Cup of Joe right off, Left a warm bed!
Put off going out, wet sticky snow, hard shoveling!
No plowing on side roads, w/ high in 40s melting!
Sure was a slog, down Askum's lane.
Missed the usual company!
But life seems to motor onward.
Found my own way back to the Red Door!

As I insert another 8 track into my timeline player,
Sunshine, and blue skies adds depth to new day.
Appears Winter decided to hang around,
Snow predicted for the night!
Twas nice not being quite as bundled up this day.
Hint of green in fields and lawns.
But I, losing my brown!

Damp clammy as I headed out red door!
Down Askum's lane leaving prints with each step!
Snow disappearing, quickly! Pond melting!
Splattered glasses, damp coat!
Walk quicker, way less photos!
Life lumbers onward, none the less!
Cardinal in full song, Telling of impending Spring!

Sen. Kim: "The people I talk are thinking about their grocery prices, housing prices. They're not thinking about how much money American corporations are going to make off of higher oil prices, because that's just gonna raise all of our prices at home. That's where the president is just so detached"

Up in near dawn, Brain fog, toasty from the bed!
Cup of Joe, wander empty home!
Geese on Ice, snow vanishing quickly now!
Buds beginning the swelling!
Birds breaking Winter's silence!
Found the logs Askum left behind.
Down the lane, mud and glistening water,
todays sprinkle!

Nothing changed. Tried all 'my' tricks.
Nothing doing! Finally called a tech.
Nice guy, found an app was filling up w/data.

Was nice out though!
