Four on the floor

My extended four day weekend has come and gone much quicker than I had hoped. On Saturday morning I met up with Jason, the guy I helped with the initial stages of learning to ride EUCs. We rode the old golf course in Golden Gate. I let him borrow my S22 for the ride since his wheel is currently getting repaired. We did two full laps of the course which has some challenging terrain. Jason handled the challenges well, especially for someone that has been riding for less than two months.

Saturday afternoon I watched Christine’s son’s football game, who is 12. At this level they only have 10 minute quarters. Even so the game seemed to take forever, there were countless game stoppages by the ref’s that were hard to interpret.

During the day Sunday after playing pickleball I got around to finally replacing the old shitty brass doorknob set that leads to the garage with a brushed nickel handle style to match the rest of the house. I have been wanting to do this since I moved in and somehow never got around to it. The job took all of 15 minutes. As a bonus the door now closes easily. With the old knob the door required a sizeable pull/slam for the latch to actually engage.

Sunday night Christine and her two boys came over to watch the FSU/LSU game. Christine is a FSU alumni and a huge football fan. It was the first time both of the boys hung at my place which was cool. Christine was pleased with the outcome of the game.

On Labor Day I had the cleaning crew scheduled to clean my house. Before they showed up I headed out on a ride to kill time since I didn’t want to get in their way. It turned out to be a very long ride with me not returning to the house until close to noon. About 2/3 into it I stopped at Christine’s place so she could join me on her One Wheel. We had a good ride.

During Labor Day afternoon I helped Christine organize the storage area of her place. We moved some stuff around and I built a couple shelves that allowed her to get other stuff off the ground. It was hot and sweaty work but the end result was worth it.

Labor Day evening I did a live stream that covered roughly 2 hours. I was a bit tired so it wasn’t easy to get through but I think it went well overall.

My final day off yesterday was pretty slow paced. In the morning I shot a video review of an air inflator I was sent for free. Somehow I am now on the list for a number of companies to shoot short video reviews of their products. My payment for these reviews is getting to keep the product which I often give away to someone else.

I normally play volleyball on Tuesday nights. I decided to skip it last night as I was feeling a little low energy. Instead I had my longest session of WoW hardcore which was sort of fun. During it I almost died twice in 60 seconds which was funny but pretty stressful in the moment.

I now engage in a short 3 day week, I could get used to this.
