Accuweather is crazy. Doesn't anybody have a window???

I got up early this morning, feeling terrific. I put clean sheets on the bed, took all of Steven's junk off the bed - pillows, Superman/Batman comforter, and backrest pillow. The bed was like being in a hotel. The sheets smelled terrific, and I think I only got up twice. 

Did laundry, put in a couple hours on my bike, and watched two episodes of Mare of Easttown on HBO Max. It's pretty grim, but good. Kate Winslet is a tough-talking, hard-bitten police detective named Marianne Sheehan, who also happens to be a local hero because of a winning basketball shot she made 25 years ago, as a high school student.
