  1. I got around to looking on Meetup, and I found a board game meetup that meets on Saturday afternoons. I haven’t really been able to play with anybody other than my wife since the pandemic. Assuming I don’t decide at the last minute that I don’t want to leave the house, that’s my big plan for the weekend.Report

      1. It’s at the local “Real Estate Entrepreneur’s Center,” whatever that is. I imagine it will be a bit quieter than the game store or a tap house.Report

  2. Currently recovering from booster #2 – the fever and stomach upset are gone, but I’m still tired and a little achy.

    I’m also waiting on the city to deliver a demolition dumpster; Tuesday the home renovation kicks into high gear as I empty the remaining contents of my savings account into the general contractor’s pocket. Really hoping there are no bad surprises; I’ve been offered a six-months’ grace period (interest free) to pay what I DON’T have cash on hand for, but who knows if there’s even worse damage to the siding-under-the-siding and the window frames than his pessimistic estimate.

    So I’m going to be sticking close to home and spending as little money as possible on other things until I’ve got this paid off in full. (I COULD take out a loan against my retirement account but I really do not want to)

    Also once I get feeling totally better I have to box up my various tchotchkes because he thinks he’s going to have to work indoors, around the windows, and I’m more comfortable boxing up my own stuff than having his guys have to do it, and I’m hoping that maybe saves a few bucksReport

    1. Ooof, glad you got the shot though.

      Good luck with the house! Are you planning on culling anything or is this just an irritating requirement to put things in boxes so they don’t fall off the shelf?Report

      1. I’ve already culled. this is just boxing up the stuff I want to keep in order for there to be space for the dudes to work without them knocking stuff off shelves and stuff. Also furniture will have to be moved; I said I can do MOST of that but I can’t move my piano and probably my sofa myself. But I figure if I have everything else cleared up that will make it easy.Report

  3. Really, Jaybird? Those rainbow suspenders are from the 1970’s? Are you sure? Couldn’t they be from any other decade that they made rainbow suspenders?Report

  4. Home from family vacation Saturday and turnaround and leave for a work convention early Sunday morning. No rest for the wicked, but I’m looking forward to having my own hotel room for a few days.Report
