    Meeting tonight canceled. Lack of quorum because of the caucus. Looks like I'll be able to go myself.

    Don't push yourself with this one. I've had that crap for over two weeks, it comes and go's and has been a bugger to shake.
    Working from home today because of it, and I need to plow.

    Don't push it, give your body time to do its thing and you will recover more quickly (yeah, I know, easier for me to say than you to do)

    Ugh!



    Took my truck into the local GMC dealer for some warranty work..
    Thought about grabbing a rental, Rachel is still sporting the Chrysler town and country van..
    Figured id pick up a chevy malibu to beat around in..
    Then i got to thinking.. I still have my 1 ton.. Its at my Dad's, in the soft back yard.

    Ok cool, so the shuttle driver gives me a ride home from the dealer.
    i Text my Dad, tell him i'll be up later for my truck because my other truck is getting worked on.
    An hour later, or so... He texts me back. "Truck is stuck".

    My Dad... He isnt the best at or i mean he is horrible at driving vehicles
    on soft ground. He will get the burried. He has no skill with the gas pedal.
    Its hammer down, all the time.
    And a 1 ton dually, thats 2wd.. Not a good idear.


    Tomorrow will be fun.
    Im not even making the trip to my Dad's to get my truck.
    It can stay burried until late Spring.


    If it aint one thing, its another.

    The good news is that the new snow makes the giant snow drift in backyard look nicer than its current brown dirt blown look. Bummer is, new snow is adding to drift, poor dogs will have to stay in the temporary small yard til it melts. May?

    Mine get more complicated every year. At least turbotax makes it easier.

    I recall my dad toiling over heaps of paperwork back in the day.
