The winds are strong and from the south. It's cold this morning but warming to near 60, but the kicker is that these warm winds bring high fire danger. And pollen. I'm taking Sudafed in low doses during the day today to counter the mountain cedar that is blowing in.

It has been a busy January but I'm titling these threads so they can go for longer periods of time, so this one will run at least through February. We'll declutter the number of new threads here at Mudcat.org that way.

For fitness I'm planning to spend some time working on a computer station that is set at the front of a treadmill. This is something that doesn't get much use, and my using may call some attention to it, but also give me some exercise. I miss telecommuting and all of the things I can get done at home during the day - take time at lunch to go mow the lawn or walk the dogs. I tend to work through lunch when I'm at the library.

Has the snow melted for any of the rest of you yet? Are you able to stir around out of doors at all, or is everyone still house-bound?
