Lazy Saturday
So about 10 am this morning I decided I was running to Aldi to get milk and a few things so I jumped in the Xterra and did it. I’m always so amazed at myself for being able to do things like that, I just don’t like dealing with people and being close to the…

Black Friday 2022 Edition
Well we actually went to the mall complex and shopped, just the outside. Did get my steps and maybe the knee is getting back to normal??? It was a nice day and got laundry in progress and cleaning done.

Vehicle Issues
So as alluded to in a previous post, the Chevy died on me and of course, I needed another truck. So this time I decided to go as top of the line as I could, yes it’s a bad time to buy a truck but it’s needed and I’m tired of having a truck that…

Running Shoes
So for whatever reason, I’ve taken up running. Well, it’s kind of a run/walk kind of thing. At the rec center, the track is about 1/12th of a mile which makes a nice walk-one-lap, run-one-lap kind of thing. But my old shoes were getting to be worn out so wanting to get a nice pair…

Back At It
So I went back to work last Monday, it was supposed to be a soft week where I caught up with a month and a half of emails and get things ready to jump in both feet this upcoming week. Well that didn’t work. Started with an issue that was damn close to impossible to…
