Our outside temp is a chilly 29 (F). Today will be warming up, however, climbing up into the mid 40s (F). By Thursday our temps should be in the mid to upper 50s (F). There's nothing wrong with temps like that when your heading into the dead of winter, and that is our current direction. Personally, I feel that Spring should be right around the corner, not a little over 2 months away. On the bright side, I saw that 30 days from now we'll be getting a full 54 minutes more of daylight. Now, isn't that a nice thought.
Yesterday was a workout day and a writing day. I've upped the poundage on my dumbbells for the bench press to 25 lbs in each hand. Actually, I upped the weight that I use in all of my dumbbell exercises. Needless to say I'm a bit sore today. There's nothing wrong with having a little bit of ache in your triceps, or your shoulders. Or your quads, even. Six months ago if you'd told me I'd be doing squats with 20 lb dumbbells I'd have called you crazy since I hate squats.
I did print off my 1099 SM yesterday in preparation for doing my income taxes. All I need now is my W2 from the home improvement retailer I work for, and my taxes will be done.
And game playing. I've been playing Outer Worlds 2 since October 29. I've leveled up to the point where I rarely die, and when I do it's usually my fault because I've done something stupid.
Dinner yesterday was a chorizo and rice dish with lots of cilantro. The picture doesn't do it justice, but I will tell you it was quite tasty.

War with Venezuela wasn't on my bingo card of Cankles' Catastrophes but here we are!
ReplyDeleteThe administration wasn't getting any traction with the National Guard in cities, so they pulled out all of the stops. Still, this is nothing more than a distraction from the Epstein files.
DeleteThat meal looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteIt was tasty. I should have used fresh cilantro rather than dried, the colors would have popped more.
DeleteIt won’t end well for the trumpster, he is going mad quickly now, and can’t understand that nobody agrees with him. He is in his own little world, not a good place to be. Gigi
ReplyDeleteNo, and that is a very good thing. The only way these people will learn is if they are punished severely.
DeleteI have no respect for anything in this country anymore. A superpower???? Their definition is rape, steal, bomb, kidnap, and pillage the countries till their drained. It all about oil and natural resources....
ReplyDeleteBlame your Republican friends, the ones who voted for Trump.
