Kind of chilly this evening with the wind 🌬️ but I’m out walking because that’s what I do in the evening. One of my eyes 👀 is a bit irritated and I’m tired 😴 as I didn’t sleep well last night as I was a bit bothered by the news of Ward Stone’s passing. The high cost of politics. I think it’s better to focus on making money 💵 and looking the other way as your community is going to shit.

Tonight will rain likely before 10pm, then a chance of showers after 3am. Mostly cloudy 🌧, with a low of 42 degrees at 6pm. 26 degrees above normal, which is similar to a typical night around April 27th. South wind 11 to 16 mph, with gusts as high as 30 mph.

Somebody brought in doughnuts 🍩 to work today and I walked right on by. Sugar is ducking poison ☠ I told myself and walked on by. I don’t need the free food, I’m not starving. Having that bowl of oranges, apples and bananas in my office really helps. 🍊🍎🍌 I eat a couple throughout the day whenever I’m hungry and I have a lot more energy. And if turns out it’s actually cheaper than eating bigger meals. 🍴 Pasta, frozen chicken, sauce seems cheap – if you buy in bulk but it’s not if you end up eating a ton of it, ignoring the health impacts. But if you’re eating fruits and vegetables all day long 🥦 you feel far less hungry. 🤰🏼

Today I found they are extending the 519 bus to Voorheesville. 🚍 Kind of happy 😊 about being able to catch the express in front of my apartment as it makes for an easier commute on session days or bad weather when I don’t want to necessarily walk down to the express.

Saturday I’m thinking of sanding and painting that rust spot on my passenger door of my truck. Figure arrest the rust the best I can while I still can. 🛻🖌️ And maybe do an early morning walk 🚶 down to Norman’s Kills Falls.
