Tethered to my computer for a decent amount of the morning and most of the afternoon. Maybe I'll find some time to squeeze in some actual work amongst all those meetings discussing doing work.
Right? Only thing that got plowed was my hopes.
more rain, but today is supposed to be the last of it until the weekend when its going to fucking rain some more 
I think I know the answer but is it possible to pull back carpet from the wall line tacks and actually ever get it back on again?
I've never installed carpet so don't know the nuances of the stretch

Had a nice evening of watching cars 1&2 and eating pizza with the kiddo.
I don’t want to adult today.
We got 5" of snow last night which is our first real snowfall in three months. I'll venture outside for a jog in a bit. Wife got out early for some XC skiing but I had to stay behind due to work meetings. BOOOOOO!
I too don't want to adult today, but I have to.considering this may happen again someday, ditch the carpet for flooring that doesn't turn into a bacteria petri dish?
Yeah that's the long term goal but right now I just need to reach a state of 'dry'
This is no driving right now
Wife has a nasty sinus infection, I woke up with nausea/GI issues and both kids have a snow day.
FML.
FML.
If the end goal is no carpet, why not lift it up, remove the tacks and set it back down when done?
so then stretching it back, at least without those knee-kicker carpet tools, might be difficult/impossible.
this.
probably what I'm going to end up doing but involves the summer commitment of finally installing flooring.
There's another half right now who's been losing her shit so I'm trying not to create more stress
Yes, but trying to get it back on tight and without wrinkles sucks ass. Not impossible though.
Careful of the tack strips though, those things are deadly.
I'm attached to neither. I just want all the bedroom furniture out of our fucking hallway
What's under the carpet? Plywood flooring?I'm attached to neither. I just want all the bedroom furniture out of our fucking hallway
yep
The snow last night covered up most of the mud. It actually looks pretty outside…from the chair next to the wood stove.
Wife needs to make deliveries in Portland today. Currently debating hiding the keys…

Morning Monkeys.
So some observations between the whole big company vs small company.
Big company: 2 flavors of pump coffee, ice dispenser multiple bathrooms.
Small company: shitty single serve coffee pot that leaks like crazy, two ice cube trays in the freezer, communal bathroom down the hall.
Also, I don't have my fob yet, so this is my key. I don't carry it with me, I stash it inside by the door.

Apparently when this business park was first being developed, all the offices were single story. Plainar wanted to be special, so they had 2 three story buildings built. Then the .com crash and they never moved in. We are in the 3rd floor on the south end of the east building. The building has been sold over a half dozen times since 2000.
In what world is a 68 page manual a "quick start" guide?
First round of shoveling done. May not need another, but ice melt crap down later. In making roast red pepper/onion/tomato/artichoke soup to go with the leftover cheesy mashed potatoes from yesterday.
Little/younger DSO had her first experience with decent snow. She is now completely crapped out in her bed after having all the zoomies.
Fat biking it tomorrow. Roads are a shit show ATM to be able to get to close trails.
Edit: making this as well.

Got up early because I just did. I had to take all the chicken carcasses out of my neighbor's freezer. So I made a half gallon of stock. It smells pretty awesome. All the vegetables are chopped and ready to go. I am making Pho so I can just take out a jar of stock and add ramen noodles. My order from Snake River farms showed up. 4 lbs of American Waygu Bavette. Just need Bourbon to make the marinade/sauce.
technically deniable because of existence of ice dams
first things first yo. When it snows like this priorities shift a little.....have to make sure we can leave the damn house if needed
Neighbors asking me if they can buy gas because the gas stations all emptied out two days ago
