With the treat of winter weather arriving tomorrow, making preparations for possible inclement weather for work and home. Rescheduling meetings for mid week next week hoping by then weather will improve for those I cannot video conference with. Thursday working outfit mixing suit pant and jackets with a color shirt and tie to bring it all together. Planning on releasing the staff early today so they can also prepare their families and homes.

So got a stripped shirt to go with my striped suit and went with the silver tie and silver tie bar Black and silver pocket square Anyways out for dinner after men’s bible study with the Mrs .

Today's a day that we are planning and getting ready for the impending storm coming over the weekend. We're expecting (as of now) 12"-18" of snow Sunday into Monday. So we are busy making our plans. Making sure that if it comes as hard as they are predicting everyone will be safe and well cared for, and we can be back open for business as soon as possible. We typically don't get a lot of snow here, generally 1"-3" at a time. It's been several years since we've been dumped on, so it's a great time to make sure we have our battle plan ready. a few days in advance so we can make changes.

Again I started with a shirt then sweater then pants. I knew the olive with gold stipe tie would work but admittedly my normal 60 second process of combining things ran a few extra minutes. Then I remembered my blue with brown coat.
