beautiful snow aloft

twenty-seven years and one million words

Kokubunji, 2025.02.19

I've been involved in a process by which we're leading 14-hour days for this thing everyday at work. It involves being in a basement from just after sun-up. I managed to slip away to buy some lunch today because of my reduced duties on this eighth day. It was about eight degrees as I made my way to a nearby "Maruetsu" and bought lunch. Looking up, I could see bright white snow blowing on the wind at about five hundred meters elevation under mixed cloud cover. It was breathtaking.

Three reasons to be thankful:

  1. Almost done with my obligations!
  2. The Boy is OK with my missing his final game as captain of the all-star basketball team for western Tokyo last week
  3. I've certainly learned a lot while doing this
