This morning I shall go to the getting place - in the dark so that I don't have to go any other day this week.

We shall see how that turns out.

I can't tell if there is any frost on the window, but my guess is yes. So it will take me a bit to get going.

We have some black ice out there, but it's a little bit foggy because the temperature is already at 41 degrees so the rest of the slick patches will be gone eventually. More arctic cold coming in this evening, though.

TOD

I haven't gone out on New Year's Eve in ... wow, I dunno, I was going to say 20 years, but maybe longer ago than that.

In the 1990s I went into the city a few times, to various destinations with various people, and that was great fun, but I always took the train. Which was a special kind of fun in itself. Wouldn't do it any other way. (One of those times, the cars were so packed with merrymakers on the return trip that the conductor(s) didn't even TRY to collect tickets. Free ride.)

We used to have a soup-tasting party at my church. Everyone came, and we had a great time. We'd play games and go out and yell at midnight.

Attendance went down a few years ago, so they discontinued it.

I have to run out today for a couple of quick things. It'll be my first time out since last Tuesday night. After today, I can probably avoid going out again for another three or four days, which is great.

Whew.....I have a feels like of 2 degrees.

Still warmer than DR singdaw's repor.

There was only a bit of frost at the bottom of the windscreen. So with the defrost on, that was gone by the time I hit the highway.

There was a bit of snow.....but the wind was brutal. I didn't know whether to hold on to my cart or my hat - I was in danger of losing both.

Then I got to The Dollar (25) Tree and the hours had changed. Now they don't open until 9 a.m.

It was only 8:30 a.m.

So I went to Meijer to get my juice.
