We had a bit of snow that day, and for some reason he loved snow. Hated rain, but loved the snow. I can’t stop crying.

Fire tonight. seems that every winter in Norwich we have at least one big one. This one was at the sober house on Prospect St.

I heard the first engine and it stopped close, so I looked out all the side and back windows, then went to front windows. Yup, two plumes of smoke, from front and back windows, I know a bit about fires, but I could see no flames but the smoke was “tight” so it was pretty close downt he street. about oh maybe 5-10 minutes later, more sirens, so I look and still plumes. Then a few minutes later, the sirens in the distance, plus the old school sirens, and when I looked out, uggh.. flames jumping up. big flames. So I headed down the street, and it is a blaze. I get all the way there, realize I should have taken my camera. Watched the blaze really soar out of the front of the house. man… so I walked briskly back to the house, 5 blocks, uphill, got the camera, and drove back down. No, I am not going to walk back up the hill. I take a few shots, but the camera is not liking exposure, and I remembered I had gone down to ISO200, so I bumped it quickly to ISO800, and got some more shots, I also opened the flash for some, and they, with some exposure help in photoshop, are the clearest, but grainy like 800 film would be. The one shot of the firemen on the trucks was only bumped up a little, and it is pretty focused. All were handheld.

and so with that… good night.

This adult male, normal looking by all other norms, wearing fleece polar bear and snowflake pants, and slippers, at local grocery store. Had a regular jacket and shirt on, and hat. I guess I’ll never be hired as a stealth photog, too shaky, but you can see the polar bears. Sigh. People of walmart candidate?

Yeah, the required corndog and beer. Then a pretzel and beer. Then cheesesteak and beer. I love ballpark food. We are going to go down for playoff game, and I’ll try some sushi and some pulled pork. Yum

We went to yankee stadium yesterday. Under threatening skies. Got there I’d say about 4:30ish. Yeah it rained. And yes we stayed. And ate. And left in the 6th since it was past 10pm. Missed Cano’s grand slam :( .

Did a ride in Pachaug forest. Nice day. Crisp, clear. Felt good to be on the bike again. But street tires are not meant for offroad, and can barely handle dirt/gravel/sand forest roads. Guess they will have to do for now, since setting up two bikes is a bit too much for the budget. Now the plan is to get out there 2-3 times a week to ride until the snow falls. I will try for Wednesday morning.
Yeah, got that little wobble in the legs now. It’s going to be a long road back to fitness. On the road, somewhere.

The dwarf sunflower is growing. The resident deer have been too busy stuffing themselves with acorns, so have ignored these guys. It has to be a seed left over from last year’s flowers, as nothing was planted this year with all the turmoil in my life. So it grows. Looks good. Even after the sun has gone behind the trees/garage. Sweet

It is! But I keep wandering back to thinking of Jed, sitting in a cell. I hurt so much for him. So very much. I miss texting him that his mom loved him, randomly during the day. I miss the random visit just to say hi, and the hello and goodbye hug he gave me every time. It’s going to be years before I can have that hug again. And that hurts so deep. Not onbly will Jed be a scarred person the rest of his life, I will be as well. It is as if my life ended on that day. But it is a very nice day outside today.
