Another weekend, another ice storm in the forecast. Joy.

Looking at the most recent maps, I’m hopeful that it won’t be terrible in this corner of the world, I’m also kind of bracing for the worst…again. Sure, we were only out 36 hours last weekend, though when reviewing history, two weeks out is not an unrealistic expectation.

I really hope the power company guys didn’t half-ass last weekend’s repairs, is all.

Not really much to say; I’ve been working and reading and sleeping, and eating the leftover curry I made before the power went out over the weekend. Got one or two decent hikes in this week, but honestly, it’s mostly been a blur of meetings, snoring, feeding, and the occasional tree.

My workplace, should I ever go there again, is on a four hour delay this morning, and the local schools (such as they are; my kids are virtual) called today off as of 1pm yesterday. I expect my lovely spouse’s teaching gig will be cancelled tonight as well. I’m hoping that’s an overreaction, and this will all amount to very little, but you know how it is.

I would absolutely love it if the meeting that popped up on my calendar running from 3-5pm gets tossed by the wayside as well – I need to train the people in the new organization that I’m an early bird and don’t like take take meetings after 1:30pm or so.

Given all the previous, *I* don’t have huge plans for the weekend. Others have stuff on the agenda, though I’ll not comment further, for fear of jinxing it for them. There may be some news later; we’ll see.

That’s it, honestly. So very little content for your price of admission, which is nothing, so I’n not feeling to guilty about anything.
