What did you accomplish today?

Dinner!

I have some more footings to pour, when I actually do the deck, but I just poured two more yesterday because I changed my building plans. Gonna build a gable roof overhang now over that side door.
Wtf was I thinking when I initially designed this house i dunno

that door will probably be the most used door

Sometimes you can't see it until you can see it.

I also put up my tree. I haven't done this since my son was small, about ten years ago. I just felt I needed something extra cheery to ward off the covid isolation blues. You know what? It really worked, I stare at the lights with their various patterns, and when I get high enough, I even sing xmas tunes to myself. How festive...

I played with the branches since this pic to make it look more natural, like a real tree...

Your tree is, appropriately,

Hey! As long as you dont get wet from the rain while taking a step falling to the ground is what I say.

I’d still want stairs and a landing. Maybe I’m spoilt.

I've been taking cold weather rides for the first time since my 20s. I just can't bring myself to workout at home if I can help it, and we've been getting a few days per week of near 50f. I put on the balaclava and the gloves when biking, along with 2 t-shirts and a hoodie. It's cold at first, but as I pedal for a while I warm up and even start sweating. Today was such a day, and I wanted to take a scooter ride all the way to the lakefront, and cruise and chill near the water. My scooter was just tuned up, so I popped in my headphones, geared up, packed my one-hitter to catch a buzz at the lake. Super fun time, except I did have my first wipeout of the season - I was trying to zip up my jacket a little more and only had one hand on the bars. I hit a bump, lost control, fell and slid about twelve feet as I was going almost 30 mph at the time. I was a good, controlled fall with only minor scrapes and scuffs. My good knee was swollen along with a spot on my other leg, but a 20 minute ice session took care of that and I now feel fine. Totally worth it. Tomorrow should be the last nice day, so I'll take one more long bike ride. After that, I'll need to find the resolve to work out on my machines at home...

It's great in your neck of the "woods" when a thunderstorm rolls through and the desert reclaims the roads. I would have thought they would have raised the roads a bit so that didn't happen.
