This picture is actually from Saturday, but both days this weekend were unseasonably warm (into the 60s). The snow was steaming, and is now gone. How odd that it was snowing and in the 20s last weekend, and this weekend — the first of Winter — was so warm. That’s New England for you.

I finally felt better on Friday. Still not 100%, but so much better than the rest of the week. I beat the bug! I was glad, because I really wanted to go into work and enjoy the company Holiday Party with my friends and colleagues. I also wanted to go to the hockey game; I
