Awake. More prep for my next interview. Both girls are at birthday parties today, but we might try to squeeze out for some K1 morning laps.
I was putting together footage for the PR guy and came across this from the last race. I knew the kids are tight and hitting on occasion, but damn. They are doing 30+ in a corner here.

Moar excavating. Doubt I am even half way done but hey, you only get one chance at making property
Wasn’t gonna, then did. Happy about it. More of the same, but with walking, today. Then golf (but not real golf) and car bombs (but not real car bombs) because I’m cliche.
Hello all
are you dug out yet, @6thElement?
/me needs to pack up our personal belongings in our various private closets at the mountain house. Our owners block on the calendar is ending as yesterday was the last week of Devo.
then back to Denver for Peter and the Wolf at the symphony with the kids and as much moonlighting as I have hours or patience for.

Ate too much last night. Had a kiddo that didn’t want to sleep. I’m dragging today. All hail coffee and all of its glory.
Hauled 40 lbs of child around for 4 miles yesterday. Its been a while and id be lying if I said I didn't feel that. Props @AngryMetalsmith.
"Lazing" around today. Which really means tending to the ever growing to-do list.
hi friends
I think I like MTB again. Maybe it's discovering trails within riding distance, maybe it's the new bike, I don't really know. I'm having fun again and that's all that matters, I think.
Saw my former direct report on friday evening and a former coworker last night. Both were so kind and it's just so nice to hear- I guess I needed that.
Anyways, happy sunday

Made all the roads passable yesterday afternoon. Couple of driveways left to clear.
Sheet ice over everything paved right now because of frozen melt.
Morning Monkeys.
Got a couple free pallets off marketplace and finally fixed the bench. I wasn't as diligent with pulling the cushions off and the rain soaked cushions caused the wood to rot. Go figure. Also got some "picnic table" paint that's totally crap. It's supposed to waterproof, so I will hope for the best. The original deck paint had flaked off quite a bit. Ran a sander over everything before I started. Do another coat today and call it good.
The wife wants to redo (or actually DO) the back yard, so I just wanted to make the bench functional until then.

Let me tell you about my wife getting patio furniture. Neither of us have been able to park in the garage since November. Friday night she came home with not 1 but 2 propane fire pits from Costco.
Oy Yesterday kicked my butt. I was going to get up and go fishing but when I woke up it was 0830 this morning, slept for 9.5 hours. I think a bike ride is now the plan as soon as the fog clears from my head. Come on espresso do your thing
Yeah, the "patio" has been a process. After the tree that was in the corner failed, I poured a small patio and built the bench around it. I strung lights and we had a pit, but we haven't used it much because we hate the neighbors kids. They seem to be older now or something, so we might be able to use it now.
I built raised beds when I first moved in, but they are falling apart now and the bushes we've never liked are looking worse and worse. So if nothing else I will be tearing everything out and at least have a clean slate.
Happy St. Patrick's Day to all who celebrate! But, I do not.
I was up early to get a 7 mile jog done, then we had to entertain mom-in-law for brunch. Got a bunch of chores that need some attention right after the end of the West Ham/Aston Villa game.

Anytime someone wants to give my ginger ass some shit for not wearing green on amateur drinking day I just stare at them with angry green eyes. Tell me I don’t wear green…
Do you need some sort of a permit to be a mime or can you just dive in?
Pfft way ahead of you
Went out for a nice ride on the road bike. I was kind of beat from 4 hours in the kayak yesterday so I just kept it at 16mph , stayed in the cardio zone for 70 minutes out of the 75 minutes that I rode.
Oh yeah when I got on the scale this morning I was down to 232 so I have dropped 43 pounds since going on the Thyroid meds. 200 is my goal

Self Defense classes are probably the most useful.
I’m Irish as fuck, but also I DGAF as fuck.

Is this what a mime would sound like if the volume was turned on ? I thought for sure it would be something more esoteric and with a French accent. Learn something new everyday.
Mate your windshield is cracked mate.
Nice windshield crack.
My dudes. I live in Colorado. Windshields are *always* cracked. They get replaced when the crack migrates to the driver's immediate field of vision - never sooner, 'cause that's a fool's errand.
