Did a lap to make sure the tape for the XC race is still up.
Mrs Ringle’s b-day today. Kiddo and I are getting her a tree.
Taking next Friday off so traded a Saturday shift with another employee (they now get a 4 day weekend)
espresso then off I go...shit

Time to go clear snow of the trees and the plastic covers for the veg. Another 6-12 inches predicted.
the wife must be excited about that prospect eh
/me is working today. 7-5. Supposed to be from the hospital but I'm home because I'm taking the initiative to ignore dictates from leadership that are stupid.
I heard a rumor yesterday that our upper upper upper management (above my functional group) is monitoring badge swipes into the building to see who is actually going in.
Dh bike needs final adjustments, gotta mow the lawn and power wash the deck. Soccer now for younger kiddo.
Hey! Ran 8ish miles in Central Park this morning and now I have a bat mitzvah to attend. I hate the city. Slept great though last night, much to my surprise.
I'm not worried about my job security. They can monitor and admonish away if it comes to that, but not commuting in and hanging out with my kids between cases makes my life better so I'm just doing it.
(There's a very rare chance that I'd need to come in for a fluoroscopic case, like an esophagram. That happens about once every 3 months, takes about 2 hours to set up effectively with patient transport to the fluoro room and getting the x-ray tech available, technically I could supervise it remotely with the resident who's in the hospital donning the lead and pushing the button, and plus I live < 15 minutes away with weekend non-traffic. I'll roll those dice.)
aboot 6-7" super high water snow so far, more on the way. Ugh, so much for a ride this weekend.
having coffee, thinking about walking to town for huevos rancheros.

did the same for the mrs. for mom's day.
picking up teh house and coffeeing. then to watch the older dude test for his 2nd degree black belt.
8" on the ///deck. Lots of branches in the neighborhood down at this point. A few half attached large branches as well, so not sure how to cut those guys down. Once it stops snowing going to have a lot of work helping out.
K1 with Haley this am and grocery shopping later.

purser?
Ballantyne. If you’re bored an want to point and laugh at my ridding skills come on out!

2nd Dan, impressive. Good luck to him.
Barely got any sleep. Took my Dad to the Dr. yesterday for his annual physical. And my mom is having some very concerning health issues and is being stubborn about making a dr’s appointment. Ugh.
nice-haven't been there since they redid the wallride line. place is like 10 minutes from me. we should meet there or purser sometime! then you can laugh at my fitness!
he should be good to go. been doing it for 6 years. he's pretty dedicated.
Absolutely! Your number still the same? I was thinking about hitting Ballantine again next weekend actually.
It is neighborhood yard sale day. My street is literally a traffic jam of boomers. I doubt I would be able to get my car out of the driveway if I needed to right now. This shit better clear up in a few hours when I roll out to ride.
That's a decent amount of time I'd say, especially for someone his age. I did it for 2.5 - 3 years and was still two years away from First Dan (including the mandatory one year wait period before testing for black in Tang Su Do).
We accidentally a couch today, it arrives in three months. Teh Spousal Unit™ and I are very excited. Now time to go fit the drooper pole @6thElement sent me to the fatbike and see if I can't get a ride in.
Slip and slide has currently taken priority over pressure washing. Because hot. Yard is mowed at least.
Karting done. Haley .007s off her PR in adult karts, on a full track with traffic. Said it's way easier now since she's driven the race kart. *Shocker* When you driven a more challenging vehicle, the former hard one gets easier.
I got blasted by a 12/13 y/o who missed the whole "you already crashed into that person when they passed you, don't hit them again in the next corner too". Side hurts like hell and neck is a tad sore, but I'm pretty sure my collar did it's job .

81° with a light breeze. You can have that white shit
Despite wacky cable routing, the drooper was installated. Time to go see if the trails are still snowy or if they've already turned into slush. Picking some mellow and flat(ish) north facing ones with fingers crossed so I can get a pedal in. Also temps have dropped and it's started to flurry again, so it'll probably be an ice rink out there.
Got out for a ride, which was awesome. Even if we did get caught in big ass thunderstorm. Had to hunker down and drink beer for a bit while it got spookily dark.
Same storm has knocked out power at 4/5 buildings I work at.
And apparently there was a tornado or at least some microbursts which has destroyed a local brewery.

The Second Wedge Brewing Co. on Instagram: "The town of Uxbridge is reeling right now, after a likely tornado went through earlier this afternoon. Everyone at the brewery is ok, but as you can see we’ve sustained major damage and will be closed until further notice. We hope everyone in town is safe and… we’ll be back."

Gravel Grinder race. Think I got somewhere around 10th. On my fat bike. 72 degrees, brilliant sunshine. Only saw 4 bears.
People were signing me like roadie signals or some shit on today's gravel race. I dunno, seems like gang-signs to me. Some sort of communication method for peloton riding or something. I just tried to stay in the draft as much as I could and cut the corners.

Big storm rolled through town. Lots of downed trees, lots of powerlines down too. This looks like quite the predicament:
number's same; will be up at snowshoe next weekend though!
yeah, covid put him back a year or so but he's stuck with it. passed with flying colors. #thatmomentwhenyourealizeyourkidcouldwhoopya
in soviet canuckistan, charging station comes to you!
Pretend to know how to take photos today at the mtb race. I got distracted by a blue Herron in the stream next to me. It was a win win.
