Regular attendance at church and then a good recovery lunch and a power afternoon nap.
Icing my knee after one mile walk. No (new knee) speed record was broken today, because it was colder outside than I had dressed for and had to come back after first half mile. Whipper then started to whine that it was time for her walk so the last .5 mile was with Whipper and she had to make frequent stops to smell, etc. . . Still make it in 28 minutes.

34°F and cloudy this morning, falling through the day to 23° right now. I guess it's Good Evening now.

We got some freezing drizzle yesterday morning that turned to freezing rain before the temp warmed above freezing around noon. I was out running some errands in it, and slid through an intersection while in Aviston IL to see if the replacement for the broken handle on one of the sunroom storm doors had come in yet. It hadn't, and on the way back home I watched a young driver slide right through that same intersection. She looked considerably less amused by it than I was.

I also got an issue fixed yesterday regarding my car. When I bought it in March of 2020, the dealer apparently didn't transfer over my license plate. There is an item listed on the bill of sale where they charged me $25 to do it, but when I got my renewal notice a couple of months ago, it still listed the old 2014 Kia Soul. The Illinois Secretary Of State Vehicle Services offices decided to close for the first three weeks of January (Covid, I guess), so I went to a local business in town that processes stickers and transfers. They were able to get everything straightened out rather quickly. This car continues to be the worst car buying experience I've ever had.

Today was cold and windy all day. We finally took down all the holiday decorations and put them back in storage today. We downsized this year, so it didn't take half the day.

Glad you're feeling better, Randy.

Drinking hot cup of coffee. 14° with cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 17° with cloudy skies. Made it out to woods. But it cooled off quickly with a good brisk wind. Spent most of out time getting fire going. By the time I left about 1/2 the pile had burnt down. Will go out and stoke it some more. No plans other than fire maintenance today.

Roy, going to be cold here also.

Mostly, I hope you can get your riding numbers up this week. You one day numbers are more that I got in the last 3. One of my new year resolutions was to get some riding in. Well it's my only one.

Don, dress for the weather. It is winter even in TX.

Everyone stay safe and healthy.

Good Morning All.

Good morning, low temp -1 and going to a high of +1°F. Wind WNW 9 mph. Mainly sunny.

I will be out plowing this morning at 9 a.m. Block heater is already turned on. Motor will probably take two preheat cycles this morning. It will start after one, but might as well keep it happier with two.

A town run after I plow, then conserve energy.

Have a safe day all
