The Update!

I don't know...it sounded like a good post title. Let's see what's been goin' on shall we?

On the work front, Kev and I had hoped to get the second elevator turned over late today, but alas, it was not to be. This one is being a bit bitchy to adjust, and has thrown us a loop or two. Last Thursday, we got done adjusting the door operator, and went ahead and hooked up the "Janus Edges" (That's the little widgit that opens the door's back up when you stick your hand in front of it.) and the frickin' thing decided taht it wasn't going to work. We lost a half a day to tearing out the old one and installing a new system. It's always the little things that you can't predict that get you behind. Maybe we can get it adjusted out and "cooked in" by Wednesday afternoon. We'll see.

I had a totally groovetastic weekend. I got to spend some quality time, with a really good friend of mine, Pretty-much all day Saturday, and I got to spend time with friends and family (well, family and friends, actually) on Sunday, as it was my Dad's Birthday shindig. There was a fish fry, cake and ice cream, and wonderful fellowship just everywhere. No two way's about it. Just a great weekend.

As for bad stuff, every time I go to kneel down to pick something up, both of my knees creak like an old rocking chair. Standing up from this position is even worse. My legs ae nearly constantly sore from the bending and twisting, and I get to climb two flights of stairs up to the machine room at least twelve times a day. By the end of each day, my damn "Dog's is Barkin'" if you know what I mean. Ah well, It can't all be "Beer and Skittles", or else I'd get complaisant. Can't have that.

Still drinking way too much beer, but I haven't had the first drop of liqour on a weeknight since I made up my mind I wasn't gonna. No more tardie's either. Still doing well on that front, so I figure I've got that licked. Next up? Less beer, but that really ain't gonna be easy. I'll just take it slow, and see how it goes.
