In the morning walk to the office. Work all day on a variety of tasks. Walk to the post office to drop off the outgoing mail. After I return home it starts to snow. It is light at first and then gets heavier and heavier. It turns into a fairly significant snowstorm. Watch “Wonder Woman 1984” (2020). Not a good movie. Not at all.
Work until I get tired
In the morning drive down to the lagoon. No ducks. The seed from yesterday is gone though. Go to the office. Work all day. Get a bunch of stuff done. Work until I get tired. Walk to the U.S. Bank tower. Make a deposit there. Walk home. At night sweep all of the shells from the parking lot where I have been putting down piles of bird seed for the Juncos. Lay down a fresh new pile of seed for them. Go to bed early.
Lakefront at sunset
In the morning walk down to the lagoon. No ducks. Squirrels are there though. In the afternoon walk up the Oak Leaf trail to Capitol Drive. Stop at Culver’s for a hot fudge sundae. Walk home along the lakefront at sunset. It is gorgeous out. At night walk around downtown while listening to the Packers stomp all over the Tennessee Titans 40-14.
No ducks again
In the morning walk down to the lagoon. No ducks again. In the afternoon walk back down to the lagoon. Still no ducks. Get very tired at sunset. Decide to remain on the couch and surf Youtube. Go to bed early.
The kids are very excited
In the morning drive down to the lagoon. It is really cold. No ducks. Later that morning walk back down to the lagoon. Still no ducks. In the afternoon drive to Heather’s house. Listen to the Milwaukee Bucks tipoff against the Golden State Warriors. Arrive at Heather’s house. Go in to open presents and eat a delicious steak dinner. The kids are very excited to open the presents I got for them. Watch the Minnesota Vikings get crushed by the New Orleans Saints on Bryce’s iPad.
Fly right past me
In the morning drive down to the lagoon. Put out seed for the ducks. Walk down there two more times during the day. They are always waiting for me. Along the way during the second walk to the lagoon, a group of geese fly right past me. What an amazing sight! Go to the office for a bit to work on accounting. Clean the kitchen at night.
Hide and seek with Xena
In the morning drive down to the lagoon. Put out seed for the ducks. No geese are there. Go to the office. Work all morning. Do a couple of court hearings using my desk computer. In the afternoon drive to Lorena’s house. Drop of Christmas presents for her and Xena. Play hide and seek with Xena. She is constantly laughing and smiling. I have never seen a child so full of positive energy. When I leave she runs to me and hugs me goodbye. At night go to Orangetheory.
Standing or sitting
In the morning drive down to the lagoon. There are no ducks there. Start to put out the seed anyway. Then suddenly the ducks begin to drop out of the sky. They gather one by one until the whole gang is there. Drive to the courthouse. Go in for a sentencing hearing. It is real court. After it is over step out in the hallway to do a Zoom hearing. It is unreal court. Drive home. Walk back down to the lagoon in the afternoon. There are a handful of geese there but no ducks. They are either standing on the ice or sitting in the spots where the water has opened up. It has been a little warmer recently and some melting has taken hold on the lagoon. Walk home. Get super tired out of nowhere. Go take a nap. Slowly recover enough to get back up and watch you tube videos before going back to bed.
Being a lawyer in 2020
In the morning drive down to the lagoon. Put out seed for the ducks and the geese. Drive to the courthouse. Run around all morning doing live hearings while I have earphones in so I can drop in and out of Zoom hearings. It is a frantic mix of the old and the new way of being a lawyer in 2020. In the afternoon return for a second round. Later go home and lay down on the couch and zone out. At night go to Orangetheory. There are several gorgeous women there tonight by the way.
See a bunny rabbit next to my car
In the morning sweep up the shells from the bird seed I have been putting down in the parking lot for the dark eyed Juncos. Put down to fresh batch of seed. Walk down to the lakefront. Put out seed for the ducks and the geese. Do a water change on the fish tank. Trim the plants a bit. Clean the debris out from under the rocks too. In the afternoon walk up the Oak Leaf trail to Capitol Drive. Stop at Culver’s for a caramel sundae. Walk home as it gets dark. Listen to NFL games. When I get back home look to see a bunny rabbit next to my car eating the bird seed I have put out for the Juncos!
