Well…just got back from a bike ride in shorts for the first time this year and thought I’d take a look under the hood of the car to check the fluids, etc. and just broke out laughing…some animal had tried to build a nest on the top of the valve cover with housing insulation…it was a big one, too…then I found another one tucked into the side of the fender that had sunflower seed shells in it…once I saw that, I came back inside and got a pair of gloves just in case there were actually critters in it….I can’t remember how long it’s been since I had the hood open but I know it’s a least a couple of months…just glad they didn’t start gnawing on the wires…..

Well…sitting here waiting for the car to de-ice so I thought I’d get this one out…it was an okay day yesterday and I had a nice lunch with T so that was cool…slept okay last night but feel pretty crappy today so it is going to be a low key one…I do have to change out the tires on the car today since it looks like there won’t be more snow….or I could wait a day or two…not sure….other than that, not going to do much other than clean a little and read the papers…it is supposed to be 34 degrees outside…I wonder why there is ice on the car? More later….
March 10th
Well…it was an okay day yesterday…other than the interview…and I did get the top down for a little drive yesterday so that was cool…and today looks the same…I do have to go out and get my hair cut since it is rubbing on the headliner in the car and it feels like a spider on my head….slept crappy, crappy last night and have been up since 4:30 so you’d think this one would have been done earlier…I did do another one, though, so maybe that’s something…feeling okay with being kinda good last night and that will continue for the rest of the week but the allergies are flaring again already and that is just irritating….need to get the summer wheels back on the car but I think I’ll do that tomorrow since I am meeting up with T later today….more later….
Interview update…
Well…just a short one to update the phone interview…did not go as well as I expected….and after I prepared all weekend for it…oh, well…I guess tomorrow is back to the resumes…and Friday is not the last pool day…so that’s something…and I had the top down in the car taking it out to wash it and that lifted my spirits some…..more later….
March 9th
Well…it was an okay dya yesterday but a little busy prepping for the interview today…going to work on that all morning, too, so that will basically be my day. I am going to wash the car as soon as the interview is done since it is going to be nice today…I did get a short bike ride in yesterday and I may have the shifter fixed…we’ll see later…I should be out on the bike in shorts later in the week with it supposed to be in the 50’s so that will be cool…but, I am still waiting for the ice to melt off the car right now and I will be happy to see that go…slept okay last night but feel a little crappy with the allergies this morning…and the time change is still having an effect…still doing the math in my head…it is really 7:15 right now and it feels that way…okay, need to go get the papers an have coffee…morw later…
March 8th
Well…running a little late today but not really since the time change was last night….have spent the past half hour just resetting all the clocks here and it is a pain….but, it was nice going out for the paper this morning and not having the sun in my eyes…slept okay last night but feel a little slow today and that is to be expected….I am a little sore from the bike ride yesterday and the shifter is giving me problems again…may have to get another one..but it was nice to get a good sweat going again….I may try the bike out again today when the temp comes up a little….not much to do today…have to do the prep work for the phone interview and watch the Wings but that is about it…..more later….
March 7th
Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I lost at pool…I did get some good news that I have a phone interview on Monday and I will need to prep for it over the weekend…probably tomorrow and Monday morning…..slept really crappy again and have been up since 5 or so so there will be a nap in the near future but I’m having coffee right now so that might have to wait a while….didn’t get anything else done yesterday but that is okay….and that looks like the day for me today…don’t really feel like doing much but watching soccer today so that will be the plan…the tooth is not hurting at all today and I can’t figure that out but I’ll take it…more later….
March 6th
Well…it was kind of a crappy day yesterday with the tooth pain flaring up again and it hurts again this morning so it looks like I need to figure something out to get it fixed…slept crappy and feel like it again this morning but it feels like I have another bug and that is tiring, too….didn’t get anything done yesterday, either, other than trying to fix the tooth and that was tiring, too….so, today is going to be a low key day with just one errand to run this morning and then relaxing until pool time this aft…more later…
March 5th
Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get much done…slept okay but feel a little slow today and I think it’s the allergies….didn’t hear back on the job interview yet so I think that is about done…it was nice to get a bite, though, after a couple of years without one….so, after taking a couple of days thinking about that one, I need to get back into the normal routine today…starting with the grocery run in a few minutes…I do go out for a run yesterday and I remember why I stopped doing that…pure pain from my waist down…my back hurt so much that I couldn’t bend over to untie my shoes when I got back here…so, no more of that….not much to do today…more resumes and a little cooking but that is about it….more later…
March 4th
Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get a lot done….I did get my paperwork in for the job to the recruiter and got a callback so that was something….slept okay last night and feel okay today so that is something, too….the allergies have flared up, though, and that is making me a little miserable…will have to take something for it soon…I did go out for a second night in a row to have a couple with G and I think that may be a little bit of why I do feel a little slow today….not much to do today…more and more resumes even with the interview pending since I can’t count on anything…..more later…and I mean that…had an idea come to me last night on the Ukraine crap that I want to do so come on back…
