    So just looked up our departure times for Florida this Saturday and there's a warning show up early blah blah and we are requiring negative covid tests wtf. Call them to get details because there are 11 of us flying out in 2 days. The guy said oh its fine that's only for international flights and LAX fücking california.

    Replaced the faucet for the kitchen sink. What genius attaches the supply lines in the faucet assembly with slip fittings and o-rings? Makes it a tad difficult to tighten the supply lines from the shutoffs.....

    I'm still troubled by what I did for that Klondike bar...

    No phone, no text and no cable tv. What is this? The dark ages? At least I still have internet.

    My tinnitus has been getting worse lately then last night in the dark I noticed some strange visual apparitions. First I saw some strobing then I noticed a field of white dots like looking at starts across my field of view. Could be Visual Snow Syndrome, a rare condition that's associated with tinnitus.

    Lost power and some big trees. Still raging wind but managed to get one of the trees cut up.

    More firewood to cut!
    Glad everything is ok other than more work to do

    Got my port removed.

    That's outstanding, Nick. I hope that's all behind you and that you never need another one.

    Enjoy Edward! I have one of those out for later! Now a E and J Fresh Rolled! Also excellent!

    That's what an ice cream maker does in the winter when not vacationing in Florida. Great career choice Charlie.

    Here's the symptom aggravators for VSS / Tinnitus

    1. Stress ✔️
    2. Lack of sleep ✔️
    3. Cold/flu
    4. Alcohol ✔️
    5. Caffeine ✔️
    6. Too much sodium
    7. Too much sugar

    I picked up some sleep, skipped having any alcohol (or tobacco) yesterday, and did another wax removal treatment on my left ear (which was ringing the loudest and keeping me up), and the tinnitus is barely noticeable now. The VSS only appeared twice, once a the height of the tinnitus the other night and just a flash of a star field when I flicked on the lights.

    The catch 22 is that lack of sleep makes it worse, but tinnitus makes it hard for me to sleep.

    Wouldn’t the lack of tobacco raise your stress level?

    Anybody have any ideas/insight for where to find used or discounted downhill ski stuff? One of the boys is joining ski team... I have done some searching but figured someone might have a good idea.
