Tomorrow, I am staying home
Monday was FCB rehearsal. It was snowing as I drove home. 50mph on the freeway and 35mph on the rural roads. Took me over 90 minutes for a drive that usually takes 45. (OTOH, I stayed on the road, which was better than a few cars I saw.) When I went out in the AM, the rear wheel wells on the car were still *full* of snow, and the fronts were not much better. I actually backed the car out of the garage to clear the snow out - don't want that much water in the garage. (only good thing is that there was no salt in that mess, as the trucks weren't out when I went through.) Also at Monday's rehearsal, a screwed up saxophone. She worked fine on Friday when I practiced, but not on Monday....
Which led to Tuesday afternoon's drive to Allen Park (60 minutes, best case), to the shop where I have a service contract on Esme. And then up to Howell (35 minutes) for Livingston rehearsal. Fortunately, on a different sax. But still, driving and playing.
And then today, where I forgot my wallet in my Livingston rehearsal bag and didn't realise until I was checking out at Meijer. 30 minutes from home. So I drove home, got my wallet, went back to Meijer, actually *bought* the groceries, then finished my errands.
I don't wanna go anywhere tomorrow. Staying home Friday would be nice, too, but Esme should be ready for pick up at the shop, and as I'd rather not pick her up Monday on my way to rehearsal, a trip on Friday is gonna happen. J says he'll come with, and we can stop and buy fish for the aquarium.
And today it got to 45F, and they tell us we might see 50F tomorrow. The driveway and the roads were dry today, and I expect that the snow will be mostly gone by sunset tomorrow, except in the piles.
