Relaxing and Cleaning
We did some relaxing today as well as some cleaning. Not really much else though.

Plants Planted
Today Mark left for his dad's. So Warren and I took the time to plant the plants for the spring. I think we have a good mix this year. I overplanted the tomatoes, so I'll just have to take the best few plants that grow. Warren was kind of a
School Skate Night
Today Warrens school had a skate night at the local skate rink. Warren had never been, and Mark has only been a few times. We brought along their scooter to ride, as neither of them can really skate in skates. The place was packed with not only the school, but
A Video for Work
Both of the boy's scooter wheels aren't turning very well. They are rideable, but not smooth. Today I took Marks apart and the bearings in them were all shot. They wouldn't turn at all, the wheels only moved because the bolt was loose enough on them. Luckily, I had some
New Thermostat
Our Ecobee thermostat seems to be having trouble. It's shutting down and erroring out more and more. I ordered a new one the other day and today I got around to changing it out. It wasn't too hard to do.... once I followed the instructions. I tried placing all the
Haircut and Marks Audition Class
After work today I went and got my haircut. It's been a while since I have had it cut. The haircut place we go to seems to have a huge turnover, the new people just aren't as good. Though I do like how my hair came out, but I forgot
Relax
Today we just kind of recovered from the late game last night. Nikki cleaned up the house and I cleaned up the garage. I want to make a youtube video on maintenance for my outboard, so it needs to be clean.
Go Utes!
I was up at 4 a.m. and took my parents to the airport. It was a super windy drive. I got home and went back to bed. When I woke up I started working in the garage. I want to film a video of how to change the water
A Windy Day
The wind really picked up in the evening. It started to snow as well. Everyone in the house headed to be early. I am getting up early to drive my mom and Mark to the airport, so I am getting in bed really early.
Noodles
I made noodles to go with dinner tonight from scratch. They turned out really amazing, the kids always love homemade noodles. While I made those, Nikki worked on making Beef Stroganoff. Both of them turned out really good. Mark ate a pepper corn, so he thought the beef was too
Final Swim Class
Warren had his final swim class of this session. He did really well, he needs to work on his front crawl, so we will do that in the pool over the summer. For the final class the last 15 minutes of it the kids just get to play. The instructors
Take Your Husband to Work Day
Well not really. I am maxed out on PTO at work. So I took the day off and ran around with Nikki to see the people she needed to see for her company. It was a really nice time. We went to the gym, then went and visited her clients
Second to Last Swim Lessons
Warren had swim lessons today. He has one final one Wednesday. He is doing really really good. There are three kids in his class, and the teacher seems to be taking Warren out the most. Warren has really got his kicking down, and his different stroke type are coming along
Outboard Maintenance Prep
I am getting together a list of parts I need to do maintenance of my Tahatsu Sailpro 6 outboard for my Catalina 22. It's been used for two years with the gear oil the only thing that I have ever changed. It works perfect every time. With the exception of
Near Disaster!
I logged on to create a blog post earlier today. As I was creating the post I was getting a timeout issue. Sometimes it would save, and other times it wouldn't. I logged into the VM server to see what was going on. The server also seemed to have issues
Great Workout
For my workouts, I went back to week 3 this week. I attempted the 10 minute run at 5.8mph last weekend and failed it twice. For some reason, I couldn't keep it up after 5 minutes. Even after running for 8 minutes just days before. So I'll do week
