Last night, when the furnace kicked on, the intake vent sounded like a jet engine. Climbed up on a chair to check it (it's in the ceiling) - yeah, the filter looked like a gray fleece sweater (we need a vomit emoji) and was choking the system. It obviously hasn't been changed since my FIL passed a year ago. Thanks for watching over things BIL

Working on it. I’m out of things to sell lol.
Once I got on my bike my legs felt good, but still took it slow.
Fun fact the bike computer works but only when I am not on the bike.

The boat window is tinted plexiglass, about 11’ long, and curved. It is painted black on parts of the inside, and has a cutout for an opening port. The boat manufacturer is the only place you can get it, and they want about $3k for the window, port, and gasket. There is nobody I know that will come to the marina to do the work. I could take it to a yard about 40 miles away and have them do the work, but then I’d have to add about $1k each way to take the mast down, pull the boat from the water, haul it over and back with a large truck, put the mast back up, and then launch it.
Love sailing. Hate this type of stuff. The boat is getting old like it’s owner. 😔

One of the things I really liked about having my little 22’ Rocket was the ability to trailer it to my house for maintenance.
Wouldn’t mind going back to something like that. Maybe a J70?

This is awful. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone.
I’ve been up since 2 alternating between sweating to death and freezing.

I get my first Pfizer dose on the 8th. Hopefully I'll not have too much bad reaction. Worse yet a psychotic reaction.

Yeah, I'm getting to be less happy with him. Last year, then plan was to sell the house and get mom in to an assisted living facility, but we pumped the brakes on that with the pandemic. Thinking that it's time to revisit the issue, my wife asked, "so, what are we thinking about in terms of selling the house?"
His response was, "free rent." I mean, at least have the decency to have a symbiotic relationship, mow the ******g lawn, pull weeds, change the furnace filters, etc, rather than be straight-up parasitic.

Spring Classics are my faves. Been out of the loop this year. When is Paris Roubaix?
Maybe I can catch a replay of this one.
