-19°C here, -27 with wind. Will bike to work anyways. Had a good weekend at a buddy's cabin in the woods. Sauna and ice plunge helped my back recover. I think
On a sailing ship to nowhere, leaving any place.
If the summer changed to winter, yours is no disgrace.

Hi pols
Unclear if middle child is still asleep (younger definitely up and at it downstairs) or whether she woke up and abandoned me for morning snuggles
dentist in an hour. Then WFH reading ultrasounds for me
update: she had woken up a bit earlier than the ok to wake green light and gone downstairs. but then she came back up for the requisite morning-snuggles so all is well

1) turn on laptop and it decides to finish installing updates and rando bios update
2) it reboots, but doesn't turn on. power cycling it and i just get the dell logo and nothing further (meanwhile i have a meeting that i need to join)
3) wait and power cycle it 3 more times, finally windohs starts
4) outlook now won't stay open and keeps crashing after a minute
5) software tool is saying its unavailable, so unable to start office/outlook repair process
6) forced to use web version of outlook FFS
Oh and forgot my earbuds at home, so will be forced to listen to music through these shitty ass headphones.

Met with the buyers of the house today. They got the big tour and appreciated all the details. Not surprisingly the agent had told them nothing. Fucking real estate agents.
"Microsoft Teams .app is damaged abd can't be openend. You should move it to the Bin."
Not ideal!
Luckily, all our admin stuff and all our phones are run through/as Teams, so nobody can contact me in the chat or call me. I guess I will get some work done then.
Or I could post on the monkey.

UTV rack for the truck bed is nearing completion, 7 hours of weld out yesterday. I will typically only tack things in case there is a major design change along the way since I only work out of my head and have zero drawings or plans. I'm pretty happy with it thus far, There is a wee bit more bracing and strengthening to do today but may have it wrapped up and ready for painting this afternoon.
In other news,
found a new edible that is 4x the knock out power than the ones I have been using for sleep, might try one tonight.

Had a 1500mg one that made me a little relaxed. Gah, I wish edibles worked for me.25mg?!?
That'll do it.

exactly, but doing it last since I am not fond of playing the jungle gym contortionists' yoga poses any time i need to weld interior
It’s cold. Might stay in my office at home today. Feeling less sick today so that’s nice.
Mrs got me a doughnut. It was good.
Could just box in a section with some sheet metal to make a compartment for weed.
The words of this post do ring true unto me, for we too stand at the beginning of the end of the great labor upon our house.
And it came to pass, that a hidden treasure was made manifest unto us. For amidst the dust and remnants of days long past, there did lie a small and humble token—a figure of Dumbo, the famed elephant. Though worn and weathered by the passage of time, it did speak as a relic of former joys, a whisper of the life that once dwelt within these walls, and a promise of the gladness yet to come. Lo, it seemed as though even the house itself would not let us labor without hope.
And now, on the morrow, we set forth on a journey of respite, a fortnight of rest to restore our strength. When we return, it shall be to the work of reclaiming our home, to move once more into that which we have labored to restore, and to fill its halls with the life and laughter it was made to hold.

You guys think too small. Perfect opportunity to fab up a rolling meth lab. That way you have a steady stream of income. And Walmart won’t kick you out of their parking lot.
Afternoon. Not much new white stuff here but the cold is settling in. Dental cleaning this morning and then proctoring a Boys Varsity Basketball game before gymnastics driving tonight & grocery shopping. Fun times!
