All dressed up for the WCU Presidential Gala at Longwood Gardens. https://www.instagram.com/p/CqPNFZ4uGMa/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Some assembly required. Finally unpacking the hand carved clock we bought in the BlackForest. https://www.instagram.com/p/CqK5pzcusYp/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It was like building a ship in a bottle; no room. But you get used to it when doing bathroom rehabs. Anyway, during and after pictures. Love Murphy beds. https://www.instagram.com/p/CqI9n7GuCbi/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The inspector couldn’t figure out why the stove top was not warming up. Looked underneath and found. None of the burners were connected. #whywontthiswork https://www.instagram.com/p/CpsNX6ROxPj/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Me knee deep in unpacking and unwrapping. There is soooo much bubble wrap. I might wrap myself up and run around the neighborhood bouncing off cars. https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpa61R-OUWc/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

All the hardwood floors are refinished, fuse electric box is upgraded to breaker, and U-Haul moving complete. Now to unpack and assemble. #justanothersaturday https://www.instagram.com/p/CpYSb5Gutvp/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I hate it when the contractor doesn’t install unions in the piping to the water heater. I also prefer flex pipe but this copper looks pretty. #justanotherproject https://www.instagram.com/p/CpSbjLnu6wA/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Found some pitted copper lines that I’m replacing today. Funny how it’s only on the hot water lines. https://www.instagram.com/p/CpIc7hfuwww/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Testing out the wifi today. Had Verizon for years but they wanted an installation fee. Went with self-installed Xfinity. Download speed (600) was good but upload sucks (about 24). I think this might be a problem when video conferencing. Thoughts? https://www.instagram.com/p/CpIZO26Ozt-/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Check out all the chandeliers in our new house. First picture is the bathroom chandelier, the next is the entryway chandelier, the next is the dining room chandelier, and the last we finish off with the sunroom chandelier. Of course, everyone needs a chandelier in their bathroom https://www.instagram.com/p/CpIR7coOMyQ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Some ceiling pictures of our new place. We’ll be keeping these. https://www.instagram.com/p/CpF8t6Gu8sU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It’s official. Went to settlement on our new house in Drexel Hill. Realty One Group Restore working with us to find the best house for our needs. Thanks for going the extra mile. https://www.instagram.com/p/CpEE-MEOMlE/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Thanks for all the birthday wishes. We were off at an undisclosed location celebrating our birthdays (Micheline’s was the 19th). As you can see we had a great relaxing time. https://www.instagram.com/p/Co5GSJmukP7/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

My commute into work today. https://www.instagram.com/p/CoevxxAuO6Y/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

My shoes need a tire scrubber after walking the job site today. Just another day at work. https://www.instagram.com/p/CnMxecEOcDE/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Zwifters… How do I get my polar heart rate monitor to be picked up and recorded? Do I need to purchase another HR monitor? Along with the Tacx outputs I also attached a sensor for cadence and speed to record on my Garmin. This way keep a cumulative recording of inside and outdoor. Also is there a workout to test FTP whenever you want? Would like to test myself once a month and also make adjustments to program if needed. Thanks. BTW- pic is not of my legs…yet https://www.instagram.com/p/CnA0gNLuEjG/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Lesson learned, don’t shave when half asleep. I cut off half my mustache unintentionally by setting the razor to the wrong height. I know it will grow back but until then I’ll be walking around with 1/2 a mustache. https://www.instagram.com/p/ClJTyNiO2_G/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
