20200212 - Drain Snaking

20200212 - Up in the am and in to work. Had a full house at the office and got a lot of things done with Lonie and Cory today. We took a break for lunch and to run to the Scout store. Called the Dr. to get more pain meds for the shingles and he called in a new prescription but apparently insurance won't release the meds until 1/18... Headed home through some thick snow. Got home and hung out working on the puzzle and then watching a cute wrestling movie with LJ&G. Went to the bathroom during the movie and the toilet wouldn't flush... Finished the movie and then J helped me take a part the bathroom sink and snake down into the main drain. We got the blockage to move and I got things cleaned up and headed to bed late. Not a great night of sleeping. Hit AFIB once for about 30 seconds.

20200211 - Too Much Today

20200211 - Up in the am and in to work. Call the Dr. to see if I could get a refill on the pain meds for the shingles, these things SUCK! Had a pretty busy day in the office and stayed too late. Home for only a minute before I had to go to a Scout Committee meeting and Board of Review. Meetings are frustrating and I wasn't feeling great. Made it through the meeting and headed home, checking in with L and went straight to bed. No word from Dr. so out of shingles pain meds.

20200210 - Balancing Act

20200210 - Up in the am and did some things around the house and swung by the barber to get my hair cut on the way in. Had a very busy day but not getting the things on my list done... Headed home and swung by the house to pick up and go straight to a middle school baseball meeting. The meeting was short and sweet and saw a lot of folks we know.  Home and G changed and I ran him to Scouts and checked in with the leaders. Back home and L&I watched some of our show and worked on her puzzle. L heard of the broom challenge... and she tried it... J&G eventually got home after Scouts and a stop at DQ. I headed off to Bible Bangers, no Doc, he's to tired. We met for about an hour and came up with a plan for future meetings. Home and got to bed in good time.

20200209 + Making Bread

20200209 - Up at 3am, tried to go back to sleep but that didn't work... Made up a place in the couch and dug in to YouTube to see how to remove a cast iron bathtub and install a zero entry shower.  L up and got around and got G up and we had some bfast. I ran him to baseball and then home to get caught up on some things. Went and Got G and drove another boy home. Home and JG&I went into the crawl space to see if there was a leak somewhere. I couldn't even find a trace of water in the soffit. We closed it up and headed down. Cousin Jen showed up up to check on me and to get caught up. L&I hung out and started watching a new show and started a new puzzle. Gma&paW down at a travel show and stopped by for a visit and dinner at Moe's. Home and we hung out the rest of the night. I made some bread today!

20200208 - Getting Ideas

20200208 - Up in the am and L&I ran Gs friend home, G went with us. We swung by the house to drop of G and ship some ebay stuff. L&I then ran to the post office and up to Ikea to look at shower ideas. They didn't have much to look at and it had me on my feet for too long... We got out of there and headed to an Applebee's for lunch. We had a nice lunch and then headed to a bath showroom in Hilliard and it was too much to take in and VERY expensive. We headed home and found the new XFL football games on TV and settled in to watch, better than NFL I think. J got home, changed and headed in to work. G woke up and LG&I headed to Waffle House for dinner. Home and watched some TV until Late, L&G headed to bed and I waited up for J to get off work.

20200207 - Snow

20200207 + Up a bit later as there’s snow on the ground and schools are on a 2 hr delay. I waited around and made sure boys got up and headed in late. Had a busy day and headed out a bit early. Home and J gone, spending the night at a friends. LG&I headed out to get some dinner and G was desperate to have someone spend the night. He finally found a buddy and he came over. We played Trouble and then the boys vanished into the Xboxes.

20200206 - Third Time's a Charm

20200206 - Up in the am and headed in to work. It was by far my best day yet. We had some huge progress on a major project and I swung by a party after work for a girl that worked for me to say goodbye as today was her last day (It was her third time she quit...). It made the day a bit too long for me and I didn't like the drive home in sleet and dark and I was bit shaky. Home and hung out the rest of the night.

20200205 + Acquitted

20200205 + Up in the am in to work. Took it pretty easy today but enough to keep things moving. Headed home a bit early and made it home in time to watch the impeachment trial of President Trump. What a shitshow and huge waste of time and resources! Relaxed and took it easy the rest of the night. 

20200204 - Back in Rhythm

20200204 - Up Late and heart back in rhythm overnight. I let folks know I would be working remote and worked couple hours from home keep things rolling. Nap, work, nap. Everyone home and L&J headed to Columbus State for an engineering night, G screaming upstairs on Xbox for hours and didn’t eat dinner. L&J back said it was horribly boring. To bed in good time.

20200203 + Last Game

20200203 + Up in the morning and a bit of a late start. Got in to the office and collected my $40 from my Super Bowl winnings and then spent the day keeping things in line and created a couple new processes. Lonie got us Chinese for lunch and it was a fast day. Headed to the middle school down the road to watch G's basketball game and met L there, a buddy from work joined us. It was a good game and G played hard. I had a candy bar and Gatorade for a snack. Home and hung out and relaxed until time to go to Bible Bangers, no Doc he had an early Dr. appointment the next morning. First time out with the guys in a while and it was good to see them. I over did it a bit on the food, bad idea. I had sweet tea, fries and ketchup, nuggets and sauce. That on top of all the other sugar and salt I had knocked my heart back into AFIB... Up until 5am-ish trying to relax and get heart back in rhythm and eventually fell asleep.

20200202 + Unexpected Bowl

20200202 + Up and L took G to baseball practice and then went to church. I got to the desk to pay bills. G home from practice and I got J out of bed by taking his phone. J&G took down the Christmas lights. L home and J took off to ride skateboards with a couple friends and go to a hockey game. G hung out on the Xbox until L&I ran him over to a friends to play outside and then watch the Super Bowl. Land I hung out and L started cooking dinner for us and then J came home with a couple friends. to watch the game, and then a couple more, and a couple more... We had a house full of kids in the basement and L was scrambling to find food for them. It was a great game and the kids had fun and ate everything L put out.

20200201 - Downtowns

20200201 - Up in the late morning and L&I headed to Worthington for G's basketball game. It was a good game and G ran his tail off. After the game L&I parked at my work and walked to a couple of shops and then to a French bakery that is right next to the office for a late lunch. Home and I named some pictures and took a nap. J showed up for a minute, changed and went to work. L&I got ourselves together and went downtown for a nice dinner with Bill and Tiff to catch up. We went to the brewery and stayed a bit longer, maybe too long for me. Home and settled a bit but couldn't sleep last look at clock 4:53am.
