More bus service cuts 🚏

I learned today that they are cutting my bus service once again 🚌and this time it will mean I’ll have to catch yet an earlier bus on those days I don’t ride in, I’ll have to catch and even earlier bus in, though it does mean I can get the earlier shuttle in and be in the office earlier, which means more comp time and less rush, which is good because catching that 5 PM shuttle back from office downtown, πŸš€means I’m always rushing out of the office to catch it. The one good thing is that the evening bus now leaves at 5:20 and 5:50 PM which means it will work much better with transfer. Still I wasn’t happy about that, though coming home, I realized how under priced the bus is statistically when you figure the last fare increase was in 2009. The $1.30 smart card fare today, would have been $0.85 back in 2009, and if they raised the fare to match inflation, the smart card would be $2 to board the bus, and $2.50 cash boarding.

Down at the laundromat tonight. πŸ‘•Just doing the dirtiest camp wash to get through the week, anything I skipped I’ll do when I go out to see the folks on Sunday. But you could own a house, and have your own laundry machine. I guess that’s true, that said, it’s not a big deal to go to laundromat, even if my big truck is big to drive around there. Forgot to put up my tailgate after unloading the kayak, but fortunately nothing fell out or was damaged. Getting caught up with the messages on cars.com, AutoTrader, and Facebook Marketplace but just nibbles. πŸ€‘ Maybe I got to reconsider the price a bit. I just kind of want to get rid of the truck at this point. I would have done some going through the sales when I was on vacation, but I was just kind of busy, had poor reception and I just kind of lost track of it all. Worse part of being at the laundromat is how tight the parking is and worrying somebody is going to hit me.
