March 12th

Well…it’s new coffee day! One of those days where I have fresh coffee and it is from a container that I opened yesterday to make the first pot….the bad thing is that this is the best pot of coffee I’ll get from this 32 oz container and it’s downhill for the next 6 weeks until I open the next one….oh, well…I’ll enjoy this one while it lasts…it’s the damn middle of March and it is 16 degrees out here and it snowed last night….where the hell is spring? Okay, that will be my last bitch…for now….I was up and down all night last night starting at 3:02, then 5:09, then 5:39, then I gave up…but I feel okay so who cares? The big pork shoulder I made the other day was not done as well as it needed to be since it was not fall off the bone tender and I probably should have put it back in the instant pot for another hour…but I didn’t…I did come up with an idea that I am doing right now and that is to put the pork into my slow cooker that I haven’t used since I got the instant pot and I am going to run it on high for 6 hours or so to see how that works…and I added some veggie broth to it for liquid to change the taste…do you think I have too much time on my hands? I am in the last two days of my healing week off and my hands are better but still hurt so I guess I’ll just have to deal with it as I get back to work….I am a little excited to get after the bathroom but I haven’t figured out what I’m going to do with the built in cabinet that is in there…I really like all the storage but it needs to be stripped or sanded and re-finished with a urethane that will hold up to the humidity in there….and there is not a lot of room to move around in there so I think I’ll take the cabinet apart and do the work downstairs like I did for the kitchen….and I may have to wait to work on it until I can open the window and let the fumes out…I think it will be a stand alone project that will take a week or so since it needs to be re-stained before the finish….not much to do today….it’s kind of nice that I have gotten to the point that my living space is pretty organized so cleaning it doesn’t take a lot of time..and that is what I’m going to do today after the bike ride that starts in 18 minutes….more later…
