Soaking It All Up

It's officially day 2 of my spring break (I don't count the weekend) and so far so good. Although I did catch a little cold. Right now it's in my nose, which is all kinds of stuffed up and I'm sneezing like an asshole. I had a bit of a tickle in my throat last night before going to bed but managed to fall asleep without much trouble and had my ding dong dogs not woke me up at 5:00 I'd still be snoozing. Hopefully where I am now with my cold will be the worst of it. 

The weekend was good. Saturday I picked up Birdie from Trip and Susan's around 11:00 and then headed north to Columbus. I made it there in just under 2 hours and after getting her settled I went to the grocery to get goods for dinner. From there I went to Mom's and hung with her for a bit. Maggie, Charlie and Eva landed just after 5:00 and were home by 6:00ish. Sunday was another day of hanging out. Maggie's neighbors came over around 10:30 to watch the F1 race. They just got a new puppy (Norwich terrier named Winston) so while they watch the race, I played with the puppy. So cute! 

I was on the road yesterday around 9:00 and home by 10:30. Jim didn't work because the company is really slow right now so he and I went to lunch. Once home I started on my projects for the week. I put the storage box together and then one set of the chairs and table we got for the patio outside. Each set has two rockers/gliders and a side table. Once I put the first chair together (probably took about an hour) I had it down and the 2nd one only took me about 30 minutes to do. I'll put the other set together today as well as the fire table. After that, I just need my recumbent to be delivered so I can get that all set up. 

Today's plans will entail the above as well as a trip to Aldi and then the typical - walk, exercise. I think I'll get in the pool and do some swimming, running and band work. I was going to do it yesterday but it was so windy and all those red buds were flying everywhere and I didn't want that shit in my tub. Anyway, when I finish here I'll get my yoga on. I think my back pain has turned a corner so I want to get some good stretching in to ensure I don't backslide. 

Dinner tonight: I pulled a pulled pork meal that I get at Aldi so I'll do that with coleslaw and fries. 

And that's all I've got. I need to go sign all my tax stuff now so I can get my money. It isn't much this year but it's something and considering I figured I'd owe, I'm happy. 

Happy Tuesday! Later!
