September 9, 2020 Morning

Good morning! What day is it? Who knows, I remote work πŸ’» and I’m salary. ⏰ So it doesn’t matter. Or as they asked at the start of the meeting yesterday, what county is Andy in this week? I was noticing that still no 719 bus 🚍 or most of the commuters routes because there are so few commuters six month in the pandemic. Foggy and 60 degrees in Delmar, NY. Calm wind. 🌫 The dew point is fifty-nine degrees.

I woke up this morning a bit stiff and sore. πŸ’ͺ🏻 Probably Lyme disease or maybe the weather. I don’t know. I’m hoping that I will be feeling better later in the week. I did get a good night’s sleep last night. πŸ› I was going to go for my morning walk but today. That or I’m just getting old.
