The sun came out today, and I can clearly see two construction cranes. One threatens my view of the Old Post Office Building, and more concerningly, the other threatens my view of the Washington Monument. But that’s certainly completely out of my control.
Gratitude
I am grateful for the view that I have enjoyed for the last nine years. I hope the buildings will be much shorter than the cranes. If not, I have lots of “before” pictures out that window.
The sun warmed things up to about 45° this afternoon. And, I made it out for a quick lap around my regular exercise route. The Taco Truck is still operating, The Party Store is closing, Einstein’s Bagels is still open as is Starbucks. So, the neighborhood survives.
The week between Xmas and New Year’s is just weird. Everyday seems like it should be some day that it isn’t. I am sure that it’s Saturday. But, it’s not.
