Good afternoon! Partly cloudy and 68 degrees in Delmar, NY. β There is a south-southeast breeze at 7 mph. π. The dew point is 48 degrees. The skies will clear tomorrow around 11 am.
I worked 21 hours yesterday into this morning π΄ so my sleep patterns are super messed up especially after my decision to get up early on Thursday to see the eclipse. πThe 5 am eclipse made me end up getting like 4 hours of sleep broken into two hour time periods before working 21 hours which was just awful. These late night legislative sessions are tough as I get older π΄πΌ. I totally get why people retire early in my industry.

This afternoon I have my counselor appointment. π¨π»ββοΈI did my homework, I’m prepared. I’m learning a lot, taking action steps to make my life better. I’m not really sure how beneficial this all is but you don’t have to totally nuts π€ͺ to benefit from some talk therapy – the pandemic has been tough – I’m turning 40 and I need to reevaluate a lot of things in my life especially as I’m now a mid level professional with a good salary. Plus I really need to spend more time discussing my pyromania π₯ and bouncing off ideas on how to make my future better. I want to build on my successes and become a stronger individual. πͺπ»

We will see, I might do my evening walk πΆββοΈas I haven’t done that in a few days although I did do a morning walk earlier.

It seems like lately trucks hanging off bridges in Albany are above historic sites – Fort Orange, Pruyn Library.
It seems like lately trucks hanging off bridges in Albany are above historic sites – Fort Orange, Pruyn Library.
Could it be a sign that maybe God doesn’t like it when the DOT builds expressways through historic sites and demolishes historic architecture – and as such causes the trucks that trespass over such lands to hang off those bridges precariously ?

CARBIS BAY, England — Security is tight in the English county of Cornwall as President Biden and other leaders of the Group of Seven – seven of the world's wealthiest countries — prepare to meet for a weekend summit beginning Friday.
But if you want to catch a firsthand glimpse of Biden, Germany's Angela Merkel or the other powerful politicians, your best bet may be a two-story sculpture that replicates their likenesses using electronic waste in the hills overlooking the resort where they are meeting.

The sculpture, which is drawing large crowds, is arranged like Mount Rushmore — but with the G-7 leaders instead of U.S. presidents.
