Valentine's Day


Happy Valentine's Day to all you lovers out there. My mother and father were married on Valentine's Day by Reverend Valentine close to 80 years ago. My anniversary's coming up in about a month, just a few days before I go back to work again. It'll be 54 years this time around. 

I shoveled snow yesterday for about an hour in the morning. My chest was sore later in the day but I think some of that was brought about by the back muscles tightening up and sitting bent over reading or farting around on the laptop. The bottom fell out on the temperatures later in the day. It was about 8 degrees at about 8:00, and it continued to fall. I lit the fireplace and kept it fed until I went to bed and stoked it up again first thing this morning. I'm planning on another day of hibernation today - going to catch up on some reading and do a little work down in the basement. I haven't worked on my winter project at all this year. Good time to get a little progress made.

I was planning on going to Indy tomorrow for the motorcycle show but they're forecasting snow once again. I-65 is risky enough in good weather, don't need to chance it when it's slick. If it's not too cold, I'll crank up the heat in the shop and putter around out there for a bit.

For some reason I get an error message every time I try to respond to a comment or post one on a blog somewhere else. I'm not ignoring you Marshall, it just isn't working.

blogger won't send comment from my two blogs to my email half the time. or puts a comment in spam sometimes even if it was... now MY chest hurts just a little bit. it actually does because I too shoveled some snow, it wasn't even very mush shovelling.
