It was a Monday. 🏢 Not a bad one, I was home by around 6:20 zapped some food 🍲 I had previously froze and had dinner. Out for the evening walk 🚶 and then it’s off to bed 🛏 for the night. Another mild night though cooler weather than recent.
Tonight will rain and snow likely before 1am, then a slight chance of snow between 1am and 3am.

It’s a nice night 🌃 for the evening walk 🚶 with some snow 🌨 coming down but not really sticking to the pavement. Salters are out so it wouldn’t be a good night to wash my truck plus I’m tired. I’m thinking Thursday will be mild but will things be really salty come the cold blast?

My phone is still dropping out 📶 a lot at home 🏡 but not other places. Seems like it’s happening less frequently now and it’s not that I’m getting throttled because when I’m connected to other towers I’m fine, locally it just keeps breaking up in the general area around home. First time this has been an issue since the start of the pandemic.

I was noting it is only three weeks until President’s Day Weekend. 👴🏻 I’m thinking that would be a good weekend to get away – and maybe tack on a extra day if the weather allows. Snow makes it hard to get away to a lot of places in the back country but I have options. There is always Rennselearville but I’m a bit tired 😴 of that.
In four weeks on February 27 the sun will be setting in the west (260°) at 5:43 pm,🌄 which is 36 minutes and 9 seconds later then tonight.
