I know kids from football concussions that had to go 1-2 months with no tv at all, so take it easy askye.

Yeah, when EM got a concussion it was 6-8 weeks before she was back to normal.

I've also learned that nearly every repair starts with a good cleaning. Something I should really take to heart.

Especially anything with mechanical parts! Degrease and de-gunk!

Ha, ha, ha, oops! I was just doing an online yoga class (live) and forgot to turn off my microphone. It was a bit too advanced for me, so I said, "Yeah, this is not working for me," as I got up to log out. The teacher, mid-pose, goes, "And if someone has their microphone on, please mute it," totally in the flow of doing her pose. It was pretty epically poised, actually. Impressive. I'm slightly embarrassed that I made such a rookie Zoom flub, but mostly I'm amused.

So if I am making a worksheet where people have to enter their name, I have to triple check I haven’t asked them to enter their Nadine.

Would be awfully nice if all the world had their own Nadine.

Ha! That did make me snort.

Chitchatting with my eldest this morning as he was moaning about -9F temps. Laughable for me having been raised in that environment, but hysterical for the one who spent his first 28 years in Florida. He doesn't know it but I bought him boots for his birthday. Fool is still walking around in basketball shoes. Anyway next month he is going to a Billie Eilish concert in Pittsburgh so I discussed the whole driving on insane hills on ice thing, since he really doesn't understand either. He has driven plenty in snow last year, but in a city with well maintained pretty flat roads.

Oooh, Discovery + has Rehab Addict, too. I may have to get that.

My old apartment was in the middle of a couple of hills (one along the front, one along the side) and every time there was snow I'd hear people spinning their wheels. Some people never learn to drive on snow. Or even get their cars out of the snow.

We had our Three Year Vision Plan meeting today and I really did not know what to expect from it. About half was actually a motivational speaker. The actual "vision" part feels like science fiction, which I'm going to lean into because, hey, I like science fiction so that might work for me! Also finished my self-eval, a good couple of hours before the deadline, and feel pretty okay about it.

Still have a meeting scheduled with a customer this afternoon or I would be calling it a day.

I just try to avoid it, though I was actually pretty good at it when I was younger, now that I think about it. Well, I mean, I guess most people try to avoid it if they can... though thresholds for what is critical to do when it's snowing vary widely.

I never learned to drive in snow. I've only had to a couple of times and I just, you know, went very slow and hoped for the best. But I live at basically sea level in a temperate zone, a snowstorm would be quite a surprise.
