Road Runner Posted September 1, 2014 Share #1 Posted September 1, 2014 It IS Labor Day, after all. I'm going to be doing some washing of bike clothes (by hand), fixing some meals, washing dishes, doing some minor painting jobs and grocery shopping. I might even shave today. Lots of work but I guess that's what this day is all about. Isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralphie ★ Posted September 1, 2014 Share #2 Posted September 1, 2014 Good morning! I will also be doing works of the light chore variety, but mainly I hope to get a nice long (for me) ride in and also some A-1 relaxing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution 2Far ★ Posted September 1, 2014 Solution Share #3 Posted September 1, 2014 Yes. I am at work. and other than making a few random posts on otherwise anonymous internet forums, I am getting a lot accomplished. I did hit the gym this am. Kept it light & bumped the reps 20% each set. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2Far ★ Posted September 1, 2014 Share #6 Posted September 1, 2014 You are a hard working man, 2Far. Hoss would be proud! Thanks, but I wouldn't go so far as to say that I'm working too hard. OTOH, if'n I'm not here, that work cannot be done. So for today, I'm valuable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2Far ★ Posted September 1, 2014 Share #8 Posted September 1, 2014 Excellent! Triple or so time. Dunno exactly. At least double. We're on a T&M job & I do get 8 hours for the holiday. Might be a 74 hour pay week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I guess you are going to be retiring pretty soon, huh, with all this concentrated work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Far ★ Posted September 1, 2014 Share #10 Posted September 1, 2014 So I guess you are going to be retiring pretty soon, huh, with all this concentrated work. I'm putting 25% into the 401(k) each week. I only became eligible to contribute in May & if my calculations are correct, I'll max out on the last pay period of the year.

goldendesign Posted September 1, 2014 Share #12 Posted September 1, 2014 Worked on the house bathroom remodeling again this morning, ready for paint. Gonna go grocery shopping after I finish a homework assignment and then off for a 12-9 shift at the shop. Yay, Labour Day, Yay! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kzoo Posted September 1, 2014 Share #13 Posted September 1, 2014 I fixed a sticky closet pocket door. WoKzoo will be happy. I have a flaky light fixture in the kitchen to look at next. Nothing here that's going to make me sweat. EDIT: Oh, and I'm running a backup on my laptop as I type this. That has to count for something.

Kzoo Posted September 1, 2014 Share #15 Posted September 1, 2014 Hell, here, walking to the car makes me sweat. I don't plan on walking that for or, if I have to, walking outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Road Runner Posted September 1, 2014 Author Share #16 Posted September 1, 2014 I don't plan on walking that far or, if I have to, walking outside. I feel your pain. I hate to destroy my clean scrubbed feeling by going outside and starting the sweat machine. I'll be a slimy mess in a half hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoneWolf Posted September 1, 2014 Share #17 Posted September 1, 2014 Had to quick remote in to a client's network to make a tweak to a project I was doing for them last week, about 15 minutes of my time. Hoping to mow the lawn this evening if it doesn't storm. I'm going to have to bag the grass; the weather has made it grow like it was in the Amazon, and it has been too wet for me to do it so it's a lot higher than I'd like.

Dirtyhip Posted September 1, 2014 Share #18 Posted September 1, 2014 Only trail work and some house work. I'm going to slip in a Mountain bike ride today as well. Lady of leisure today. Back to work tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destination Posted September 1, 2014 Share #19 Posted September 1, 2014 I'm supposed to have a week off this week, but I had to work Saturday and Sunday. My plan for today had been to get out for a multi-day ride, but right now I'm tired and I don't feel like doing much of anything. Maybe later.

MoseySusan Posted September 1, 2014 Share #20 Posted September 1, 2014 Yes, I'm working. I just finished documenting my weekly lesson plan for Eng 10, and now I'm taking a break before grading personal narratives and feature article analysis. The rest of the family went to the mountains to gather pinon nuts. They might also get a bushel of roasted green chile to bag and freeze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parr8hed Posted September 2, 2014 Share #21 Posted September 2, 2014 I am on call. So far I have fielded a few calls and referrals but have not had to do any real work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destination Posted September 2, 2014 Share #22 Posted September 2, 2014 I got on the road around 2:45 p.m. and I had a good ride. Tomorrow might be a short day of cycling as the forecast is for rain and thunderstorms all afternoon. The ride felt good and I don't feel as weary or as stressed as I did a few hours ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
