Clearing Extra Snow ...

Clearing Extra Snow

Photo-A-Day #02578

The other day my neighbor came over to let me know that the gas company couldn't get to her gas meter because mom and dad's car was in the way and that they would be coming back on Monday to try again. So, today while it was fairly warm I took out the snowblower and cleared a larger spot and moved their car further back in the driveway. 

When I was done with that I took the snowblower down to the front of the house and cleared the pathway again because the path I had created got pushed in with more snow from either the apartment across from me or the city. This happens often. I clear and clean and it gets plowed over. While I was doing that I noticed the neighbor across the way was trying to clear out the sidewalk with a single shovel. I walked over and offered to clear it all off for her with the snowblower. She told me that she was the daughter of the people in the house. They are nice people, quiet, keep to themselves, they also use Black Earth Compost. 

I finished it all up quickly and she was very happy to have been saved from a couple hours of work. I guess her dad's snowblower broke and he may have fallen as well. I know that he uses a cane to walk. So I'll keep them on my radar during the next snow. 

As I was widening the path up the sidewalk back to my driveway the snow blew against my fence and pretty much piled on top of my hat and sweatshirt. I had a huge pile of snow on my head after that. So I took this photo.

Tonight I had rehearsal and I don't think it went that well. I have been trying very hard to get off book and learn my lines. I don't have a ton of them, I have a good amount over various scenes but for some reason there are lines I am having a tough time getting. I took the recording of the table read and made myself some files where I can hear the line before mine and then I muted my response so I could work on learning my lines. but then I get to rehearsal and things go right out the window on me. I've got 3 weeks to go and I've got to get these down.

Review: Lumibricks Izakaya Building ...

The folks from Lumibricks sent me their latest building set, the Izakaya for free to build and review. Opinions are 100% my own. I've built a few sets from Lumibricks (formerly FunWhole) in the past and they are really fun and interesting. The photo above is of the Izakaya and also The Apartment. they are both part of a Cyberpunk theme called Neoncity. At this time there are also two additional buildings that you can build and add to this whole theme, the Game Stack and the Floating Train Station. The great things about these sets is that they light up. As you build you are also adding lights and wires and ways to illuminate the amazing build. Once you're done building you fire up some power and the lights blaze up. With Neoncity sets you get some incredible Nenon effects light signs and even neon tube lights. That is one of the coolest things about these sets is how the lights are incorporated into the build. Some very innovative bricks were made in order to thread the wiring...

2025 Family Ornament ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02515 We put our tree up the other day and I had already bought the 2025 Hallmark Keepsake ornament for our yearly family photo ornament. I love these ornaments on the tree. We have them from 2005 to now.

Christmas Tree Is Up ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02510 Yesterday we put up the trees and today we decided to decorate the tree after dinner. Our tree is now mostly our family photo ornaments. We have a bunch of ornaments but with over 20 years of family photo ornaments it look like the predominant ornament type that we'll see. We did get a 2025 Hallmark one as well and I have to select this year's photo.
