I still need to learn how to mount the front disc.^^^^
Judging by how quickly and how thoroughly I got winded on my ride around the yard, It’s looking like my low grade flu might actually have been COVID. The sore throat was the one symptom I had throughout, but only at night, and Thursday night it kept me awake. In fact the sore throat was the only symptom I had, other than low energy. And that intermittent cough.
Cold, flu, COVID ——- Spruce, pine, fir.

Thats what I thought, but if it is I can’t find it. The line to the patio was added when we did the built in BBQ 15 years ago. The electrician that did it tapped into the master bedroom circuit since it’s on the other side of the exterior wall. It has no GFCI outlets, and the circuit includes all the outlets and the ceiling light. The master bath in on, and the one GFCI in that circuit is not tripped.
This picture is the BBQ island. The original outlet is on the right side by the white stool and trash can.
The new grill requires an electrical outlet, so I need to move it from the right side to the new box shown. The original GFCI is being replaced with a conventional outlet that will be protected by the relocated GFCI (wired from the load side of the GFCI). The Nomex coming out of the wall was tapped into the bedroom circuit when the island was built. I tested the Nomex coming out of the house, and no power.

With the stuff out on the same circuit, it leads me to believe the breaker is the culprit, if there's no circuit interrupter in the bedroom. Odd that it would act up with very few uses, but stranger things can happen. That's where swaptronics may come into play. Switching the breaker with known good type deal.

A.M. stations have been limited to 50K watts since 1931, according to the webz. The X in that song is XERB, "The Big X", which was based in Mexico. Stations in Mexico were able to go to 150K watts back then, don't know if they still can. We used to listen to the Big X all over Southern and even part of central California. It's where we heard Wolfman Jack.

Went to the in-laws for an easter shin dig. Holy hell Simon is a lot of work. I feel really bad for my wife. She’s been out of it lately and now I finally get it. Simon kind of makes it impossible to do anything. I didn’t enjoy one minute of the easter shin dig, was too busy chasing him around the whole time. He was happy for the most part but just doesn’t sit still. The second you turn your back he is trying to kill himself.
Now I get it. my wife literally can’t do anything while I am at work. When he does take a nap she is too exhausted to do anything but try and nap herself.
I think she has anger because the other young moms have solid help for their parents. Her mom is awesome and would help but has to work, and we covered mine. My mom is already saying she wants to help while i’m in Dallas but Lily has to call her, which she won’t. I need to sit down with my mom and lay it out there. She can’t help. She thinks Simon will just sit on here lap and be good, she doesn’t get it nor does she understand why we have such a hard time. Lily would need her to either watch Simon basically all day while she put everything away or put everything away while Lily watch Simon.
I really don’t think May is going to go well and I don’t see any solution. Her parents offered to stay at our house, but they don’t even get off work until the kids are asleep, so it would just be more work for Lily.

I have no use for this information.
I took Vimovo several years ago, until the insurance stopped paying. Now DIY Vimovo with the component parts. Except the witch doctor drug person refused to do an Rx for the nexium, so I have to get it over the counter. 
Sad. At least for the first time in the Barnes era we got beat by a better team in the NCAAT. So I guess that's progress.
Explain to me how these attention spans were measured. Start with the goldfish.

I'm surprised the rotors weren't mounted in China.

A book by Grant Petersen was included with the bike. I think it will be a good read. We think alike, cycling wise, at least from what I’ve gleaned from the first few pages

It's a pretty safe bet these days although I think it was some Marin bikes from 2018-19 that were from Vietnam.
