Well…damn, just tasted the ground coffee beans that I ran in my drip coffee maker today and I really am going to need to resist doing that every day…it tastes like coffee should…smooth and flavorful but I really do need to use that 45 ounce can that I bought this week so the beans will go into an airtight container and I’ll use them for treats…all of the 150 bucks worth of stuff except for the ratchet belt got here yesterday and I can’t believe how nice the Fiskars shrub shears are for only 10 bucks more than the cheap ones from HF…can’t wait to try out the new gloves on the outdoor bike this week when the temp is going to get up over 40…they are supposed to be good down to zero but they always lie about that..and they will replace the gloves I got when I was in my 20′s and I can’t believe that I’ve had them for almost 50 years and they are still the warmest gloves I’ve ever owned….might do one more order from amazon before the free trial of prime ends on the 2nd of January…it is really weird to buy things that I want instead of need…a luxury that I really do appreciate…bought 4 wooden fingernail brushes for 7 bucks so I can have one for every sink I have with one left over…not much to do today…just want to sit here for a bit and have a second cup of coffee before I get on the bike…after that, who knows? More later…
