- Start date
Cold and rainy. Coffee. Neither of the dogs {or myself) have any enthusiasm for a walk. Keeping an eye on Fed-Ex tracking for the new frame I accidentelly-ed. Have to replace a dead light fixture in the basement, tighten up a loose toilet seat in the main bath, and a leaky faucet in the kitchen. Dishes and laundry. Dinner res with Mrs. Scrub this evening.
Had to take the Mrs. to the airport stupid early. Now heading up to ski, gonna just nap in the truck until the lifts start spinning.
Lungs still feel like shit, so I probably won't manage many laps but I need to get outside for a bit, I'm going insane.

Congestion can please stop now, thanks.
Not rona, just more kiddo school presents.
Not sure what all is up today.
Slept 10 hours last night. New bed is still fantastic. @I Are Baboon how do you do this all the time?
Was supposed to tile kitchen backslash.
But since all cutting has to be done outside, horizontal snow escalated my motivation into fuck it territory.
Might go out on the Hoks later.
Planning road trip.
Is Bentonville a worthy smallish detour while heading west?

blowing will happen later today.
at rugbyfest with kiddo. all day. at least it's 65* and sunny.hopefully head for the hills tomorrow.
going to some pro rugby game in atlanta in may....
Snow is still flying and shall be for most of the day, how peaceful.
I shall be temporarily relocating some electrical boxes in preparation to shift a wall in the basement.
depends on how far out of the way.Less than a couple hours sure. Anything more IMHO, no. I take 40 west from Asheville to my folks in Utah and make the detour once every other year and only if timing is not on weekend.
If calculating home>Hurricane it's about a 4 hours detour. Not sure I want to do 70W through Denver in early April anyway. Noted for week-ends.
stayed up late baking, now sipping espresso, wind has kicked up, rain is showing up just on the edge of the KMUX Radar image so that should hit here in an hour and Kidwoo in about 2
I guess I will try to mow the yard before the wet shit hits

Frig, heavy snow! Not helped by the temperature now being 1c.
Going to venture to the trails in a bit in hopes that someone rode or groomed them. If they get packed down, it'll be nice. If not, absolute torture.
Don't know your spring plans, but we'll end our trip in Moab and Fruita early may. Cinco de Mayo in Grand Junction. #streettacos
'Morning! I did a two hour workout on the kickr this morning. I don't get why I can ride 120 miles outside on the tri bike just fine, but put the bike on the trainer and two hours is all my crotch can handle. It doesn't make sense.
I only do it on the weekends! And weekdays when I am a lazy fuck.
Rode the MTB for the second day. Still need to nail fitting. Trails were mostly dry and frozen so that made for some fun riding. Still slow but it is still only early March.
Fewer visual distractions while on the trainer vs on the road. That and your position tends to remain fixed and you move around on the saddle less. So you brain focuses on how bored you are or that your crotch is getting numb and not things like dodging potholes and oblivious drivers. All mental. But I agree, the trainer sucks.
funny......just had that conversation with my mom
She asked my partner if we'd considered moving to florida and there was accidental instant laughter
Over a foot of heavy wet snow last night and still snowing a bit. Heading to Oneonta in a little bit for a gymnastics meet for both girls. Should be a long day!
Good to see the snow line is really low.
Yeah - the early April dice-roll with I70 probably ain't worth it. 40's probably a safer bet.

Awesome, drive safe.
If there is even a slight chance that a snowflake might be spotted everything here shuts down the day before and the grocery stores get ransacked. So wish I wasn't exaggerating. When I was a kid living in PA, I can remember standing on two feet of snow, so cold the straps on my book bag froze, waiting for the school-bus.
8" powder. New powder skis I got from @Nick last year. Turns out I don't suck at trees, I was just sinking before. I did decide to try and bend my shin at the top of my boot when I slid sideways 10" down a fallen log. Haley is complaining that her skis, also from Nick, are too hard to turn. I guess she's gotten too used to snowlerblades...
Sleeping until 6:30 was amazing. Even getting to sleep at 1030 was late, but the sleep in was epic. 10/10 would buy a mtn house if I could afford to.
