It’s supposed to be clear and a bit cooler today, after yesterday’s overcast and then rain. We didn’t get the big storm that was predicted, but some people did. I guess we’ll just wait and see if it’s a nice day.
I had my non-prepping hobby in the morning Saturday. Sold a few things, but didn’t make any real money. Still nice to move some stuff along. I did buy one thing too, and it was an impulse purchase, and over my normal limit for that sort of thing. Oh well.
After that, I put stuff back into storage, and went home. Did a couple of things, then took a nap. Dang glucose intolerance.
Messed around on the computer, waited for D2 to finish her school thing, and then went out for takeout dinner. By then it had been raining a while but was starting to taper off.
Rain gauge says we got about 2.5 inches. That’s more than I thought.
Today I’m sleeping in and working the list. If it’s nice, I’ll do outdoor stuff, if not, indoor. Pretty prosaic.
Plodding even. But incremental improvement is still improvement.
Work on your stuff, and yourself. Stack.

First time I’ve been to the site in a week – been very busy – and I see that I get to beat Denis to FIRST POST. Suck it, loser!
Llama Song performances are more difficult than you’d think, especially in front of a large crowd.
Hey! Good morning, Chicken Boy! Up early for a change? I had a lie-in…
We were supposed to get up early today and do stuff, but W1 didn’t wake me, and snuck downstairs to watch Olympics instead. She is a good person.
Now it’s the crack of noon, and I finally got up, shaved and showered. I really needed the extra sleep, and my fellow man really needed the shave and shower.
Time to investigate the possibilities of bacon, eggs, onions, tomatoes and cheese… Sounds a lot like an omelette, but I might do a shasuka instead.
Good morning, er- day!
Looks like another pile of snow headed our way. I need to get up at o-dark-thirty to snow-blow, because I have an early hospital appointment for a foot operation. I’m taking the train, but my wife needs to be able to get out to pick me up.
It’s a minor-but-annoying condition: I can’t really stay on my feet longer than about 2 hours without pain, due to an irritated nerve. So they’re going to remove the nerve. It’s a bit of an uncertain diagnosis, so here’s hoping that really is the problem. We’re hoping to take a hiking vacation in the fall, with 4-5 hours of hiking every day, so…
Good luck with your operation, Brad! I hope the diagnosis is the right one and that you have a full and speedy recovery for your hiking!
Shasuka it was, albeit a decidedly non-kosher one, with bacon matchsticks and cubes of salami. It is a great dish for emptying the fridge. A handful of fresh chopped parsley and scallions on top, and it even looks gourmet.
58 F and cloudy this morning. Looks like Mr. Fusion is poking himself through the clouds though.
There is only one true fusion reactor in the Solar System. It is only 1.5% efficient according to a noted prof and scaling it down has proven to be incredibly difficult. I doubt that we will produce one that works for more than a week in my lifetime.
Norman Lear wrote a check.
Hollywood stopped trusting Lear creatively after “A Year At the Top” and “Mary Hartman. Mary Hartman”.
Think about who sat at the kitchen table in the Reiner household in the 60s.
If Lear hadn’t written the check, Brooksfilms was at its zenith even if the Brooks himself was past his prime creatively.
“Spaceballs”? Seriously? My generation spent way too much time sitting in front of HBO in the 80s.
@Denis: Hope it works. Feet/foot problems are really annoying. You will probably be off your foot for a couple of weeks. May not be as bad as bone surgery as it just involves soft tissue.
I got a notice from the IRS that my refund has been approved. The money should be at the CU by Wednesday. About a week from filing until the refund arrives. E-Filing is the way to go if money is due, paper file on the 15th of April if money is owed.
