Spring? Was that spring?
Apr. 7th, 2014 02:43 pmIt was a very pleasant weekend. Saturday was a warm sunny day and while Janna was putting Nora down for a hopeful afternoon nap, I went outside and brought Lemon Squeezy back to life. She, somewhat surprisingly, started up without too much trouble. I had to crank a little, but because I was giving her a bit too much gas. Took her out for a nice half hour or so ride that hopefully made a dent and recharging the battery from its long winter rest.
Made BBQ ribs for dinner. They came out great, but our grill is an utter disaster. Right now, I'm mulling a super cheap one for a hundred bucks, a replacement which would be a good but disposable grill in the 250ish range, and then I'm contemplating just biting the bullet and getting spendy on a Weber that'll lost forever and have spare parts and all that crap. Given that we don't seem to be moving anytime soon and that we grill all year round, we're learning towards spending the money on a high end grill.
Sunday, we went to the playground. There's nothing for realizing exactly how much Nora has grown than seeing all the stuff she can do at the playground that was too tall or high or whatever for her the fall before. She had a great time and Janna had her back there again today.
Other than that, I beat-read a new book for someone which was interesting. Hopefully my input is useful, she seemed to think it was. Great book. That didn't do a lot for my writing productivity though. I'm trying to do a 40k novella as part of Camp Nano. We'll see as I'm way behind. I'm not sure the book will come out at more than 30k though and as long as I finish the thing I'll be happy. It'll be my first foray into romance, albeit erotic romance.
