I have a job interview in 15 min. First screening with internal recruiter. Hope I can charm her enough for the next step.
herro!
Spent some of yesterday de-20 speeding my TT bike and replacing it with 1x12 AXS components. A little challenging in the pairing department, but I got it sorted and now have completely wireless shifters on skis and extensions. So cool. Need to dremel out my chainring to fit the shimano cranks but it shall be done. Up early because reasons. May go try on shoes later, but it's nice enough for an outdoor ride today

Boy shipped off to Calgary for a week on an exchange with his ski club. They will ski in Lake Louise and Canmore and explore a different part of the country.
His first trip and he's managed to experience the travel hell that a north east freezing rain/snow storm causes. And early wake-up too... up at 3 am!

Good morning, friends!! I ran 7 miles this morning and have a 10:00 PT appointment this morning, which will probably be my last appointment for a while since I seem to be mostly healed....from this injury, anyway.
Spent yesterday in the kitchen making roasted garlic and rosemary bread + braised beef short ribs. They were tasty no doubt, but neither were good enough to warrant the time spent making them.
Now to work, write a holiday letter, do all kinds od end of year preps, and our anniversary is tomorrow. Yeesh.
final ass grope/massage...?
That Mammoth photo reminded me of why I quit DH skiing and switched to Back Country only. Fuck crowds and lift lines.
anyways no chest pains yesterday, light day at work today. I need to stop surfing the net and make some espresso this morning BRB

Rained a little this weekend..we needed it bad. I shall take the gravel rig out and pedal today. Supposed to be in the 60s.
So a new "friendly" country manager from a country some of my team works in said "Screw RACI" in an email and decided to take tasks away from my team. Now this shit escalated to the board since the board approved the RACI. How dumb do you have to be to write that in an email is beyond me.
Also went to a doctor for flu symptoms. Said my chest hurts from caughing all the time. They decided I'm having a heart attack (since you know 36 years, low blood pressure, thin, having chest pain for 10 days is typical heart attack symptoms) and decided to do tests on me for 2h... WTF

only 2 hours? shit I was in the ER for that for 7 hours Saturday night. but then again I'm an old fart
I mean they did the EKG and they realized my heart is fine. Since you know the doctor was a moron and can't differenciate between asymptomatic pneumonia and heart attack
Yesterday’s milling efforts produced 5 slabs at 2.5 inches thick, 8 feet long and 32 inches wide and pretty sure they weighed about 2fiddy each.
pretty sure it will be enough for the kitchen
Got them stickered in the garage drying out to around 20% then into a solar kiln.

Morning Monkeys.
It wasn't raining on walkies this morning somehow, but I'll take it. It's raining now, holy hell. My back yard is a mud pit and the wife keeps freaking out about muddy paws on the new floor. We got this flooring for this reason, it's waterproof. She can't handle it.
No idea what this week holds other than rain. I might clean out the shed, but I've been saying that for a couple years now.

Ok this is cool. Got weighed when I had my physical 10 days ago and they put me on synthetic thyroxine. I got on the scale this morning and I'm down 9 pounds.
i've gotten fatter since my leg injury because no physical activity.
Did some trail building yesterday and now theres tools in my truck. It continues to be not dry and that means MOAR trail building in my future.
First things first - I use a programmable sequential timer at work and have dozens of them in use out in the field. A couple customers have asked for new/more timers and I discovered the product has been discontinued... DAMMIT now I get to spend the morning on the phone trying to find it's replacement.

Ain't no snowblower gonna blow the slop that everything turned to this morning. Yuck.
The skiers had a great weekend, but pretty sure it is shit now below 8.5K.
Maybe I'll buy an E-ATV, that oughta make someone we know apoplectic.
