Well…damn, the wind is still howling out here but it’s all the way up to 11 degrees so I guess that’s something…it’s not snowing as it was yesterday but I still do need to dig my driveway out…woke up at 5:03 this morning and then out of bed by 7 and I’m not as sore as I should be with digging through all the drifts yesterday but there is still lake effect snow right now that looks like it’s going to go on for a while….I do need to get the turkey in the brine this morning but I’m not feeling it right now so that will wait until I get the second ride in around 10….the temp is all the way up to 15 so it will be easier to go out to do the snow later….not sure what I’m going to have for food today with running out of ham but I do have an open jar of pasta sauce so maybe some spaghetti and garlic bread? I have a couple of dinner rolls that I can make into garlic bread to go with it….at least my eyes aren’t blurry this morning as they have been for the past few days…damn, I’m getting old…not much to do today…just need to get going here by 8 and get on the bike…I feel fortunate that the power stayed on through the day yesterday but it did blink a couple of times and that was concerning…so I’ll sit here with my fingers crossed all day today as I hear my furnace run….more later…
