Daily Update β March 15, 2022
Good morning! Such a dark morning for the Ides of March but some of that has to do with the time change and getting out a bit earlier for the morning walk 
Only 5 days remain until the first day of calendar spring!
Mostly cloudy and 33 degrees in Delmar, NY. Calm wind. The skies will clear tomorrow around 4 am. Low fifties later, rain
expected late.
Probably the friendly strangers will need to use their headlights this morning so they donβt get into a fender bender with their black sedans filled with candy. Kind of dark and cold to start out the morning.
Some of it is just the clouds. Iβm ready to believe that spring is just around the corner
but then again I realize that live in Upstate NY. May is still a long ways off. The truth is that a month ago it was this dark each morning and only about then was there enough light for the walk.
I was pleasantly surprised when I was able to catch 5:15 local home yesterday. I was sure it was going to be a late night
at work but thatβs fine I was tired
. I keep going to bed
early and waking up early but Iβm just always so exhausted this time of the year. I need some nights out in the wilderness
to restore my sleep cycles.
Itβs nice that the heat is off and I even opened a window for a few minutes but not quite warm enough to sleep with the windows open. Itβs a warming trend though so maybe tomorrow when I go to work I can have my windows open.
Not sure if it makes sense to get groceries and wash my truck tonight with rain expected. Tomorrow looks better. I was home early enough that I could have washed my truck
yesterday and gone shopping
but I figured that was my plan for today originally and hopefully there will be less road salt on the roads tomorrow and less crowds at the big wash bay that fits my big jacked up truck. I also need to buy a few gallons of gasoline
so my truck doesnβt run out not that Iβm driving much these days with the high cost of fuel.
Really need to get some wireless headphones as I no longer have the ability apparently to use the headphones without tripping on them. Amazing how in a few years you just get used to not having a cord.
I use regular headphones with my laptop but for walking or on the bus Bluetooth is so much better. No wires!
Itβs so much nicer going for my evening walk not in the pitch black. Mid winter in the cold it can be so difficult to do the evening walk. Thatβs why I started doing the morning walk β plus back when I was working from home it kind of broke up the day.
Nights do have to get a bit longer and things drier before I can go to the park after work and read
or look at the birds
and wildlife
. It was easier last year with the remote work and being home at quitting time. Now I have to figure the commute into all of that.
