Another sleep in day, this time until noon. I don't know if it is because I am so tired, or whether it is my life doesn't change much day to day.
The sun was shining today and a little warmer, so I took Joan out for a little while to break the monotony of sitting at home every day.
We visited Kandulski and had what has become our usual pastry there. It's called Migladowa. The components sliced pecans on top of a creamy substance sitting on top of a layer of Carmel. Below low that is a bed of cake mix. The coffee is better than at Sowas, so that's also a plus.
The snow is gone now, and one can only hope it will return for Christmas.
Concerning Ukraine:
NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte insisted on Wednesday that the alliance has no reason to contemplate a “Plan B” in the event that talks collapse and Washington halts weapons deliveries to Ukraine.
“I don’t think we have to think about that,” he replied when pressed by a reporter during a Brussels news conference following a gathering of NATO foreign ministers convened after pivotal US-Russia discussions.
Rutte underscored that the US remains “very consistent” in backing Kyiv, while stressing: “We expect Europeans and Canadians to step up when it comes to paying for it.”
He also voiced confidence that Ukraine’s partners will have amassed $5 billion in commitments by the year’s end for the purchase of US-manufactured arms – funding intended to keep matériel flowing to Kyiv despite Washington’s freeze on direct military aid. Source-Kyiv Post
