“Do not wait to strike till the iron is hot; but make it hot by striking.” – William Butler Yeats
We can use all the heat we can get here tonight. We’re 8 degrees cooler than we were last night and it was -22 when I got up.
Just a note to say the Senate committee meeting by TV worked fine, but it wore me out. 2 hours of watching, then an hour doing a summary for Michelle. Tired tonight.

Boy do I feel good. I recalled that some legislative meetings are webcast, broadcast, or taped. Turns out the one I need to cover will be on Channel 17 at 3pm or I can watch it live on the web. God, you gotta love technology. Normally, I’d head into the capitol anyhow just to get the feel of the place, but the hassle of really cold weather and a long drive, capped with a return trip in rush hour makes the couch a much more sensible option.
I finished the seed database today for all the new seeds. Tomorrow I’ll enter our left over seeds from last year. It shows the work ahead in getting transplants ready. Some plants like the mustard greens and huckleberries will go under the lights in the middle of February. In two week intervals until May 1st, I’ll be starting different plants inside.
The weather today is what we usually get in the third week of January, really cold. Paul Douglas, local weather guy, says this air was over Siberia two weeks ago. And it’s still this cold? Geez.
