Day 195: Just another Garbage Day... Lawson woke me up at 7:30 DOH!!! OK we can still do this... Garbage and recycling out, check and check, Lunch made (pudding, kiwi, apple, cereal bar, 2 cheese on a bun things baked in the over to golden brown delicious... (that's GBD for those not paying attention) and a juice box... Check. Breakfast, french toast, butter, real maple syrup and a little milk to wash it down... a clean mask, backpack packed and out the door, 30 minutes. Sidekick shows up. He messages me from the driveway, coffee? Ya ya just come in you know where the pot is. Apparently when he took the truck in for a scheduled appointment to have a tire changed, they had forgotten he was coming. Ya ya stick a block of wood under the wheel so it doesn't roll off the jack and we can take care of that this morning. 8 big nuts holding them on... tork specs are really high... not something you want to do on the side of the road in the dark with that shitty like wrench they sell with the truck. I also found out that my weight on the end of the johnson bar only gets about 2/3s the force it use to get. We got the new wheel on and went in for a coffee. Wasn't a long visit, he needed to get back to work. Talked a little about a mini van he's thinking about picking up to add another vehicle to the company fleet. I eventually got back to fixing my resume, yes something else I was supposed to do this weekend that is just now getting done. Maybe I can get a job that pays money and not have to start on project Y LOL. The boy got home and went to the basement to watch some videos before hockey tonight. Dinner... wasn't leftover night supposed to be yesterday before garbage day... Oh man this is going to be a tough week. We had some buns Heather made last night... and some meat I sliced up on the meat slicer at 2:30 AM (I guess the report technically should have started with that), so I had a nice meat and cheese sandwich, Heather had hers with meatballs from last nights dinner and Lawson Had the rest of the Pizza and wings from the weekend. OK fridge is a little more clean now. Off to Hockey... we arrive with 15 minutes to get fully dressed in goalie gear and get on the ice. Not a problem, 10 minutes later he was lined up ready to hit the ice and I was out the door like Bobby Orr. Date night... Heather and I went to Timmies for a coffee. Made it back in time to watch the last 10 minutes of practice. He was literally just skating out of the net and taking the pucks away from the kids and shooting them in the corner before they got a chance to shoot... good lord I knew there was a reason I didn't want to come in... LOL, As long as he's having fun out there this year... pretty much the best we can hope for. A long ride home, and then a snack before bed... Lawson went, Heather went... yet I'm still looking for my blanky... can't find it, the wife doesn't share hers, hope the the furnace hold out the winter.
