I need to start getting more exercise again because I need to keep expending calories in my pursuit of weight loss.

    Don’t we all? I think a road ride is in my future tonight…

    Last night I fired up the electric fence. There were a couple of spots where the old fence I connected to passed some big trees and the line was either touching or too close, as there was arcing (probably because it was still damp). After some adjustments/additions of insulators, I lit it back up. I went along with the meter to check that it had good power through its length. Note to self- just because the meter reads 1.0 instead of 11 or 12, do not check it with your hand! The meter wasn’t grounded well, but I was!! YEEEOOOWWW! (it wasn’t all that, but it still stung).

    I think todays rain will just be normal and not tropical storm induced. But still annoying!

      I can’t complain about the rain…….. the sod is looking good so far.

        I’m complaining about the rain: I’m missing it! I swear every time I head outside it’s during a pause. I have this cute new umbrella to use and I still haven’t been able to use it. 🙂

        My grass is growing well — too well. I need to find a morning very soon during which I can cut it. 🤬

    Nothing exciting going on out here OTP, Allan is working at the Hamilton show tonight (& tomorrow night), so I’ve got free time.
    Not sure what I will do.

      Inspired by you the other week, I’ve set up a massage appointment tonight, Barb. I can’t wait until the workday is over now.

      Speaking of workday…any more news about what you’re going to do, Barb? Are you for sure going back to the old place?

        I need to talk to the big boss again, possibly this evening.
        They did confirm that I go back to my original hire date (like I have never been gone) for vacation accrual days, etc.
        I think I will text him later today to set up a time to talk again, if he doesn’t text me first.
        I think I will go back, now that a girl I like (and think is smart) is doing a lot of my old job now, so as long as they agree to leave her in place, I think the 2 of us can make a decent team. And, be able to work with a lot less stress.

        and MASSAGE, enjoy!!!! Sue has started using that cupping technique, I’m not sure about it – but I did get some lovely circular bruises from it on my back, I felt like celebrity or sports athlete.

          Hahaha! I’ve never done the cupping but it looks interesting. Carey Lynn (my friend) uses bamboo, essential oils, reflexology and moist heat….I’m intrigued. She wasn’t using bamboo the last time I went so who knows what’s gonna happen to me? 😉

            The bamboo rods help the therapist to not have to use as much of their own muscles. I like the bamboo. let me know tomorrow how wonderful it is.
            Be careful, the essential oils cult will get you, I’m not sold on their all healing powers, but I do have a diffuser & use them here & there. (they aren’t cheap for the real oils, and I’m told, the fake oils just aren’t the same)

    Lol. A guy here at work has started calling me “Jeff”. I realized it too late to correct him, so now I think I will let it play out.

    — Jeff

      Jeff can be your alter ego. He’s smooth with the ladies, used to play lacrosse and vacations in the Mediterranean. Kind of a playa but not a dick about it.

      Who else wants to run with this?

      • Paulie [eatl/ga] says:

        I’m okay with all but the Mediterranean part. I can’t even pretend to like the heat and beaches…

      • Barb says:

        The Mediterranean isn’t always warm……. trust me on that.

      • Stacy says:

        He’s the kind of Jeff who would never wear loafers without socks, always carries a handkerchief should a woman unexpectedly need one, and has been known to buy a round of drinks for a room and then leave before anyone could discover who to thank.

    BRAG IS 3 DAYS AWAY!!!
    I suppose I should start packing, bike is prepped though and logistics figured out so it’s all coming together nicely. Can’t wait for a week of riding bikes and drinking beer.

    Alter egos can be fun, I had a friend who when he drank enough an alter ego would come out. That was some funny shit.

      Kerry’s comment on FB yesterday about a ride to the start made me laugh – how many people on the Chattahooligan page are going to BRAG? I think it would have almost annoyed me enough to say, sorry, trucks are full.

        I did get a laugh out of it, there really only 2 going and Mike never responds to anything. Not sure who she thought would respond to that.
