Day 207: Is it over yet? No... There are still a few of us alive that the COVID hasn't killed off yet... Apparently even the president of the USA now has it too... Which as I see it, is the beginning of the end... It's going to be the dancing in the streets that finishes off the Americans, one big block party, everyone gets is then presto... All gone. Wait, have I started today yet, Hmm... Ok maybe not. I started to make breakfast for everyone, had the batter for the pancakes made up, pan warming up on the stove... Then I hear the noise... Shit the water isn't draining again, I head to the basement and leave breakfast up to Heather to finish. I back washed the hot water heater while I was down there, got the drain pipes cleaned out, blockage in the line likely not far off the edge of the house, not a major issue... All good to go by the time my pancakes and sausage were done. Odd, this kind of thing usually waits for a holiday weekend to happen... Seems to be a week early. I started plowing through the hockey equipment, seems yesterday when in town I dropped off the new skates, his old skate blades, the ones that were the wrong ones... And we'll long story short, everything is down being sharpened... Maybe the boy will have to go on the ice as a player today. Oh wait, seems there is yet another set of goalie skates in the basement his size... Wait there is a complete extra set of gear... I sorted everything out... Yep, I got another few sets of gear sorted out and bagged up, going to have to label these with a type of gear and an age level or something... I have to drop of this one set for the novice kids to use this year. Lots of good deals on gently used gear out there right now... Bought new at the beginning of last season and then only use part of the year due to COVID and now the kids have out grown them... Going to have to keep my eyes open. While I worked on hockey gear the boy bailed on me... He went for a bike time eith his friends. On his return we had a quick bite to eat then Lawson and I head out for Ringette in Iroquois Falls. After warm-up and a few skating drills the coach cut him loose from the herd... Took him to the net with another assistant and they actually did goalie drills with him. Well there's something the hockey team still hasn't figured out. I mentioned to the coach afterwards that that was more goalie training than he got all last year with his hockey team. Apparently he went to the trouble to get another goalie to sit down with him and put together some stuff for Lawson to work on... Very impressed. While we were away Heather made dinner for us... We got home to chicken fingers and veggies, fried potatoes as well for the boy... And we stood around and ate as the things came out of the fryer Made use of the drink glasses again, and then had leftover breading stuff... Hmm... I got out and cut up some jalapeno jack cheese, cut it in cubes, battered, breaded those and fried them up as well... Hey what about mushrooms? The vodka was taking over the cooking process... I found a few more things the the fridge that fried up nicely before running out of pork rinds... Yes breading made from pork rinds ground up in the blender... Omg so good, gf, low carbs... Only ate a few bags tonight, yup more diet food... Gotta hate it. After dinner the 3 of us sat down on the bed to watch some videos while Heather continued to tie knots in things. Then all was dark again.
