Time for back to work. No more unusual days off this month except for my birthday. Have to work out my vacation times for the rest of the year, though. The vacation cap is now at 200 hours. I finished last month with 180 hours, but I'll have used 16 this month and it's quite possible I actually will be down at about 172 hours (because I don't know if, timing being what it was, my vacation day after Christmas was on that paycheck). Probably take off some time in March, at a guess, but still making up my mind.
Anyway, back to work. I'm just thrilled, not by the work, but by the weather. According to the online info, it's 23 degrees here, but the severe weather warning is all for late this afternoon/evening - snow showers possibly turning to freezing rain in the middle of the night. Our high for today isn't forecast to clear freezing, but it looks to be a fairly steady upward trend after that. Of course, the forecast has been wrong most of the time during this series of storms, so we'll see. It'll probably be totally clear today, then hard-freeze tonight and coat everything in ice; or turn balmy this afternoon when it's supposed to start snowing. ;)
I'm ready to go to work, except for needing to grab my lunch, and wishing it were light enough out that I could, you know, see the state of things. Oh, well, time to go take care of the lunch and all.
