And now, to bed.  It's back to work and I have a lot of stuff to ketchup on.

Good night, all. 8)

And a big sincere HHW congratulations to BK upon finishing the new book!

This is wonderful news.  Truly exciting.  And now I have four (count 'em) Hofstetters ahead of me, not just three!    :)

AND an entire book from start to finish, in exactly three weeks!  I can't imagine writing one in three years.  Never mind three weeks.  Incredible.  My hat is off.

Morning.

It was in the 70's and sunny yesterday.

Right now I'm cold.

Don't figure.

The old home phone and internet are gone.  New wireless line and internet are in.

Now, who do I give my new phone number to ????
Within 2 days someone I do not like knew my home phone was disconnected.  Not one person in 3 years from my weekend meeting has ever called me at home.  And within 2 days she reports me as being the IGR rep with a disconnected phone number.

She can bite me.

Very, very cold this morning, plus we had a brief snow shower overnight that started as freezing rain.  I spent close to 10 minutes scraping the windshield and windows before driving off to the train station.

Today is the 75th anniversary of the premier of Thornton Wilder's OUR TOWN at the McCarter Theatre in Princeton, NJ. 

To celebrate, I will not forget to take my rubbers.

Yes, they're calling for "something" on Friday.  Don't know what kind or how much.

Got a half-inch or so last night.  Just scraped a tire path through it with the shovel, and the snow's so light and dry that I might be able to clear the rest with the leaf blower later.
