Not much time today as I was rewarded with some ‘free’ time. Of course I can explain all that and will. It is Sunday and the momentum continues to roll and unless I am completely daft accelerating.

OK, if not accelerating showing then no sign(s) of slowing down.

THERE’S A LOT TO EXPLAIN THERE OGO SO PROCEED POR FAVOR.

What don’t you get?

No, wait let me guess. EVERYTHING.

Very well.

So S1 sends text msg last night inquiring a morning skate in Allen. OK. Se we did that.

HOW DID THAT GO?

Look. If yu are going to follow up every little knot-noid I will be here ALL DAY and I cannot afford to do that.

OK. NO MORE QUESTIONS OR INTERRUPTIONS.

You know, I’m starting to like you.

So we had a great skate. Lots of passing, little plays, give-and-go and it was fun. Actually above half-speed a few times. I continued to work on transitions, crossovers and I must confess there are moments of terror. I am feeling something wrong with my blades perhaps. Strength or confidence is lacking with quick stops and turns which I did work on however the edges seem to dig deep into the ice more than I remember or should.

Afterwards I though we would go for breakfast but he had some plans which was fine. I was ready and available so came home to commence the day plan.

Here I am.

Images today getting going around dawn. I think they are cool.

I have an art client coming over at 1:00. Customer bought a sign for a Christmas gift and at pickup had some questions and an inquiry for a follow-up project they wanted was agreed to after the Holidays. Well they texted last night. OK.

All of the Plants are SCREAMING for water. I think a little fertilizer in with the water today will translate into rewards later. I THINK they are sensing the longer daylight with lengthening days.

I am excited about supper. Turkey noodle soup. Pulled some stock out of the deep freeze thawing in the sun on the counter. Probably actually warming the place up.

It looks very nice outside and it sort of is to look at. Not quite 16 so no bike ride. It is so nice to have such concrete structure (rules) in one’s life. Coming home from the rink, I saw a pack of 5-6 riders and I am thinking idiots. Too cold to ride.

Closer to home a solitary rider and again bundled up to the max and I am thinking this would NOT be fun. Under 16 the chill factor could and has affected my health in the winter. I checked the 10-day forecast and not until NEXT Sunday will we have 16+ and sunshine so lots of indoor work.

Which is fine. No, beyond that it is PERFECT.

There is so much to do right now with taxes, planning and of course projects.

Why today THIS MORNING I created a mess in my upstairs closet drilling two (2) holes routing a cord and plug to an outlet. The four (4) large fluorescent bulb fixtures are not responding quickly enough and I am thinking taking (wasting) too much energy.

SOLUTION: A Makers Mark bottle lamp with a single low-wattage LED. Thumb switch, shoulder height easily found in the dark and I am suddenly much better off. Can't explain why I didn't do this sooner.

Gotta go.

Post up, insert images and carry on.

Suggesting YOU do the same.

Achieve escape velocity and get out of here.
