Winter officially begins over night tonight. It snowed today and there is a little snow on the ground.
I hate winter. I just hate it. I want nice weather and sunshine and water and fun back, right now.

We are watching Elf again. Robin the cat is rivited.
Say Robert, how about you play some guitar this weekend?
Okay, if you insist, Robert.
My step son, Harry, is home! He was here when I got home from work last night and it was wonderful having him around. Having kids here makes me happy.
Him being home today means that I am working from the office desk in the cellar instead of the desk in his room. I am a cellar dweller again while he’s home. Today is Friday and I am working from home. Next week I will be in the office on Monday and then I am off for xmas eve, xmas day, and I took a vacation day for the day after xmas. So one day working in the cellar is all I need. I can handle it. Not that there’s any difficulty working in the cellar, I just like being upstairs more. That’s all.
I do have one thing planned for my lunch break down here in the cellar where no one can see me…
I setup a gift wrapping station. Let’s see how much of the remaining pile of presents I can get through while I eat my chicken patty and fries. Bring on the work day so I can get to it. Two working days left before Santa comes. Still much to do in that little amount of time. Let’s do this thing!
Word on the street (pun intended) is that traffic is really crappy tonight. I still have almost two hours to go before I finish work and go out to brave the roads, but I am not looking forward to it.
What I am looking forward to is seeing my step son tonight. He’ll probably be getting to the house while I’m stuck in traffic. All the more reason to be happy about the commute situation (yes, that was meant to be very sarcastic).
I really want to go home now. One hour and 47 minutes to go.
While we wait, here are two pictures I took while putting gas into the car this morning… because that’s related to the overall topic, right?
My wife ordered our Magic Bands for our January trip. If you know, you know. Is the meal plan next?
Oh wonderful. My company gives a holiday gift. It’s a nice gesture but it requires the entire company to come into the office on the day the gift is distributed. I was in a massive crowd in New York this past weekend and I didn’t feel as Covid-claustrophobic as I do sitting at my desk in the office right now. The parking lot is full, it’s super loud with everyone talking at once, and we’re all going to catch the 21st century plague.
Yeah, I am opting out of the holiday gift next year.
Here’s a nice camera-phone sunrise to cheer me up.
It did not cheer me up.
A little over a month away from our next trip South. Let’s just say screw it and go now.
I’m home from work. I’m exhausted like you wouldn’t believe. The scary issue at work turned into a big nothing… for now. That was nice. Still, today took a lot out of me.
Now I have cats to cheer me up.
