowly slid downstairs, let the dogs out into the yard and went to make coffee. Then my friend wrote. She also complained that she couldn't wake up today. So it wasn't about me...
The first thing I did was to look at the weather forecast. At that moment, everything fell into place. Maybe someone is lucky not to be weather-dependent. But it's definitely not about me.
And now let's see. Tomorrow +2. But on Monday it's -23 again! 20 degrees Celsius difference! What should be the vessels to withstand this and not feel lethargic and sleepy!
My yard and garden continue to look like a snow kingdom. But my state of light lethargy is a trifle compared to the fact that I have to go to work from Monday. Of course, I still hope that we will be transferred to remote mode. If not, a "fun" time is waiting for me... Now I don't even want to think about how it will be. Most likely, I'll have to take the battery to the house for the night, otherwise my car just won't start. As a consolation, I can only think that it won't last long.
The only one who is happy, of course, is my dogs. They are satisfied with any option. They run through the snowy valley and sleep in a warm room with the same pleasure. They don't need to think, "what will happen if...". Although I'm also not sure that I should think about it myself. Life is changing so fast. Especially now. Stability is the word that remained in the distant past. I haven't planned anything for a long time. My life is like survival in some movie about the apocalypse: to live until the evening, and then to live until the morning.
Nevertheless, I don't want everything to look too pessimistic. I have the Internet and it simplifies a lot. I continue to work, write articles, prepare a new series of lectures. Maybe all this will not be needed... and maybe it will be a good addition to my scientific resume. The only thing I know for sure is that it would be too easy to give up. I don't know what will happen next, but spring will definitely be here!
