Not snowing. But snow in its piles and layers across lawns, trees, and just about everything but the street still dominates the mind’s intake.
Thirty degrees F. Soft grays infused with whites blanket the sky. Creamy blues enhance the edges above the snowed in evergreens and low mountains.
Today is December 29, 2021. Wednesday. Today, tomorrow, and the day after, and we’re done with 2021. Can stick it in the garage with the other years.
Sunrise crept in more like it was fog than it was sunshine at 7:39 AM. Sunset cometh at 4:47 PM. Sunset is slowly ratcheting back. Sunrise has hit a pause. More daylight is in the offering, if the clouds will let it in.
A 1972 Steely Dan song, “Dirty Work”, is floating on the morning mental music stream. Came into the stream last night as I cleaned the cats’ litter box, harvesting the potatoes. I don’t think much more needs said about that connection.
Stay positive, test negative, wear a mask as needed, and get the vaccine and boosts when you can. Here’s the music. There’s my coffee. It’s like a moment of Zen. Cheers

I adore Steely Dan. Not a dud song in their entire catalogue.
Can’t buy a thrill and Countdown were the first two Dan albums I owned.
When I was a teen I exchanged a homemade flying V guitar I built from bits for those two albums with one of the kids who would occasionally roadie for the garage band we had

That’s a cool story. I just bought the albums. Lame, right? Cheers

Not lame at all. I forked out shekels for most of the others as well.
I am currently on a Two Against Nature kick. But for some reason I heard my daughter humming My Old School from Countdown yesterday while doing some modeling work for a cake.
I smiled.
