Saw my first "I bought this before Elon went crazy" bumper sticker on a Tesla this morning.

I live south of DC and commute down I95 every day so Teslas are a dime a dozen. This one got a smile and a nod out of me.

The hardest part is waiting for them to cool....

Just shy of 9 am on this Sunday morning and I'm making brownies.

Just regular ones. My job has rules against the "enhanced" brownies.

Happy Friday, Skykin. I'm taking a lunch break and catching up on all the happenings whiler recovering from a bout of food poisoning. That was no fun and I had a bit of a rough night, but it was not horrible. Contacted the company of the suspect food and will wait to hear from them.

Good morning, Skykin. Off to work in a few minutes with snow forecasted. Still no idea how much. We're about 20 minutes south of DC. I guess I'll jump into my workday and get as much done as I can.

Be safe out there!

It has been so freaking chaotic at work the last few days that I tried to sign on to my computer a minute ago and I forgot the password I've been using for three years.

Anyway, it's snowing in Fredericksburg so the commute home will be fun.

Thursday morning Nancy would like to thank Wednesday evening Nancy for remembering to put the windshield cover on the car. The ice wasn't bad but the cover meant the windshield was clear so I didn't have to scrape or defrost before leaving for work.

A plush rockhopper penguin toy

Behold Pengu. I saw him at a thrift store yesterday. Had to have him, even though I'm an owl gal and not a penguin gal. He got stuffed in the bag with my boys' purchases & my daughter found him and asked if she could have him. Of course I said yes. He's a Jellycat plush.

Yes, terrible tragedy. There is so much going on in that congested airspace. It will take time to find out why the helicopter did not judge the positions correctly.

They were aware. They asked the helicopter if they saw the flight. The pilot responded that they did. Air traffic control directed the helicopter to pass behind the airplane which was on final approach for landing.

The ABSOLUTE worst time for a DC area resident to go to Costco was today after church let out and before the Commanders' NFC Championship game.

Guess where I was today after church let out. All cause my daughter wanted a slice of Costco pizza.

Just stumbled into a Live on Substack with Alexander Vindman. Very pleased that he is doing that. I plan to stay engaged on a state level here in Virginia. I feel like I can actually help.
