It always feels like a Monday. The hardest day is the first day back after vacation. It doesn’t help that the weather is frigid for mid-October with our mercury maxing out at 5 pm around 49 degrees. I know we are going into the cold season of the year but this is ridiculous. The sunset is at 6:06 pm, much earlier than when I was in West Virginia.

Evening commute, going home time. Relax and breathe and the bus driver will take me home. Traffic is congested as is normal on the 787 construction zone. I’m not driving, so I don’t care. With the earlier sunsets the sun is in our eyes for the evening commute, further slowing down traffic. In two more weeks with the time change, the five o’clock evening commute will be in darkness. Time sure goes by quickly. Winter will be here before you know it – but hopefully will leave as quickly as it comes.

More oil train cars in the yard than I have noticed in recent weeks. I guess even with low oil prices wells are still producing and their products need to be moved to market.

Have a great evening! And remember Monday is rapidly coming to a conclusion.
