Lazy Saturday

Not too much going on today... metro is still on strike, so we can't go too many places. We went to the park for a morning run, came back had breakfast, went to the post office, went to the market (did NOT buy plums, though!), had lunch, and now I'm making brownies to take this afternoon. I am not sure how many people will be there, but I wasn't sure the apple cakes and questionable plum pecan loaf cake were enough. Fortunately the metro is running from Charpennes to the end of the line east-bound, so we'll just walk one stop east and then take it the rest of the way to church this afternoon. There really isn't anywhere other than church that we go east of us. This strike is a really big one- "they" say they are going to have different things closed each day until January. Not sure if it will really last that long- it sounds like once enough people get mad about it, they end up stopping the strike. Luckily we don't need the metro to get to our schools... but if SNCF (the national railway system) goes on strike, we'll be in trouble!
