Daily Update – March 16, 2022

Good morning! What day is it? A mild Hump Day, of course.

🌹🌻🌼Only 4 days remain until the first day of calendar spring!🌹🌻🌼

Sun ☀ poking through the fog 🌫 and 36 degrees in Delmar, NY. There is a west-northwest breeze at 5 mph. 🍃.

Somewhat of a foggy 🌁 start to the day but already warming up ☀ with temperatures expected to reach into upper fifties by afternoon.

I got down to the express bus stop 🚏 early and now I’m waiting for the bus to depart the station 🚉 so I can get downtown and do my walk before. I want to get in my steps before later so I can go to the store and wash my truck. Hopefully we are mostly done with the road salt now. 🛒

I am also kind of low on a lot of miscellaneous groceries 🧀 although I certainly could mash things together if necessary as I bought extra last week but it’s a good day to wash my truck and I got paid yesterday so I have a few dollars 💵 in my wallet. Gas prices are starting to moderate a bit so I might put $30 in my truck to get through the rest of the month.

I’m glad that the rest of the week I don’t have to dress up for work 👨🏻‍💼 as it means that I can get in my steps on the Plaza early in the morning, take the express bus 🚍 and walk at Washington Park 🏞 at lunch or maybe Lincoln Park. Saturday again doesn’t look good for getting many steps in but I might go to the library 📚. Lately I talk more about going to the library then actually going down there. I think I’m burnt out from those years working remote 💻down at the library. That was a crazy time 🤪 during the pandemic but I sure liked those days working remote from camp.

I was thinking that it was two years ago this week that remote work started with the pandemic. 👾 What crazy time, I wasn’t at all prepared not having internet at home. I couldn’t add data to my phone as I had bought data a year in advance. But especially on the warmer days it was nice working down at the library. 💻 The solar gain through the windshield was nice and warm. Summer was though hot working from the truck even with the shade and fan.
