Snow is almost gone

We must have gotten some mutant parsley this year. Normally parsley is always the first herb to be insulted and start to die whenever the temperature and amount of water aren't exactly right, but this year the parsley in our box by the window is still alive and seemingly doing well even though we've had several days with a lot of snow and I completely forgot to water anything when I got sick. Every other herb is long dead.
It's a shame I didn't use the herbs that much this year, DD is the herb specialist and she's been gone most of the time.

It took me longer than normal to recover from being sick this time - I was really glad that I didn't have to decide when I was well enough to go to the office - but I'm finally almost feeling back to normal. Now it's the annoying part of the recovery process: getting my productivity back. I'm not good at being productive without external structures and/or a routine, and right now I'm between jobs and also DD isn't here, the presence of someone else also would have helped. Monday wasn't great, but it's been getting a little better every day. Tidying up and re-organizing my room is still going to take a while.
I'm also annoyed that I finally felt like I was getting into a routine with my running and of course now that's interrupted. Boo. And it's Christmas time soon which is somehow always stressful. But part of that stress is because there's several different events with friends and family so at least there'll be fun times.
