home and office life-juice absorbed... ☕

office, dull... and we're playing it slow...
Nah, not 45 on 33 slow... 45 on 16... 🤫
Want a regular work-pace? Insert coin first... :cautious:

Not sure why the coffee thread isn't showing in NEW anymore, and only when I go to the forum groups...

Maybe it's the "..." in the title??

Anywho, good morning all! Thanks Martin for getting us started.

4C for the ride into work under a sunny sky. It'll cloud over but pop up to 12C later on.

Lots to do. These half days are brutal. Can't seem to get anything done, but in a different way than when you can get stuff done but have all day.

Hope everyone has a good one!

Obo.
 
Good morning everyone

Danke fur ze kaffe, Martin.

For whatever reason I bypassed the "New Posts" feature this morning and navigated straight to this sub-forum. Guess I'll have to keep an eye peeled to see what you're referring to.

Anyhow... it's sunny, lightly breezy (the treetops are swaying and some of our motion-activated outdoor lights came on several times overnight), and 57°F in Rockville. Partly sunny with a high of 71 and continued breezy are the expectations the Windows weather app is broadcasting for the day.

I've got a routine dental cleaning scheduled for mid-morning, and am thinking it's an opportunity to use a bicycle for transportation in place of a dino-fueled vehicle. By using my mountain bike I can open up access to routes I wouldn't travel on a road bike. I'll have to look at my route planning app and see which way I want to go.

Stay safe and well everyone and tell your dear ones you love them. Do it today, NOW, for tomorrow may be too late.
 
Good morning, everyone. Thanks for the cup, Martin. I still don’t know why Coffee isn’t called Vitamin C.

58/78, and nothing but clear, sunny skies. Can’t complain…well there is the extreme drought, but we’ll worry about that later.

Headed out to pick up some groceries for the FerrySToc weekend. I may even give the dog a bath, since he’ll be mingling with our old longtime friends.

John
 
Thanks Martin, for the coffee. The meme is appropriate.
@Obo this post showed up in New Posts for me as always, today. I'm not rubbing it in, because obviously it's "just you." But ADVrider does that to me quite often, on one of my Watched threads by a writer / photographer in West By God Virginia, calling herself Pillion Viewpoint.
Great photos and short storytelling (not short like me), and a sharp wit. Very cool, she only rides on the back, and she's very entertaining as she documents her husband's and her trips through the nice curvy backroads.
Safe miles, Brian. Wave if you drive through Bamaland.
John -- I always refer to my coffee as Vitamin C.
I'll run along now and prepare for another full day at work.
Roz surprised me at work yesterday with a piece of coconut cake and my favorite ice cream, a mylar balloon and a card.
Thanks to all for the birthday wishes, I'll post over on that thread too.
Just another trip around our big hot star, but I'm glad to have done it.
Maybe I'll make it around once more.
Hope you do too.
Have a good rest of the rotation on our rock's axis.
Don't know why I went all astronomical this morning, but some things just can't be explained.
 
Sorry... I forgot to share the birthday card that Kaiser gave me.
