  • Tiller Drained

    I drained the gas out of the tiller since I believe we’re done with it for the season. It was a beautiful day and Sandy and I went for a 12 mile bike ride around Hurst. I’ve decided I’m going to take my picture in front of all the parks in the city. So I…

  • Recalls Complete

    While I love my truck, the closest Ram dealership leaves a bunch to be desired. I finally got hold of them and they actually had the parts in stock to fix the last two of four recalls that were left. So I’m completely up to date. It was kind of cool in that they took…

  • Retail Therapy

    I started the day at the gym, it was a nice morning so after a 30 minute walk, I took the long way back to the truck by the Hurst river. It was pretty, with all the rain we’ve had it was flowing and it was nice to hear the waterfall. On rare occasion, I…

  • Lazy Day

    We were due for some rain today so I got up early and got some stuff done and even had breakfast. Did some work on podman and Sandy and I walked the mall to get some steps. It was a nice lazy day and I hope to get some more done tomorrow.

  • Last Groundwork Proceeding

    Made it to the gym this morning for another 5k start to the day, that’s 5,000 steps not the 3.1 miles. Came home and took a nap. Got up but didn’t feel like doing much of anything but I finally got up and got Sandy to go to Walmart to get Spackle as we’re painting…

  • Monday 6mo + 3

    So as the old saying goes, nothing changes if nothing changes. So today it was back to a bit of a routine. Made it to the gym at 5:30ish am and had all three rings closed by 6:30 am. I got home and got my USA Jobs profile set up and was going to apply…

  • Lazy Sunday

    We didn’t get a whole bunch done today but we had a good time. It rained and it does that so infrequently that it’s so nice when it does. Between showers we got to take a bike ride and found the most beautiful wisteria that’s in the parking lot of my dentists office.

  • 6 Months Anniversary

    Today, it’s been six months since I left ThinkTalent. That means that it’s time to go back to work. I’ll be back in the office for 9-2-5 come Monday and start looking for work in earnest as well as finishing up the RHEL certification training. It’s been amazing to have the time off but it’s…

  • Biking Trinity Park

    Sandy had wanted to go biking to Trinity park and I honestly hadn’t been there in ages so it sounded like a good idea. Until, that is, we realized that it was spring break, and it was half-priced Wednesday at the zoo. It was packed but we manage to do about 20 miles. It was…

  • Sandy’s Back

    Picked up Sandy from the airport, she’s been awake since 3:30am eastern so she’s exhausted. Gave me a chance to mow the back yard and take a bike ride. I’m at 400 miles on the bike. It’s a bunch of fun and I got a rear view mirror for it but it’s too convex, I’ll…
