I’d probably do the same, when the time comes.

I’m probably the opposite, I hate working. I can just stay at home, cook, watch Netflix and basically do nothing. Haven’t tried it for more than 2 weeks though.

We used to do this every Sunday before sprogs. There’s a lot of value here.

lol had to google what a sprog is.

So you don’t do it anymore? What changed?

Sprogs changed. We work opposing days so when I’m not working, she does.

I get really antsy when I’m off from school and work too. When I have nothing for my mind to focus on it dives me nuts. My wife hates it since it normally means I’m in my own world when I’m on break.

Been browsing through the posts Mark, good to see your head hasn’t exploded yet.

Woke at 260.8 lbs, looking pretty similar. It’s got to be dehydration, which also explains the headache. I thought I drank plenty yesterday, but apparently not.

I have been dehydrated for the last three days, pretty much since my massage. No mater how much water I drink I still have a mouth like an Arabs sander !! Maybe coming down with something !

Hopefully not.

I think it’s just the heat and not being used to the volume of water I need to get through. Plus I did a bunch of painting out in the sun yesterday which probably contributed quite a bit.
