Watertown, NY, USA . "Public Square" (vintage, date unknown) but the monument is honoring veterans of the American Civil War so the date of the image is late 1800s

it was another bitter cold day today, although according to the forecast it will stay cold through the weekend and then warm up first part of next week, that is if you think mid 20'sF are warm, but compared to -15*F with a wind chill in the -35*F range, i guess mid 20's is a warm.....
today turned into a very frustrating day........first of all the outbound that was supposed to be waiting for me to load at 8AM, finally arrived at 5:45 PM.......i guess he had some mechanical problems but i think he got lost as well.......with out going into detail i never got it loaded until about 7:30, and then by the time i got the confirms done i left work at 8PM........i hate 12 hour days.....particularly when it's this cold and i spent a large part of the day in the semi-heated warehouse......on top of which the transfer didn't run either yesterday or today.....and so i probably will have to spend sometime either tomorrow or sunday ferrying some supplies from the warehouse in the pickup......i'm pretty well stocked but i know there are a few things i will need to keep production running......and i was supposed to have tomorrow off......rats
well by the time i got home i was both bone cold and very hungry......but decided the cold came first so brewed some coffee and took a long, hot bath.........by the time i got to think about food it was past 8:30, i had planned to broil a steak tonight and fuss with dinner, i rarely do that as dinner tends to be a quick fix meal but with the lateness of the hour decided to opt for a quick pizza instead......i'll have the steak for dinner tomorrow........
i'm tired but i think i'll surf for awhile and play a little blogshares.......too wound up to even attempt sleep......
