Again with the weather. What is it with you and the weather?
Well, actually, the weather is seasonally important to me. Thats a little meteorological humor for today. And today, it is colder than a witches freezer. You thought I was going to something else? Coldest day so far this season I think. Very clear, very sunny, and very cold. I noted the stray dog was under the hay barn and not in rhe hog barn. I assume because it is warmer but you would have to ask him. And he is the quiet type. There is no wind today either. I had hoped to go skiing but I lost my energy somewhere. Even though its cold there has been zero snow for a couple weeks. Some skiing at high elevations but all old pack. Hoping something before Christmas.
I forgot to mention my stupid dog. I know, you are saying which one? Valid question. Jax, let loose in the bedroom last night. Before we kenneled him for the night. That dog truly is a pain. He needs a full time diaper which is also truly a pain. 
New toy, new red jacket. Its cold here you know.
I have no appointments today. Only one thing to do, which is go to Jims and drop off Cindy’s Christmas gift. The one to match what Jim bought her. The first gift I have bought her in years. She is quite flustered. She found out I had bought her something and she thought I had been drinking. Which is funny. I haven’t been. At least not when I bought the gift.
I find myself quite unmotivated to go to work. So I blog instead. I just refilled the candy dish with pretzel M & M’s. It had peanut brittle ones in it. Not as good as they could be. Funny flavor. Which is why I swapped out.
I need to go do my thing. I can only delay so much.
No stops on he way to work. Unless you count turning around 300 yds down he road. I forgot something, and at this point I dont remember what.
Good news. I got to work and client Kim had brought in banh mi sandwiches. They are great. Kim occasionally brings us cream puffs too. Ne dnI say, Kim is awesome and we love her. She is really nice besides. I hardly need to say that.
I spent the balance of my day working in various projects. Nothing too strenuous. Made several phone calls. Spent a great deal of time coordinating an exam for one of our ongoing projects. Had to call and text everybody, it seems, for a simple task to be done. And then I hear the complaints. I really need to hear that. But I was successful in getting everything taken care of.
One more thing, PCWA has been calling. They are the water co up in Auburn. They say I have a past due balance for water use. Right. I have no connection to the meter. But, as it turns out, they charge about $40 per month for NOT using any water. Can I have a big group WTF yell?!! Ya, rhe water company pushed conservation so hard now they need to replace use revenue with non use revenue. What a crock.
Managed to complete more administrative tasks. Its my forte. Spent the last 90 minutes of the day on that.
Headed home. Got all my crap in the car. Forgot my phone. I would like to say I walked straight back in and got it. But, at 630 the door closest to my car is locked on the outside. So Inwalked all the way around the buildingbto the only door I can open. I hate that.
Got home after Emily which surprised me. We made leftovers for dinner, enchiladas and chile relleno again!! Gets better every time we reheat them.
Tonight we went through our yurt order to finalize it. We decided on doors and windows, colors, door type. All the extras. Doing his with my widebis stressful. For some reason she freaks out with things like this. I have no idea why. She eventually calmed down.
After that I read the architects contract and signed it. We are moving all forward on the Auburn house. Maybe we can be yurted up by January. And move. Crazy. Gonna be a big move in all respects.
We are sitting around now. TV and snacks. Soon to bed.
