Congrats, sir! 3 miles on a treadmill is some brutal shit right there. There is an old saying that if one only had an hour to live, how would they spend it? On a treadmill, of course. One hour on a treadmill feels like a lifetime.
Good job.

Changing a tire on the Nissan pick up... must have picked up a nail? Can't find it. Tire is still on the truck, fortunately in the garage where its not getting snow or sleet so at least I have a dry place to work, and plenty of room around this tire. Any of the other 3 and I'd be cussing a lot.
The whole house smells like a boiled dinner!! Started the briskets at 5:30. Will add the vegetables shortly except for the cabbage.
Guests will start coming in around 1:00 and hope to eat between 2 & 3.
One of the guests always brings their awesome homemade spicy maple mustard for the corned beef. I keep the leftover mustard.

Thanks. I do 3 miles at least 5 times a week. Among other things, it really helps keep my blood pressure down....and besides, there are a lot of pretty ladies at Planet Fitness to look at while I'm on the treadmill.
Good job Lenny!
Crazy busy day since this morning!
Hellllp! Lol

Thanks. My neighbor goes with me every day. It's a mutual encouragement. He's in his early 70's too.
Looking forward to corn beef and the bar later.
I have a date with a lady who lives in the same neighborhood. We friended each other on Facebook. We went out together on Wednesday too. We'll see.
I hope your day goes well.
I did a Corned top round in the oven with celery carrots and red potatoes. Instead of cabbage I served crisped sour kraut. And fresh steamed, buttered asparagus. All with home made Yeasty bread buns and Sam Adams beer.
Whilst it was baking in the oven, I plowed a hole ten feet long thru the attic insulation and installed a vent fan in the new master bathroom. I'll route the exhaust thru the gable when we complete the roof alterations in April. When done we will have a master "powder room" without a shower or tub.
Next month we will begin our fight with the county to add a 6X8 foot bump out so we can install a real soaker/whirlpool tub.

9:20 pm and all is wellll!
The girls are tucked in bed..Ali went to her night out with friends, Ty is going to be late getting home tonight.
I've got dinner put back for him.
Elaina loved her little plate of corned beef and cabbage!
Whenever she wanted another bite she'd say "feef" for beef.
I'm watching shows on PBS of course about travel in Ireland and it's history.
No green beer for me.
Heck, I haven't had anything close..not even my beloved Hornsby cider since Thanksgiving.

9:31 and the kiddos are mostly all asleep except for the oldest.
Had a wicked ptsd related migraine headache all day. I did go to men's breakfast at the church this morning. One of our newer parishioners gave a talk on his hometown in Sierra Leone Africa that experienced a bad mudslide last year that damaged a bridge going from the main town to access a church and school. We raised $1300 of the estimated $5000 repair bill a couple months ago to help out. Now we're going to try and raise the remaining amount to repair the bridge.

I’m sure it will be noticed , and appreciated in his next gratuity check !!
I heard the pay is great!
Geez I was up late last night waiting for Ty and Ali to get home.
He was at the shop finishing up an alignment, she decided the band she'd gone to see with her friends sucked then went to the shop to hang out with Ty.
So they both came rolling in at 1am.
Good thing they have an instant babysitter, huh?
I should go to church, but once again won't today.
Was just outside and saw a little fat bird sitting in a branch thinking it was a blue jay.
Upon closer inspection realized it was a kingfisher!
They're adorable!
Only thing planned today is grilling kebabs for supper and taking a birding walk along the dam.
I'd like to get some pictures!

Up at 4am with severe back pain. Moved to the chair by 5am. Fell asleep at 6:30am. Up again at 7am to let the dogs out. Skipped church this morning due to a splitting migraine and severe back pain accompanied by a bad crps flare up in my left foot. Pretty bad when I can fall asleep at night despite my leg and back burning. That's all thanks to good meds.
No plans today for anything other than nursing this migraine. The lovely missus still took the kids to church this morning to give me a break. Last day of march break with 6 kids in the house.
Tomorrow afternoon we welcome another child into our home. A 5 year old girl who is the youngest of 4 siblings. Her brother already lives with us and we've had her for the night once this winter when the roads were bad due to a storm preventing her from getting to her foster home 30 miles away.

well,-- my hair so needs to get a shave on its' side, & my other side needs a trim-- i've kinda got that look that half of pgh has-- 'cept i've made my Aubrey-look- it's my look, & i've gotta stay ahead of trends-- yet stay w/ 'em-- gets to be overwhelming-- follow & keep w/ a trend, yet beat that trend, simultaneously--
polishing off half a bottle of vino-- if that-- not too appealing tonite--
then me, my comforter, my babs to purr & make bread-- I.D. channel-- that channel gives me nightmares tho it's tht, 'er night terrors via kimmy gibbler/danny tanner, & family/others, so -- i'll hear half via my dream, then have my dream, & then wake & say to myself, 'dammit, gotta change channels'-- then i'll take a sedative-- & mute my television-- then i'll dream well, usually--

March break caught up with me today. I pretty much sat on my butt doing SFA all day.
Was up half the night with the youngest grandie, Elaina.
Ali and I took turns.
She's cutting her molars and running temps.
During the day she's fine, it's just at night.
After 2 cups of coffee, I feel alive again lol
Ty put surround sound speakers in for the tv and stereo system late last night.
Prior to that he installed shelves in the basement, and unclogged the garbage disposal. How a plastic straw got in there is anyone's guess.
He's always on the go and busy.
Don't know what today is going to bring.
The weather is nice!
We're all happy.
Life is good.

Went to pain management this afternoon for the weekly seminar. Got out early in time to come home before our latest addition was dropped off. We now have 7....that's right....I said 7 kids living at home. I tell everyone that after 3-4 kids it's just another plate at the table. I figure since I'm now a stay at home dad I might as well do it in style.

Finished the electrical in the new bathroom. Gosh that is tedious work. Everything is too small and nothing goes together like it should. Those guys do not get appreciated enough.

Then throwing together some fajitas.

Looks like another busy day in store.
Kid stuff, me stuff.
Sometimes I miss being alone.
Wait, did I just say that??

Yup, indirectly because of me. I locked myself out of my account here a few days ago and woke up Doc in the middle of the night to fix it. He got real sick of that in a hurry. :th_lmao:
:th_lmao:Now Jim is the go to guy.

Couldn't log back in and was like what the heck!!!????
Jim is always around to lend a helping hand when Doc is out of the ummm office? Lol
I feel your pain Lollie. Cathy goes to Connecticut four or five times a year. Gone for three weeks and I'm glad to see her back.Looks like another busy day in store.

But,,,,,,I do enjoy those alone times when I can let things go a little and just enjoy an evening alone.
That's when I jump in the car and take off for a while, or run down the hill and across the road for a sanity walk
I'll be going back to work soon and back in a me element instead of Nana/housekeeper Lollie on the spot.
Don't get me wrong, I love being here.
It's just that Ali needs a push when it comes to proper mothering and all that entails now and again. Something I realized months ago.
