Editing, Playing, Didn’t See it, For the Birds, Liar

I’m now on the final day of my four day weekend. It has been quite a busy extended weekend so far, in a good way. I worked on getting the overhead light area that I installed in the guest bathroom last week trimmed off. I installed a small piece of molding along the leading edge, caulked the sides and filled the screw holes. It could probably still use some touch up paint work yet but it doesn’t look bad.

I also got to use my Dewalt power brad nailer for the first time. It is nice, allowing me to pop in the brad nails that hold the trim in place easily. I went around the fence line and popped some more brads into the boards that were a bit loose as well, it was sort of fun.

I played a lot of pickleball, surprise surprise. I played everyday since Friday, including yesterday. I met my work group to play after going to the gym prior. I got to use my new Proton paddle for the first time, I really like it. Yesterday I played pickleball straight through the eclipse. It was barely visible in Florida so it didn’t break my heart.

I also got to hang a bird feeder in the back yard. I have had a hook for one mounted since December but have neglected to get a feeder to hang on it. I picked out a nice blue feeder, filled it with bird food and hung it up.

Within a few hours I saw my first birds and squirrel utilize the feeder which made me smile. I may actually get a second feeder as the one I bought is more for small birds. I saw a blue jay struggling to stay on the perch. The squirrel is funny to watch as he hangs upside down from the fence while pulling out the seed.

On Saturday night I did a 3 hour plus live stream. During it I opened up the V13 that I traded for. I was a bit bummed to see the kickstand got smashed in during shipping somehow, getting pushed up against the tire to the point where it could not turn.

I have done a lot of video editing over the weekend posting three additional videos. I still have a bunch in my head that I want to get shot and edited. I was supposed to get ANOTHER wheel delivered on Monday, a demo wheel from a dealer. I worked my schedule so that I would be home all afternoon when it was supposed to arrive since it required a signature. All of a sudden I get an email from FedEx around 4:30 saying they could not deliver the package because nobody was home, WTF.

FedEx never was at my house and I double checked my Ring cameras to verify it. It annoyed the F out of me but I am used to FedEx pulling this shit. I went in and changed the delivery to go to the FedEx store at a nearby Walmart, I’ll just grab it there. I just love when FedEx lies.

I plan to get a weight session and yoga class in today and then will likely fill the rest of the day with messing with this new wheel and whatever else I feel like getting done. It’s been a very enjoyable extended weekend. I feel like I need to extend them more often. Here are the other videos I posted.
