First Day

I got the post holiday blues and it was hardly a holiday. I’m gonna be beaten by the next real day off.

My day, oye my day was normal. Morning is definitely by rote. All the same. No deviations from the mean.

I had a fine workout. My trainer is trying to be harder on me because I workout and feel like I haven’t. I don’t breathe hard or sweat much. Today she added sets to try and get me. Also much harder exercises as well. I told her to bring it on. I think she is afraid to push me too hard. So I have to push her to push me.

After workout we headed home. The plumber, Heinz, was already there. He is doing a few repairs and installing new faucets in the master bath. It’s always a surprise how much these things cost. Faucets are 600$ each. That seems a lot until you realize that was the wholesale price. Retail is 25% higher. Now I have working faucets. A plus.

I left Heinz working and kid sleeping and went to Sacramento. I have a meeting today that I can’t miss. Have to be at the Board of Accountancy for a conference. These people are the worst type of regulator I have ever seen. The kind of people who should be wiped off the face of the earth. They eat their young. It’s difficult to stress how worthless they are, what a waste of skin they are, how unimportant their jobs are. Pieces of shit might be a good description. And dry pieces, because water has value. Anyway, I made that meeting, had a pointless conversation with an automaton and went back to my productive life. There but for the grace of god…..

Worked the rest of my day. Actually accomplished something. Had a final meeting at 4 and finished three tax returns. Seems like a positive day. Esp if you ignore my earlier meeting.

Managed to leave by 530. Tonight we are heading up 49 north to a Mexican place for taco Tuesday. We saw this cafe on our way home from grass valley this past weekend. Decided we should try it out.

Bad news, we finally got there and they were closed. I checked the hours, closed on Tuesdays. Only. Sounds like some Mexicanos unclear on the concept. So we drove down to Combie Rd & 49 to another Mexican place. One we had tried prior and didn’t like. Tonight, the food was really good. Go figure.

We have one more task for tonight. We drove from dinner into Auburn and commenced to purchase all the Thanksgiving food. Remember, we are having Turkey Fay this weekend at Dads in Visalia. We needed to get the food while we have a chance. We won’t be able to shop on Friday since most of the day is work then driving.

After shopping, it was 830, we headed home. Got there and rounded up the cats. Put the dog out. Sat around some. No TV. Go to bed. Thanks, I will.
