I went to the library after dinner and got participated in the CDTA online focus group 🚍 that’s supposed to send me an $25 Amazon gift card for participating. It was a really odd thing, seemed legitimate but I’ll believe it when I get it. Asked questions about the bus service then asked to click which one I agreed with more. I didn’t have to give any personal information and it was only 40 minutes at the library so I saw no downside. I could sorta do other things in other tabs of the browser. 💻

I also spent some time looking at the DEIS for Crossgates Maul Apartment Complex. 🌎 I don’t understand it all, seems fine to me but Save the Pine Bush thinks it’s important to fight and so do I. I avoid all local politics these days but fighting development in the Pine Bush is a personal cause of mine 🌲🌲🌲. I figure do something good for the community before I eventually leave New York for better places. Try to leave the land at least as good as I found it.

I heard that song, The Crucifixion by Phil Ochs and I had forgotten what a powerful song it truly is. 🎶 Apparently it brought tears 😭 to Robert Kennedy’s eyes 👀 when he heard it too. It still is powerful a half century later. I wish Phil Ochs had lived a much longer life, he could have done so much more for our country. Heck, I think Tom Paxton all these years later is still singing his songs.

As I go to bed tonight, 😴 I was thinking how fast time goes by. But things are only getting better as time goes by. By the end of the year I might be older than the average Albany County resident but there is much to look forward to. Money 💵 is growing slowly but steady at some point I’ll be able to afford my own land, an off grid property and a hobby farm. It’s still years off but not that far. I’m working hard and getting results. I can’t wait for a better tomorrow but wait I must as good things come to those who wait. Good night.

I decided I was tired 😴 so I didn’t make it to the Guilderland Planning Board. I probably could have asked Lynne for a ride there but there was no opportunity for public comment so I didn’t feel really like going this way time. I do a lot for Save the Pine Bush I don’t feel like I have to do everything.

So instead I stayed home and rode the exercise bike 🚲 for an hour and a half then went for my evening walk 🚶. Pasta and sauce for dinner, already out of veggies I need to buy more. 🍲 Read for a half hour. 📖

I decided to make macaroni and cheese again for dinner with ample broccoli. 🍲 I’m trying to cut back a bit on portions lately as I’m not as hungry and I get stuffed too early and I could use to lose weight. I saved a lot for lunch tomorrow so I won’t have to make a lunch up in the morning.

Went down to the library for a while and did some research for John Wolcott’s papers project. 📄 I’m trying to make sure that I have an accurate index 📇 and description of things. Tomorrow after work I’m going back over to his house to do more work on it.

Got home walked to Stewart’s and got moo juice. 🐮 Had a cold glass of milk or two and some frozen blueberries and corn cereal for desert. Read 📖 for a half hour more of the Almost President book. I have going to wear my Don’t Tread on Me shirt 👚 to the library but I don’t want to cause trouble. I’m almost ready for lights out. Tomorrow I have to reply back to Lynne Jackson email 📧 I keep putting off.

Got most of the things I had on my weekend done. 📖 Did a fair amount of walking 🚶 and the new flux pen I got really helps on that cheap perf board that I got and wasn’t taking solder well. I can probably get a jar of flux to refill the pen later on. With the extra flux I should try the lead free solder too. Not great day at Schodack Island State Park, kind of gray but it’s always fun being back along the river there. 🐦

Definitely a cold night with the wind but I turned up the heat before I left for work today and a few more degrees when I hit home so it’s very comfortable. With the mild weather all winter the heating bills have been quite modest. I stayed home and reheated the stuff shells mom made for my birthday 🎂. I rode the exercise bike for a half hour and then read 📖 more of that Almost President book. I played around with some code from the CDTA jquery stream but I doubt I’ll do much with it as I’ve run into a lot of cross origin issues with the browser and caching and fetching the data with my web hosting would be slow. Plus the CDTA website with the realtime map works well enough for me and I’m not that interested in sitting down and spending much more time coding it. 💻 I don’t like computer programming and writing software and scripts as much as I once did.

Not totally sure what the plans are for tomorrow. I have a did sweep the snow off Big Red but she’s covered with ice from the change over. I’m hoping the sun will quickly melt the ice in the morning. ☀ I might still go to Johnstown for the outdoors show but that’s a long trip for a relatively small little show especially if it’s too cold and windy to go skiing or camping there after. I’d almost rather stay home and save the gas if it’s frigid. Might also go out to the folks house tomorrow rather than Sunday as I’m concerned about snow on Sunday evening again.
