They&#8217;ll just keep coming, until, I have no idea until. Until I die, I guess. I was one of the first, and after almost 22 years, it&#8217;s just a part of my life. WordPress certainly makes it easier&#8230;until 2016, it was all by hand-edit file, change link info on month and year boundaries, upload. Now it&#8217;s edit via web anywhere. Need to take regular backups, though.<\/p>\n<p>Gamelan tonight, worked out with M last night, late to bed. Watched slalom and cycling while cleaning the kitchen. Gamelan was fine-there&#8217;s a mouse in the room. Health insurance is insanely costly. Looks like I&#8217;m working over the Christmas break on a new project&#8230; Rainy, home, yummy Waffle House hash brown bowl dinner, but I prefer loose hash browns rather than patties. S to bed, watched cycling and short track while cleaning the kitchen. South Park with M too.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s Friday! I&#8217;m looking forward to sleeping in tomorrow-this week has been late nights busy cleaning up after dinner. Here it is Monday-not a bad weekend, but too short. Long one coming&#8230; OK. So, workout with M Friday night-negative legs. Sleep in, clean, practice keyboard until a flooded bathroom had to be dealt with. Clogged toilet plus sticky valve equals many wet towels. Cleaned it up, unclog, done, except for the washing of towels.<br \/>\nChurch Sun., with S to market &amp; libe, wash towels, M to libe, pick up E, pick up M &amp; shop, workout, dinner, bed. Hard to sleep-rain is very loud outside our wall. S left a plate out and has tons of bugs in her room-it freaked her out-she ended up in our room. Up, to work, forgot my laptop, back home, an hour late in. It&#8217;s Wednesday, 2 extra days off-that means 2 days less money-no bueno. Workout last night, making progress, but I dislike the stationary bike-maybe I need to change it up&#8230; And I did-treadmill now-I was doing that in the long ago, so it&#8217;s OK-I&#8217;m actually moving up weights as well.<\/p>\n<p>And now another week-it&#8217;s Thursday-busy at work with problems. Gamelan last night. Thanksgiving was OK-sleeping in, ham, tried to keep things clean, not much other than the usual. We&#8217;re out of ca$h for the next week. All the bills are or will be paid, we just have nothing left after doing that.
