I ate a snack last night that made me stop and think about my diet. I had some Chips Ahoy cookies and a Zinger.
Ugh. It wasn’t a good snack. When I buy that kind of crap, I should buy some nuts or oranges instead.
Cara and I watched the Olympics all weekend. I’m not a big Olympics guy but I’ve been enjoying the games. Hey, it snowed two inches last night. More shoveling! Ha ha. I’m sick of it!
Have a nice day.

The Olympics started last night. Bob Costas has an eye infection! It’s kind of hilarious. I had a good Tweet:
BREAKING: NBC finds solution to Bob Costas’ infected eye.
Ha ha.
My nephew Lucas got his birthday gifts yesterday. What did we send him?
A blue tuxedo t-shirt and some protein drinks. I love these shirts! I’ve used this gift for three birthdays now. One more to go. Get ready, Emma! I’m an awesome Uncle.
Have a great weekend!

I ran an errand for my father-in-law recently. I went to the laundromat to pick up some, you guessed it, laundry. I walked in with my $10 ticket and made contact with the friendly laundry ladies. They smiled at me, put another ticket on the counter and said, “That will be $40.” I didn’t say anything. I thought maybe my father-in-law had some older stuff there. Then I noticed the second ticket had an different name. I said, I’m sorry but that’s not me. They quickly realized their mistake and told me I looked like another customer. I said, There must be a lot of handsome men who come to this laundromat. I got nothing. You could hear a pin, or in this case, a quarter drop. I thought it was funny.
Today is my nephew’s 18th birthday. Happy Birthday, Lucas!
Ha ha. That’s an old photo. I sent Lucas a couple of things for his birthday and asked him to send me a photo. I’ll post that tomorrow. Time does fly.
Have a great day!

What a heavy/ugly snow. We got about 6 inches last night. I got out the snow blower (Old Snowy) and it was no match for the wet snow. The snow usually shoots out like a rocket! But this morning it oozed out like the ice cream machine on ‘Chopped’. Ha ha. It finally crapped the bed and wouldn’t start back up. So what do you do then?! Cue the Snow Wolf!
The Snow Wolf is a recent gift from my father-in-law. The big wheel lets you move and lift the snow without hurting your back. Its big shovel cuts through the snow like a hot knife through butter! It was an awesome gift! I’ve used it twice since Sunday, ha ha. Crazy weather. I don’t think I’ve ever shoveled snow in the rain before. Ugh. My neighbor was out there with his snow blower at 6:30 AM! Too early, bro.
Have a nice day.

I’m sick of snow. To see how much snow we got yesterday let’s go to the National Weather Service’s Snow Accumulation Depth Gauge, my outdoor table:
I’d say we got about 8 inches. It’s a heavy/wet snow. We’re getting another storm in 15 hours. And this weekend, we could get another storm! The jury is still out on that one. It does make for pretty driving.
At least it’s not 0 degrees.
Have a nice day.
