Clouds cleared away overnight. They’re due back this afternoon but for the moment the Gulch is frosty…
…and the temperature got down low enough early enough that the mud mostly froze! So my first pleasant walkie in a week. Having done that, I ran a load of laundry to Ian’s. Tobie assumed his throne…
…and at the moment of that picture was acting like a Tiktok queen bragging over the free arugula salad at her Google sinecure. Except he’s far less likely to get laid off any time soon. All was right with his world.
And also with mine. Later today I’m going to the Palace of Food with D&L, probably put up some pork in the freezer when I get back, otherwise there’s not much going on at present.
It looks like a wonderful day out there. You should enjoy these days as much as you can.
I was just looking at some older posts.
Remember the “Uncle Joel Fails Citizenship 101. Again.” post of October 29, 2022? I think this may be your problem…
Starting a few years from now, under the Real ID Act you’ll need a federally approved ID card to open a bank account, get Social Security payments, or take advantage of nearly any government service & travel on an airplane. In most states, that ID is an enhanced driver’s license. Sadly, it looks like your bank is already on board with this. That means some more hoops to jump through in the near future.
