Morning cortado. Enjoying our new local indie coffee shop.
A dietary wickedness but delicious indulgence while waiting on an order of Carnitas to go.
It makes me really happy to see the city is continuing to expand our large network of exercise paths. This extension starts at the northern city limits and extends to the east. 🏃♂️
From just below 0F Tuesday morning to nearly 70F Sunday. It is hard to process all that happened from last Saturday.
After diving into this plate of asian comfort food I shoveled off our driveway. Our house faces south so the sun takes care of the front but most of the drive is fully shaded. I feel I earned dessert. 😉
Our dog’s constant position.
The latest from ERCOT makes it sound like added capacity today will be minimal. If the power cuts continue apace part of our house will fall into the 40s tonight. Hopefully homes completely without power will see some relief though.
Our primitive and often sole source of heat today and it will continue tomorrow. Cell service is overloaded so virtually no connectivity when the power is out. Electric consumption in Texas is way down but production is down dramatically. We put 5 blankets on our bed so far.🤷♂️
Electric demand is outstripping supply due to record low temps here which also knocked some power plants offline. 5th outage just now. Power on for 40 minutes then off for 20 minutes. Tomorrow will be worse with temp ~0F. Can’t reply with an image so posting… @khurtwilliams
18F but our daughter and friend are headed out for some cardboard sledding. Still waiting for the predicted heavy ❄️ 🛷
This is a new scam to me. It arrived posted from Canada and was addressed to my wife’s maiden name. It looks like a new variation on the Nigerian scams.
Saw this unusual cloud formation yesterday. Meterologist says they’re just cirrus clouds but he had no idea what caused this configuration. Reminded me of the circular pattern around a hurricane eye (but weather was great!). ⛅️
Second vaccine inbound 💉

I make this cocktail at home regularly but couldn’t resist getting a pre-made one with tonight’s takeout dinner. First time getting a cocktail to go. A nice change as they use a different mix.🥃
