New Year is off and running wild already

 The weather is a condition not an excuse, I know. However, Cold weather and pushing yourself can land you in that spot of land where there is a lot of granite. So, I stay in and clean up old files and review new ones. Today, I spent most of the day putting out little fires as a result of AI training and some customer service agent that assured me that my concern would not happen. Then, I get a letter, that it did. Not once, but twice. All I know is that I hear a lot of "I'm sorry" from customer service lately.  That does not get it with me at my age. It seems there are not many people that pay attention to detail any more, but then, in a barber shop, I found one that reminded me so much of my dad, a detail man in every thing he did, that it was hard to hold in the emotions. So, it did help to see that there are a few of those people left today.

Yesterday, I got out and had a wonderful time. It was a delightful day in the 60s. Today, the rain came. Tonight, the Polar cold front that is passing us will make it to the Gulf. The operative word here is "Polar". Tomorrow, will be our first hard freeze of the season. Highs will be in the low 40s but the kicker here is the 45MPH gusting winds from the northwest. It will move out fast and Wednesday, the 50s and 60s are  back for a couple of days before another system pushes us toward a longer-lasting spell of cold weather.  My doctor's appointment will be surrounded by winter on all sides. Never fails. Made the appointment two weeks ago because my doctor could not see me the same day my other doctor's appointed occurred. 

So, while I got some interesting pictures from yesterday,  I  am not totally done editing  the batch as of yet. 

Here will be a few of left overs from 2023 that AI finished using as their training target.

It All Started in the wee hours of May 28th when 80 MPH winds was tossing everything against the side of my house.

 Those winds were substained for well over 40 minutes. The results were trees everywhere down or large branches broken off. One of my bus ro...
