Here. At the police station again today (but a different one). Hannah's teacher conference is today, which should be fun. It's her first since she started her adhd treatment. We also get to work on Haley's press release stuff. My gopro and SD cards are in my toolbox at the shop, so I need to go get them Friday.

You don't HAVE to.

I mean its probably a good idea, but you don't HAVE to.
You are technically true but i'm just envious of my graphic designer friends who take random jobs and work 4-5 days per month and still live a comfortable life while I have to plan 4 months of TV for some AD guy.

up at 0545 dogs fed, sipping espresso. Paying the price for being a lazy fuck yesterday and not filling up the work vehicle with fuel so I have to head out early and fill the sucker up before going to my first transport. a special needs kid with CP going to pre school.

I will be baking more bread for the low income seniors tonight, trying to have 20 loaves for them for Friday delivery

So today I get to go to the post office (woohoo!) and maybe squeeze in a bike ride, before the latest Class 4 Death Storm rolls in Wednesday thru Friday. Feet of snow in the forecast for the foothills, which would not be optimal for riding bicycles on dirt.

Nor getting to the airport

Unlike WADOT I am hoping Colorado has more than one snowplow.

oh yea, that. Vail pass closes often, as does I70 on both sides of Loveland pass, but the worst snow is forecasted for the foothills so the closer you get to Denver. Give yourself lots of time, or accept your fate and day-drink with me and fly out late.

I got an email this morning from USAA "Insurance payment due on your account" was the title.

Your automatic payment plan (APP) has been discontinued because your policies are no longer active. You can resume APP once you obtain new policies.
I don't have any policies, so what insurance payment is due exactly? Wtf people. USAA used to be awesome, damn

Sparkies at my house right now, upgrading our service from 100 to 200. Power for the house is shut down, running the Bong Shed™ off a generator so I can work and post on the 'monkey. This little meatball is helping.

Somehow I was only in the DMV for 15 minutes to do the necessary to title and walk out with new plates and tags on a vehicle we'd purchased out of state.

Slightly faster than the 6 months it took you @Toshi :D

At the mercy of my dumb family. Afternoon flight, trying to convince them to leave very early and if all goes well may have time for a beer however not sure what to do with my idiot family.

6'4" 260 lb nephew showed up a day late after oversleeping multiple flights. Had a minor fall on his second run and gave up. I am now free to explore on my own as my brother kisses his boo boos.

have him leave space for a whole house surge protector if he isnt putting one in now
Surge protector and an exterior disconnect too, if not already there. Both are required per the 2020 code update for residential installations and replacements.

When ours was done last year, I also requested it be run through conduit with a weatherhead and generous drip loops. Last panel died from water intrusion (at the non-existent weatherhead AND in the meter -> fuse panel) wicking into the feeders and corroding things.
