Day 4 - 6 -- Julian Calendar Celebration

A long day arguing with software -- several times the files didn't save correctly, causing me to have to redo the documents. Frustrating. It was a quiet day. Outside snow began to fall in the afternoon -- the small fine snow that can accumulate well. There were about 5-7 cm when I moved it after 6 PM. It was very light snow since the temps had dropped throughout the day. Snow was still falling lightly when I finished the main clearing. Another 2-3 cm fell but it looks wetter and heavier, though temperatures did not really change. We'll see in the morning when I head out for work. Yes -- work on a Saturday morning. This is the exam that was postponed when the campus closed in a storm in December. Mine is just one of many happening tomorrow.

Today is orthodox Christmas Eve. With the cloudy skies, we weren't able to see the first star. It was a quiet calm evening though. I'll have to remember to wish the students merry Christmas when they write tomorrow morning. <smile>. A song that came to mind today reflects the calmness I encountered outside. The arrangement of instruments and voice is lovely. Enjoy!
