For the record, 26 degrees. The Hummingbirds are pissed that their feeder is frozen.

Back from a bank run. Called the teamsters for my withdrawal card. Talked to the business agent about some monies I feel I was shorted. Nothing ventured nothing gained. They already laid me off and I already resigned. What can they do ?! Fire me ?! Lol.

A chilly start to the day here. Sun is out, might see some thawing. Roads are lie polished glass here from the blowing snow. Hopefully winter is about over everywhere.

Stan is so short now he has to stand on a nickel to see over a dime!

Apparently a truck jack knifed on the I-5 bridge and traffic is biblically horrible. Such a shock. I would imagine that bridge ices up in weather like this.

I didn't get a chance to update on Layla's driving test. She failed instantly. Missed a left turn, panicked and turned into the oncoming lane. Thankfully, no traffic was present. Next test is on Tuesday. She begged me to let her stay home from school. I dropped her off at school anyway, said she needed to get used to disappointment and still push on.
