How fast the weeks come and go. Sun is rising noticeably later now though part of it I got a fairly early start.
Mostly sunny and 62 degrees in Delmar, NY. ☀ Calm wind. The dew point is 59 degrees. Not so humid, nice.
Yesterday was a super busy day 📄 with a million things to do and bringing work home and sitting down at the library outside with the laptop 💻 working until nine.
Got a phone call 📞 right when I was leaving work so I missed the express 🚌 home but the local was an electric bus ⚡ so that was fun. Got my steps 👣 in regardless.
Still chewing over my weekend plans ⛺ especially now that Friday looks more stormy and I can’t leave until around five and I don’t know how busy the weekend will be.
At one level I want to do one last trip to Piseco-Powley Road 🏊♂️ for the year if only because it would be a day away from the email 📧 and phone 📱. But it’s such a long trip with the high gas prices ⛽ and just two days. The pandemic and remote work got me spoiled.
I think we are done with the rain for a while and it looks like a nice late August.

Good morning! What day is it? Hump Day, of course.
The answer is I don’t know but time goes by so quickly these days. Tomorrow I’ll have to pack my truck and go shopping for what is likely my last trip to Piseco-Powley Road for the year.

Out walking 🚶 at six thirty today which isn’t as early as I would have liked but it was another dark morning and I was trying to retrieve the mouse 🐭 I caught that snuck under the stove in the trap. Haven’t got him yet, he’s way under there. With work today I’m not sure if I can do my lunch time walk but between the evening commute and going)library I should be good. 👣
Last night 🌃 I spent some time reading 📖 before going for my evening walk 🚶. Rain stopped relatively early yesterday but it gets dark so early these days. I wanted to get through a few more books 📚 as the ones I got out for summer vacation are due this week. I may get more before I go up north this weekend. Maybe I should do that tonight and go shopping 🛒 and pack tomorrow night.

How much rain everybody asks? 🌧 The answer is not much, maybe a 1/4 to half an inch depending where you are locally, but farther west in Central NY they’ll be getting some good needed rain, though even two inches won’t make up for the recent deficit.
Stayed over at my parents house last night, 🍳 camping in my truck, and having a nice breakfast. 🦌 A couple of small fawns ran out in front of my truck on 312 outside of Clarksville but the anti-lock brakes worked well. They kept the vehicle moving straight and wheels from locking up, though I do wish they had a little more stopping power. 🛻 But with those big wheels … at least I didn’t hit the fawn, although with the lifted truck, who knows how much damage it would have actually dun.
Yesterday was a nice afternoon at the folks house, 👪 after a fairly quiet weekend, spending some time out walking out back and playing with the dog. It turns out it wouldn’t have been that nice of weekend to head out of town, and even if I had gone out to Schoharie one of my Facebook friends was at the campsite I was planning to camp at. 🏕 And Saturday was kind of thunderstormy and rainy, 🌩 especially in Schoharie more then locally. Maybe next weekend.
Still haven’t been able to get that mouse 🐁 that has been causing havoc in kitchen but I’m going to set traps again. I haven’t had a mouse problem for a while, I think it was because I left the door open for a while on a hot evening 🌃. Also I’ve been having problems with the door light at my apartment due to a hornets nest. 🐝 I pulled the light bulb 💡 in hope of finding out why the bulb and then the dark switch wasn’t working. It turned out the only problem was the hornets nest. I tied to get the bulb back in this morning but I dropped it twice after getting stung.
