Well…running late today with not getting out of bed til 7:25…woke up before 6 but forced myself to try to sleep some more since I knew I wasn’t going out to get the paper today with all of the snow out here….there was no way I was going to bury the Miata on flat ground and then have to dig it out…slept okay but I feel pretty slow today with not eating enough….so I may have some toast this morning as I wait for the coffee to work…had an okay day yesterday but didn’t get much done so maybe I’ll do more today…I know I need to shovel the snow at some point but I’m going to let the rest of it come down first….so it will be an easy morning with coffee and news to read….there are a few FA cup matches on today that start at 8:30 but I already have my background tv  with the 24 hours of Daytona on til this afternoon so I may just watch a bit of that since Man U is not playing….not much to do today…just need to wake up but that won’t happen til I get more coffee in me….so I’m going to go get my second cup…more later…

Well…yeah, I know I’m late getting here this afternoon but I just don’t feel like writing today…okay, I do see the irony of me writing that I don’t feel like writing but how else do I get that across? It has started snowing out here…at least that is what the little weather icon says on my front page but I got up and looked and it isn’t….but the radar says the heavy stuff is coming and we are still forecast to get 5-8 inches out here….so I’ll be out shoveling after the Man U match…I was out in almost dark for the last shoveling yesterday and that was kinda fun since I’m never out after dark…at least in the winter…still going to keep at the one meal a day thing until I just can’t take it anymore but I don’t think I’m at that point yet…I was feeling it when I got up this morning, but after lunch I feel better so it’s getting close….need to fill the bird feeder again today since I have so many birds using it…still no sparrows but lots of Juncos and some Cardinals, too….should probably open that blind so I can watch them…it’s why I bought a window mount feeder after all and it’s kind of weird to hear them out there and not see them…okay, done for now…might be back later…who knows?

Well…running late today with not getting out of bed til 7:25 but I was up at 1:44 and 3:04 so my sleep was pretty broken and I’m feeling it right now..it feels like I need to do more than 600 calories today and I may have some toast soon to try to settle my stomach a bit…the only thing I got done yesterday was shoveling the snow twice and my back is feeling it along with my right thumb from slamming the shovel into the drifts I had…it’s black and blue and hurts to do this…it looks like a pretty easy day today and I’ll be watching FA cup soccer all day with Man U playing reading at 3 this afternoon…so I’ll have something to have on in the background as I read and get more of these done…snow is going to be coming in later and we may get 5-8 inches overnight but it won’t be too bad if the wind isn’t blowing…and it’s going to be colder so the snow should be pretty light…and the salt cleared the walks completely so I won’t have any ice to shovel through…not much to do today…just going to ease into it and have more coffee and read some news…and get a couple of posts out over on Mastodon….looks like a lazy day….more later….

Well…I probably shouldn’t bitch too much about having to shovel the snow twice today since it was pretty easy other than the two foot tall drift along the entire front walk that took some time…but it is going to snow again tomorrow night and we are supposed to 5-8 inches so I won’t be going out for the paper Sunday morning and that’s okay…I did salt the walks, too since they were icing up some and I had a brand new bag to open….only had one meal again today and should have been able to keep my calories around 600 for the day…only two more weeks of one meal a day…yay! I am sore from shoveling, though, so I may just heat it a bit since I’m just going to be sitting here watching tv…

Well…damn, I’m not sure how I’m running so late this morning but part of it is just lying in bed and staring at the ceiling for a while after I woke up….feeling a bit of depression this morning and want to withdraw from everything for a while so I don’t have to interact at all but I do need to run an errand this morning…and I want to wash the car, too, but the roads are all snow covered so what would be the point? Had an okay day yesterday and got a few things done along with cooking and I need to continue that today but sure don’t feel like it right now….it looks like we had enough snow last night that I’m going to have to shovel again today and that’s okay…not getting anywhere enough exercise and I am counting down the days until I can get back on the bike and work up a good sweat….not too sore today and that is welcome with the  mystery bruises I’ve had the past few days…and I’m still not sure how the hell I got them….not much to do today…just the short errand and then cleaning but that is just a suggestion at this point….might just take the day off and watch tv and veg…who knows?  More later….

