I think I need a backpack...

I might have to see if I can come up with some sort of lightweight packpack to use for taking things back and forth to and from work. They are putting the street I live on through, so I will soon be walking to work most days. The bank where I work and the street where I live are one and the same, there was just an unfinished gap in it, now they are finishing it. Not great news as a homeowner as I am going from living on a dead end street to a through street, but it will be nice for walking to work and not much traffic for winter driving, too. It is just over half a mile to the building where I work from my house. It sure is a mess right now. This is what is going on 5 houses down from me at the end of our street. I took these standing in my living room. Isn't it lovely?
