Biggest hailstorm ever in Austin (Cedar Park) last night. Thought that the roof might collapse on me. Surprised that the windows were still intact afterwards.

Let's see what the temp is right now in San Diego...62F(17c) mostly cloudly. In Cedar Rapids right now..21F (-6c)..burr! and if you factor in the wind chill it feels like -6F..double burr!!
Last Wednesday, for the first time since November, we had a low temperature that was not in the 30s F or a lot colder (In January we had many mornings well below zero with highs in the single digits this year and the snow stayed on the ground straight from just before Christmas, until the first of February). Had a couple of days actually get into the 60s this week...but a cold front came through and we may have snow in the morning and again on Friday.

But by next week we're supposed to be back in the 50s.

YARGG!!
The apartments above of mine are having there floors ripped up. Since I work third shift I am a day sleeper so guess what time view are working? Yup. And amazingly enough they found the one damned work crew willing to work until 7PM
 
You know you guys can still rant on about the weather. This thread is supposed to be about real life, aka no rules right? ;)

Oh and I just woke up. Feelin' a lil sick lately. Lots of arguments with my gf because we just broke up. Hopefully all will reconcile.

My wife is going out to her parents farm to day to help out her mom who has Parkinsons. She goes out there about once a month. I'm planning a NETFLIX

Well let's see what I did yesterday...
Okay, here's my acorn:

Got up 0630
Bathroom time
Checked email
Prayed over our day with wife
Ate breakfast
Checked computer and did a few minutes of modeling
Went to work at 0730
Worked hard doing my thing - Checked emails at break time
Came home for lunch with wife at 1200
Back to work at 1230
More hard work - Check emails at break time.
Came home at 1715
A few modeling issues
Watched TV (usually Pawn Stars, Love it or List It, House Hunters, Restaraunt Impossible, Restaraunt Stakeout, etc.)
Ate dinner at 1845
Watched TV with Wife (Antique Roadshow, Gold Rush, O'Reilley, Hannity, Cup Cake Wars, Alaska State Troopers, or Chopped)
Bathroom time around 2030
Worked on models for a couple of hours...interspersed computer time.
Read a chapter in a book (Scriptures, Sci-Fi, Military stuff, History, classics).
Prayed with wife and thanked God for another day
Hit the hay 2300-2330

Those are my weekdays...pretty much routine.

Now, emergencies, calls for help/assistance from family or friends or neighbors, car troubles, dental or medical issues, etc. can interfere with that from time to time.

Weekends are dfferent, accomplishing chores, taking gransdkids to movies, shooting, or building models with me. Church activities on Sunfay, etc.

Has brought us a comfortable living.
