So Many Peanuts

“Peanut Bowl” Cedar Park, 2022

Mariko was at Costco and bought a container of peanuts. She only needed a few for the dish she was making, so now we have a huge amount of peanuts to eat. And since I am the only one who eats them, it’s up to me to not waste! So I am a little tired of peanuts… But I am determined to finish them… eventually. 😁

New Roof

“Trashed Roof” Cedar Park, 2022

Today we had a new roof put onto our house. The roofing crew started at about 7:15 am, and finishes at 4 pm. What an operation! It was loud as heck, and coupled with Lani’s constant barking, my ears hurt. I didn’t do my morning co-working stream on Twitch because it was so disruptive.

But I am glad the original 17-year old roof has been replaced. Insurance will cover the cost of it (minus deductible) because there was so much hail damage. And this roof has some crazy warranty… something like 30 or 50 years!

Anyways, now I have to find someone to clean up the temporary hole damage that the raccoons made. There’s always something… 😅

Regular readers of the blog will have noticed that I am posting a lot about my new bicycle. I absolutely love it, though! I think Bromptons are just odd, funky bikes. I’ve got some plans forming to go on a bike tour with it in 2023. Hopefully I can squeeze it into what should be a busy year of traveling.
