And then the weather arrived

Rained all day yesterday. Dipped below freezing at about 8 p.m. And overnight it turned to snow. It snowed all day today.

At the end of it all there’s probably 5 inches out there. It varies a bit from place to place, of course. For instance, under our covered porch we have 2 inches of snow.

The ice was the real concern. All that rain is now under the roads. And our road doesn’t get plowed. As in years past, the city sends a truck down our road so that it may play the walking path behind us. They do not plow the road. (We live in the county.) All of the roads are reportedly a mess, though. We’re under the “emergency travel only” advice. Not that I have anywhere to be.

I worked from home today. Interviewed a grad student about his research via Zoom. I had another long Zoom where we designed an ever-growing television show. It was supposed to be a one-off last year, but it never works like this. They always come back, and we always make them bigger.

And I finally logged off at 8:30 p.m., on a day when I worked from home.

So let us review:

Monday 9-5
Tuesday 10-8
Wednesday 10-8
Thursday 9-8:30

I’m not really sure how that happened. I was doing work, looked up and it was almost 5 p.m. And I still had to prep for a morning meeting. Tomorrow, I’ll manage to get up to an easy 48 hours for the week. At least I didn’t have to risk life, limb, fenders and insurance rates for the last two days.
