Busy Week

Ready for a rest.  The past week was busy - WE AA hockey, TH Theater, FR DSO, SA STARS hockey, SU AA hockey and MO STARS hockey. Whew!!!!  Back to work to rest up.  Too tired for any more typing!

More of the same

cooling off and will be in the 40’s this week.  No bike riding the weekend - roads wet from rain.  Also Apple users meeting on SA so would have missed riding SA anyway.  Off to the ophthalmologist this am for yearly checkup - no problems that I know of.  STARS won this SA and the Allen Americans won one/lost one this weekend.  Back to work on TU so SOS after that

Nothing new

Hockey season is going on as y’all know.  STARS off to a rocky start except when they play the DEAD WINGS which brought $1.00 to TX.  Allen Americans off to a good 2 game sweep of Rapid City.  1st home game this weekend but conflicts with a STARS gams so I miss the first game but will go SU.  Had to get then winter coats out as it hit the 40’s over the weekend.  Put the down bed spread on the bed.  Back to work and SOSDD.

Another week

Last MO my cardiologist ran my butt off on a stress test.  Survived and he said it looked good.  This is the cardiologist who did the Richardson Corporate Challenge bike ride with me and another rider several years ago when I was working at the Richardson hospital.  Have to go back in 6 month for my semi-annual visit.  Some of you readers know at our ages the visits are every 6 months!  Bike riding and biker party yesterday and door prizes I got a new bright yellow jersey.  The cars can see me now. Had some well received rain last week and more projected this week, so saving the water bill.  More next time

Spending $

Had to have some plumbing replaced in the downstairs master bathroom.  The piping was loose but not leaking yet but was getting harder to turn on the water and divert the flow to the shower head.  This lead to wearing the joints.  Had to semi remove some of the wall and did replace it with one plate that was bigger than the previous one.  Done and need to take out a loan for the repair or maybe mortgage the house.  Will try it out in the am before work.  STARS start pre-season tomorrow. Bike riding and it is getting cooler down here.  No rain in Sept so it is dry and water bill getting larger and larger.  Back to normal work tomorrow TU- TH.  Nice having 4 days off each week. I guess that's all for now

Something new in big R

The natives have decided we have a gas shortage in the area.  Topping off tanks, filling up 4-6 gas cans for "safety" so they don't run out.  I filled up last WE on the way home and have avoided the lines and alleged shortages.  While it might be in less supply if no panic no problem.  Will fill up today so I will have a weeks worth to start the week.  Some stations have been out but several apps tell one where to get gas.  In my driving around I can get gas anytime.  OH well!  We have avoided the tons of rain south of here but will get a little this week.  No sprinkler needed. YEAH!  Everything is "normal"? Down here. More later

I'm Back

SOS in big R.  Ride when I can on SA and SU.  Last SU got pretty hot riding but made the 30 mi.  Did not ride yesterday as the Apple group met and learned something.  Rained on SU and lot of rain today.  Is ending.  Have been without AC upstairs since TH but hopefully fixed today.  Found out what fans are for.  Happily the downstairs unit is working so no sleep lost.  Also gone most of the days so not too bad.  Now waiting to get it fixed and pay the bill.   Jerry and Maury are qued to the TV so all is not lost.  That is about for now.
