I am so tired this morning. Took the dogs out for a quick walk and ran into the maintenance man so he came on over to look at my exhaust fan. It isn’t the switch so he will have to come back another day to change out the fan. He knew I am tired and said it would probably take an hour or so to replace the fan so I was quite happy about him not doing it today. I need to get to sleep.
The sun is shining today though it is only 37 degrees outside. As I drove home I noticed the mist rising off the river as though it too protested the drop in temps. I took a couple of pictures but of course they won’t be as vivid as seeing it first hand. Winter is rising from its slumber to embrace the north once again whether we want it to or not. Really, I wouldn’t have a beef with winter if it weren’t for driving on ice and snow.
A few trees are starting to change colors – in another week or two the whole area will be celebrating the season with striking oranges and fiery reds. For every time there is a season – nature needs to rest so it can prepare itself for rebirth this coming spring.
Panera turned on their fireplace so that made stopping in for some soup and coffee even more appealing. I hope to stop on my way to work tonight. I did request to be off at 11pm but will have to wait till I get there to see if it was approved or not. I really shouldn’t take the time but I am soooo very tired. If they don’t approve it, that will be fine – I forgot one of my coworkers was off tonight already. I emailed work and told them not to worry about it, I changed my mind. Even though I really want tonight off, I need to work and save the time for other things.
