Good morning! What day is it? The Day Before State Primary Day, of course. Yes, my Absentee Ballot was sent in weeks ago. Three weeks to Last Sunset After 7 PM 🌆.

Last night I found my selfie stick that I use for making videos. 📹 Even though it’s a very basic selfie stick it does make for much more stable pictures especially when it comes down to bracing it against a table.

Going to a busy next couple of days at work, but I expect everything will go smoothly 📝 or so I hope. Tomorrow will be a long day but like anything the clock will eventually run out hopefully with good results. ⏳

As previously noted, there are 3 weeks until Last Sunset After 7 PM 🌆 when the sun will be setting at 6:32 pm with dusk at 7:00 pm.
