8 January 2022 melting Sunday

[KathyB]

As far as I'm concerned, this ice can't melt fast enough. It got up to about 50°, which was enough to melt a lot of it. We are going for very short walks because of my ankle injury (see daily thread for Thursday, January 5, for more information). I put a pee pad on the living room floor, and it got peed on. While I'm glad she's able to use that during the time I'm partially laid up, I'm hoping she doesn't make it a habit, and start relying on that instead of peeing outside. She stops many times on our walks to go pee.

Meanwhile, my ankle is a lovely shade of purplish-black.
