And I cannot overstate this enough — pfft! I do not care for the time switch at all. This week is a real Jimmie and I’m still surprised when I read the clock to discover what time of day it is at any point. It’s like het lag, but without the exuberance of international travel, or the once fun jet setting hopping airport lounges, and eating/drinking at all hours of the say. Less fun, same out of body fatigue. Zero stars, do not reccomend. Dog hates it too.
I somehow hurt my left shoulder yesterday without realizing it, because it gave me grief all night long. The kids and I took turns trying out their uncles cold plunge pool. I tried twice and hot down to my arm pits once and stopped, but the kids tried again, and again, and again, eventually submerging themselves for 20 seconds or so before jumping back into the hot tub. I’m lead to believe that it is a more pleasant experience if you do it from the sauna instead. But we had the hot tub fired up, so we went from there instead. It6certainly cold. Not my forté by any means. I hate the cold. Despise it actually. Not that I like the outside temperatures being in the 90’s or higher either.
If my calculations are correct today is Wednesday. This will be the coldest day this week before it climbs back up towards double digits, sunshine, and then finally rain. I’m going to need to take the shovel around the house once more to make room for the rains to glow out onto the grass unimpeded. I want it all to run off, not flow back towards the house, or pool near the foundation. Home ownership is fun! At least now the eaves troughs are stuffed right full of ice! That has got to count for something, right?
It’s Saint Patrick’s Day on Monday, so green beers for everyone. I know what I’ll be doing! Watching It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia that’s what. I don’t drink all that much. I had two gigantic beers at the Leafs game on the third, which had my wobbly in the knees. And I drank a Twisted Tea in the hot tub yesterday evening (which tasted far better than its US counterparts I had in the Florida Keys only a short while ago). And that’s it. That almost entirely encapsulates what I’ve had to “drink” in 2025. More than normal for me, but not even enough to fill an 8 pack of tall cans. Rookie numbers I don’t care to pump up.
Let us see where/how this sapping operation takes us today. Happy Hump Day! Ciao Bella.
