Today was a slow, lazy day. We watched TV most of the morning and then vacuumed the carpets and swiffered the wood floors. My house, luckily for me, is easy to maintain. If it weren't for the little dog, we would probably become comatose and be found in a semi-conscious condition by the neighbors. I did manage to put together a really nice Chinese dish, beef broccoli, which we had for dinner. Tomorrow it will be stew.
We are really looking forward to the inauguration on Tuesday. The weather in Washington, D.C. can be pretty uncomfortable so I hope it is sunny and warm. We were amused to see the pigeons flying around, and I remembered what a problem they were when I was there during the War. We used to walk around with newspapers over our heads and our eyes looking upward, to try to avoid the inevitable. Some pretty wild plans were put forth to get rid of them, but for one reason or another nothing came of them and the pigeons are still there. New york has the same problem.
Our son-in-law is improving and resting comfortably at home. He is being closely monitored by his doctor and we are all much relieved to see how alert and cheerful he is. Being back at home makes a big difference.
Well, back to the TV. Take care and keep in touch.

I just checked the weather in DC for Tuesday. It will be 32, but feel like 18. The lucky individuals with tickets to the event have been asked to arrive 4 hours early due to security. With extra socks and an extra layer of long underwear, hats and a pair of good mittens and boots, they should be just fine for the long day they will have standing in the cold. One of my coworkers and her husband are going to tomorrows events.
