We get to be above freezing for the first time in 5 days today. Hopefully the last of the ice and snow melt off.

Every few years, I get a sinus infection. I know the symptoms so well I can call my doctor and get a X-pack of steroids and that just cures me. I don't even have to go in and have them look up my nose and say, yep, you have a sinus infection.

I started having my alarm system monitored by a local company. There were bought by another local company, and they were bought out and then that company was bough out by ADT. ADT has raised my monthly rate several times, and the last bump was the end of my tolerance.

I called another local company, and today they switched me over to their service and replaced the two video cameras with HD cameras and they even have speakers and a microphone. And my monthly bill goes down.

My 14 steps down the hall commute to work was extra nice today. There is a glaze of ice on the ground. Not very thick, but enough lots of people are crashing into each other and sliding off the road. My cars are warm and safe in the garage.

It is just now getting up to 32, so the ice should go away fairly soon.

The body shops are all doing a happy dance with lots of new business coming.

The new alarm company changed out the video cameras with much better cameras. Full HD.

I have the "area of interest" defined and if there is movement in those areas I get a notice, and a video of what it is. So when Amazon delivers something, I see it before Amazon notifies me. Anyone approaching the front door will activate it. And as they approach, the camera whistles, hopefullly to get them to look at thee camera.

If there is anything in the driveway, same thing I get a notice. The other night just after midnight, a cat walked across the driveway. The system identified it and an animal, and when it whistled the cat look at the camera, and and it decided to turn around and go back to the direction it came from.
