I have three slow leaks in automotive snow tires.
One goes flat after 2 days, the others drop about 10 psi in the same time.

I guess first job is check the valves for leaks.
Then pull them off and do a physical inspection for any imbedded pokies.
Followed up by the soapy water spray bottle routine depending upon what I find with eyeballin'.
Best part is it is 3 / 37 degrees out with a mix of rain and snow.

Yay.

present. coffee. day 2 WFH for 2022. kids are having trouble getting back on schedule, they are usually up by 7. i guess their first 2 days of school wiped them out, both of them slept past 7:30 and I had to wake the boy up.

If my dad had to wake me up after the alarm he would throw a pitcher of ice cold water on me. Good times.
he's 6, and I rarely have to wake him up. he generally wakes up at a very reasonable time for a kid his age and both he and my daughter (4) are typically well enough behaved that the wife and I don't need to wake up with them right away.

my neighbor's kids are about the same age. if they sleep past 6am its a miracle. they are apparently usually up around 5:30.

If aluminum rims, corrosion at beads could be an issue...

I was up at 4:30 to drive the wife to the airport. She is spending five days in RonDesantisville. I told her to bring me back some omicrons. After I dropped her off, I swung by the high school and ran for an hour on the track (8.3 miles). I got it done before the freezing rain hit, which I am happy about, and now it's a mess outside.

I walked the asshole greyhound twice before I drove into work and she would not poop. I expect an indoor pile to be waiting for me when I get home from work. Fortunately she is pretty good about hitting the pads when we put them down.

3 of my 4 tires leak because of the corrosion on the beads from the cheap chrome flaking off. I need to have the tires pulled and clean them up since Les Schwab just goops it and it never holds.

Haley is testing my patience to throw her into a wall this am. Let alarm run super loud for almost 10min and still not get out of bed until Wifey got up to turn it off and make her get up. Then she didn't get up for 15min more until next alarm went off and I stood there until she crawled out. Proceeded to take 20min to make and eat half a bagel at that point we were already going to be late to drop her for orchestra. Then took 5min to walk upstairs and not do personal care. 1hr and we left with her having eaten half a bagel.

So... Karting is cancelled for a week. Crying. FTS. Have kids they said...

Not busy but have shit to do today. Really could use a lotto win at this point.

What's the break even point on the pass?
If it's similar to other passes, about 5 days...
Anything after 5 days is basically free. This years been so fucking weird with the late snow, and then the days that have been powder days have either been holiday skiing or days I've been unable to go (Supposedly a good powder day coming tomorrow, and guess who has an oncologist appointment :rolleyes:) have just kind of sucked away my motivation/enthusiasm this year. Feels like I pissed away 500 bucks but I'm just not feeling it.
