The kid’s school has been cancelled for a second day due to single-digit temperatures. Walking out to get our mail quickly had me agreeing with their decision.

Our local birds (apparently, starlings) made the most of the sun with today’s single-digit temperatures.

Start with a relatively small number of people to follow, see who they’re linking to, try following some of those people, and keep branching out from there. And always pruning and maintaining.

A tried and true recipe for discovering, and keeping, people you enjoy reading. My decades old RSS subscriptions and bookmarks are as reliable as the day I added them because I didn’t offload them to aggregators, feeds, or apps.

We really miss being able to directly feed our local birds so it’s exciting to see that our trees are up to the task. A group of house finches came by the window while I was admiring the snow.

As much as I love the snow, I’m glad I only have a cat. 😸
