- Start date
Up since 4:30, guess I'll go to the office early and leave early. Snow later.
We got over 3" of rain yesterday, slight break today more heavy rain coming tonight. the trails will not be rideable for a long time. on the plus side the snowpack is great and it should make for some great fishing on the streams this summer.
Must have had a good workout yesterday as my whole body feels worked...win

This winter is sucking ass so far in western NY. Forecast is calling for 30-40s for the next week or so. The local ski mountains are starting to hurt pretty bad for snow coverage at the moment. Plus, ground is too wet/muddy to attempt any bike trails. Ugh...
Warm and soggy here, Have to put up some posted signs and invent the rest of the day. It's going to be too muddy for recreational off-road riding.
Got 2" of snow yesterday. That should hopefully cover up most of the ice in the woods to make riding less sketchy. I am planning on finding out later on tonight.
I sold an extra woodstove I had in my basement. Tried moving it with a dolly last night up my stairs. Not gonna happen without some more muscles than I have. Thankfully my friends will help for beers.

Why people store heavy shit in basements when they have perfectly good yards is a mystery to me and why I'm not good for neighborhood property values...
I bought swim goggles yesterday.
Excitement.

same ol, same ol...
Mid-winter blahs must be hitting pretty hard these days judging by the number of uncivilized/honking behaviours during my walk to daycare/work this morning. relax people, you'll still get to work, even if you have to wait 3 seconds because someone is trying to squeeze in when they shouldn't.
When I bought my current house, the former owner was using two wood stoves on the same chimney flue. One in the basement and one on the main floor. It is debatable if using 2 wood stoves on flue is safe or not. Any home owners insurance company will not pay out on a claim if you are using 2 on the same flue, so we have never used the stove. Now after 3 years of sitting there, it is find a new home to heat. Actually, it is going in to a Maple Sugar shack to be used to make syrup.
Morning, last day off before going back to work. Gotta get a dump run or two in today and start moving my garage over. Good times
I am on #3 so far this morning and nothing. It must have lost it magic.
Meh.... Still waiting on my motivational coffee to do it's magic.
Well, sort of. Stomach woke me up at 4am to poop. Pooped again pre-shower at 8am. Stomach is now demanding that I poop again.
Its also raining here. I'd be okay if this keeps up and we skip the entire February/winter thing and roll right into spring.
Adventerous if nic vouches yes I can loan you a mitre saw.

somewhat thankfully our home was converted from oil to heatpump (which sucks) furnace when it was flipped before we bought it. that leaves us a currently unused chimney that runs down to our basement. (other chimney is for the fireplace, which we installed an insert and liner). when we finish the basement plan is to line the old furnace chimney and install a woodstove down there.
kid is still sorta sick. now wife is super sick. laid up in bed, so i am on full daddy duty.
At office.
Thinking about new track I'm working on.
Need to register for Dallas suspension event.

...why are my 5.10 creepers super slick on my office floor? It's a little damp.
So far today I have washed both cars, dropped off library books, procured and eaten some delicious baby-Jeebus-fearing Chick-fil-A, unladen Amazon returns at UPS, and then finally rolled into my office. I don't have any writing I want to do today so the rest of this research day will be similarly productive/unproductive, I predict.
Shitty day improvement: a Manhattan with a lunch. Now I need to watch my beak for the rest of the day. 
Excellent wing dings, must spread rep.
Comped day off from working the weekend. Running errands, attempted to go to a store to buy clothes. Aborted the mission, will continue to curate a homeless fashion vibe.

Fixed, distracted typing, trying to inhale a burrito.
be careful. you could choke on one of those.
Would be a delicious means of earning that sweet relief.
if only burrito is purchased from a hipster approved food truck...
Brick and mortar spin-off of popular truck. Food is better but doesn't have the same charm as eating in a pet food store parking lot.
Disappointing news on the promotion I put in for, its not going to happen.
On the positive side summer riding plans will not have to change. I' ve also managed to burn myself out at the gym. No exercise for me until Saturday or maybe even Sunday. My average RHR is up to 62 for the last 7 days and my ass is tired. Beer and a nap are in my future.

At an eye appointment that I totally forgot about. Seems new eye glasses will be in order
I see what you did there.
Picked up the utility trailer, which now has working lights.
Rode nine miles and sumpin', some of which was building some new trail.

I watered the plants while my friend is out of town. I planned to take a nap while I was there. But Her sister and her friend where there. Both are smoking hot. Her sister is a bit chunky but very cute and funny, The friend... Oh my. After a few beers I was able to get them to bring the creeper old man guard down. I made them pancakes. They supplied the bong shed wares. It seems I forgot to water the plants.....