Well…it’s been a busy morning with making the huge pork shoulder in the instant pot, having lunch, and then cleaning up not only the dishes, but the entire dining room including the table and floor and that took some time…it is nice get something done and clean some…and I will do the bathroom tomorrow or later this afternoon but I want to go out to shovel the snow here in a minute first…so that’s why I’m running late coming here…I’m hoping that I can come up with a topic as I shovel…if not, it’s back the news to try to find something…more later…

Well…up at 3:04 this morning and then out of bed at 6:59 and I don’t feel too bad this morning…it did snow a bunch overnight and I’ll have to go out to shovel a couple of times today but I’m okay with that…slept okay last night and I go so close to dreaming that I can feel it and I may get to that tonight…at least I have hope that I will but we’ll see….I do have a lot to do today with making a big meal in the instant pot…have a 7 1/2 pound pork shoulder that I’m going to cook with mashed potatoes, gravy, and cauliflower and I get started on that about 10 so I can eat at noon or so…and that gives me time to have coffee and read the news first…the bathroom needs a cleaning and I am really going to try to get at that today…it only takes about an hour and I’m not sure why it’s so hard to just do it…oh, well…I am still sore for some reason and I am still confused how the heck I can hurt myself sleeping…my right forearm has a big bruise on it and it hurts when I rest it and do these…not much to do today…just cooking and cleaning and reading and maybe some soccer but I’m going to let the day unfold as it will…have to get started on lunch at 9:30 or so since I need to brown the pork shoulder and cut up an onion and put the rest of the spices in the pot for the 90 minute cook time….more later…

Well…just finished up doing the snow and it is so cool that it is still light at 6pm now….didn’t get a lot done today but the grocery runs and I got a huge head of Cauliflower for 2.50 and I steamed a bunch of it for dinner with just butter, salt, and pepper and it was just great…I’d buy it all the time if it wasn’t so damn expensive…but I’ll enjoy some with the pork shoulder I’m making tomorrow…probably do mashed potatoes and gravy too, so it will be a one meal day tomorrow….I am going to try to get out for a walk but we’re supposed to get 5 inches more snow tomorrow so it would probably be a good idea to wait a couple of days…I am going to watch the new Spielberg movie “The Fablemans” tonight and will probably start that at 7….but right now I need to make ice and get some more in my water glass….

Well…damn, feel pretty crappy this morning and just so worn out and all I want to do is go back to bed…I think I may do that one of these days…up at 3 or so and then out of bed at 6:23 and I’ve just poured my first cup of coffee at 7 and I do need to ease into it today…it sucks when you get old and and hurt yourself just sleeping…my back hurts…not as bad as it was but it is stiff and I may have to heat it after the grocery run…and we are supposed to get 3 inches of snow today so that will mean some shoveling later…I did get a few things done yesterday but I’m not sure what I’ll do today…going to buy a pork shoulder today and I’m not sure when I’ll cook it…probably tomorrow in the instant pot and I’m getting a head of cauliflower since I like it and it’s on sale….I do have to remember to get some veggie broth to cook the shoulder in this morning…damn, I wish the coffee would work faster….not much to do today…just need to do the grocery run and then veg out for a bit…Man U plays this afternoon and I need to get anything done I have to do before they play….man, I feel old today…but I’ll live through it…maybe…more later…

Well…had another good day today and got a few things done so that was cool…marinated some ribs, gave myself a haircut, did the laundry and watched some soccer and of course did the dishes…and I found a pretty good Korean movie called Jung_E over on netflix that I liked so I may try that again tonight since there is nothing new on plex to watch…lots of action science fiction about robots and AI…and I even didn’t have much pain today and I’ll take any day of little pain…my teeth didn’t even hurt at all today and that is just weird…still need to make ice and clean my teeth one more time so I probably should get going….
