I had too much insulation. On myself, not the roof.
I went for a second round of shoveling snow. As my typical indoor outfits were not suited for 17 degree Fahrenheit weather, I opted for a jacket with a coat, and a hat with two hoods. Never mind my legs. But I had boots too. By the time I was done, I was sweating in freezing weather. I’ve never experienced that before.
I’d say the worst of it was the few times I drove the shovel forward with all of the power I could produce and then hit an immovable object. Neighbor’s older and younger daughters came out to attempt to shovel their snow. There were more females shoveling than men at the time. Our side of the driveway is clear. The owner of the car on the other side has been pretending it doesn’t exist, so he won’t mind it being buried in snow. The only real fail is by the time I was done, the direct sunlight had moved away from our driveway.
But there is tomorrow.
I've eaten so much cheese during the holidays...and I eat a lot of cheese normally, so I'm full now.
Non-complaint: I'm off on a mini-adventure this morning. Ancient-person's bus into town, but farther into town than usual, to a different big grocery store where there is a Subway in the same plaza and a Tim Horton's across the street. Breakfast at Tim Horton's , major grocery shopping, a sub sandwich to take home for a couple of meals, browsing a couple of stores in the plaza, and an Uber home. No doctors, no drug stores. Wheee..., a pure mini-adventure.
Complaint: It's 16F (-9C) degrees out there right now.
I had cold cheese. I tried to warm my cheese in the microwave. I accidentally melted my cheese. Then I didn't have cheese.
I got a lifeline number. I got it all set up on my phone. I can't find google play on it. Maybe updating the iOS to latest version might help. I doubt it for some reason.
We now have an epic battle to see which Nvidia 5090 thread gets the most attention.
...they'll probably be merged..
It's 3:32 a.m., there's no one in the place but me...
I was asleep at 3:32 am eastern time. It is now 8:12 est. or maybe 08:13 by time I post this.
Funny enough, we have an Amazon warehouse a mile and a half away.
Whatever I didn't feel while I was shoveling snow, I am feeling it now.
Los Angeles has a fire problem. Hollywood sign has gone up in flames.
edit; I don't know if it has caught flames or not, but it is true that Los Angeles has a fire problem.
Yea I think most of the world is aware
so terrible especially when low income families lost their homes and everything it seems.
Complaint: Weather: My mini-adventure into town on Tuesday got cut short by the cold. Bus ride into town OK. Breakfast at TimHorton's OK. Walk, one half block and across the street to the big grocery store, COLD, SNOW, WINDY, & not OK. Grocery shopping OK, but ended up with two very heavy bags. Decided that walking with heavy bags, outside, in the wind, cold & snow to the other end of the shopping center to the Subway, for a couple of sub sandwiches, was not going to be fun. Wimped out and called Uber to take me and the bags home. Bags and I got home OK. Decided I need to buy myself a nice wool scarf, someday.
Ongoing Complaint: Temperature on my porch this morning was 10F (-12C), and now (11:00 AM) it's still only 14F(-10C)
Non-Complaint: No need to go anywhere today. It's hot cocoa time again. Wheee...
Complaint: I need more hot cocoa. Non compliant I can get it Monday at the earliest.
Non-complaint: Absent mindedly browsing the web. I love these paintings: https://www.arthistoryproject.com/subjects/politics/the-course-of-empire/
They tell (and foretell) an all-too-real story. The size of each one is about 5x3 feet. I saw all five of them together on temporary display in one separate room in the National Art Museum (west building, i.e. the one with the dome) in Washington DC several decades ago. Very impressive. The link above gives a couple levels of magnification/zoom of them needed to admire the detail. (Click the '+' and '-' in the top right corner) Wikipedia has an excellent article about them .
That's very thoughtful of the neighbor. And I assume the neighbor knows what to do with a fish, assuming the fish cooperates.
are you sure your neighbor can take care of a large fish? They require a lot of work to set up the several hundred gallon tank. Also need to make sure the fish have enough swimming space.
Forgot the complaint I came in th kvetch. There is a winter weather storm warnings in my area. Main complaint is I'm afraid of missed hours which mean a smaller paycheck.
It's snowing here. There's about 5 inches on the ground. It's still snowing.
I hate snow.
Only time I like snow is if I have no where I need to go so I can stay home guilt free.
Bad pun of the day:
so, let's say you bought fancy new pillows filled with real down feathers.
let's say you sleep on them a few nights and conclude they are just a little overstuffed, they have just a little too much loft.
let's say the store has a no returns policy, which you knew about.
let's say you decide to take some filling out.
let's s say the pillow has no zipper, so you have to cut open the fabric.
let's say the down feathers go all over the place, because apparently that's what down feathers do.
let's say the entire living room is covered with down.
let's say it's literally impossible to scoop up the scattered down feathers by hand or gather them with a broom.
let's say all this happens at in the middle of the night so you don't want to use the vacuum because of the neighbours.
couldn't be me!
(one of the above lines is a lie)
Thanks for the warning. All you need now is someone to open the door on a windy day and you'll be picking down out of your cereal.
nobody move. nobody breathe. nobody fart.
Due to weather, I'm not working today. Not sure if complaint or non complaint.
Complaint: Slow shipping: I decided to buy a nice, black, soft, Marino wool winter scarf so as not to freeze my nose, lips and throat when needs be to brave the nasty days this winter when I have a raft of doctor appointments in a few weeks . I ordered the scarf from Amazon but it won't arrive for over two weeks. Murphy (of "Murphy's Laws" fame, aka: The Prognosticator Deluxe), says that the cold weather will be over by then. I never thought I'd be rooting for more cold weather. So far, this winter is like what I remember from my childhood in the '50s, miserably cold, deep snow, wind, and no bare ground until the end of March. It remains to be seen if true, but I doubt it. I predict Daffodils in February.
