Good morning! Happy Pink Moon 🌕! I don’t see much sign of last night in the clouds and I’ll doubt we’ll see it tonight. Next Wednesday is Tax Day 💰. I got fix something on one of my tax forms if I can get the state tax department website to work.

Not a real nice day compared to yesterday but better than the forecast for tomorrow. Clouds and 46 degrees in Delmar, NY. ☔ There is a north breeze at 5 mph. 🍃. Temperatures will drop below freezing at Sunday around 1 am. ☃️

That said the queche I made today was pretty good 🍳 although probably not the healthiest using corned beef hash ♯ with lots of veggies and peppers. I’m trying to come up with more meal ideas 😍, I’m tired of the same things everyday.

Things are kind of wet and gray this morning, 💦 it rained for a while this morning and I’m not encouraged to think it’s going to be a real nice day. I have my work laptop and will just work from my bedroom today as much as I really resent bringing work into my home. That said, I’ve figured out how to build a nice set with lights and my pride flag for Zoom meetings at work 👥. I expect a busy day today as I continue to work on the report for work – 📝 it’s good to start getting back into the routine of things.

I woke up this morning and felt kind of sick with a sore throat and nose 👃 bothering me but the magic Claradin D pill 💊 helped me feel better. As did the queche. 🍳 I think it’s a mold allergy working from home but I don’t know, it seems to get worse when I’m home all day. I doubt it’s COVID 19, as I have no fever and it’s been going on going for four weeks now. That said I do look forward to things getting back to normal sooner than later. 🌈

Today will have a slight chance of showers. Mostly cloudy 🌦, with a high of 57 degrees at 3pm. Two degrees above normal, which is similar to a typical day around April 12th. North wind 3 to 5 mph.
