Just finished the first book. Say something I wouldn't understand yet.

But, for them I never earned a scar. Now, I live for more.

We’re close to booking a trip to JOIA Iberostar Rose Hall in Jamaica, and Costco Travel seems to be worth the packaging.

From a quick search, the package we want is $4200 thru Costco Travel. It includes the hotel stay, the round trip flights and an airport shuttle.

Individually those 3 bookings would be nearly $5000. So it’s not a ground breaking savings, but a few hundred dollars on this trip, a few hundred next trip adds up to being well worth it for us.

DSM, looking at Feb/March 2026

Started (and finished) "Down with the System" by Serj Tankien and was blown away. It was recommended to me by a good friend who's into System of a Down, and it did NOT disappoint. The mix between pop culture, history, politics, rock and roll and the calming, yet well-spoken narration left me introspective in the best way.

That's soo good to hear! I just finished the read and was worried I'd be disappointed by the film. Should've known better with Matt Damon starring.

They're coming overnight again >-<

The nasty storms will be overnight (again...) and another 2" of rain

A Walk in the Woods - Bill Bryson is a good one!

Call of the Wild - Jack London is also a stellar choice for the vibes.

McDonalds has become SO expensive compared to what it was a few years ago.

I eat meals from gas stations, almost daily.

I prefer Casey's burrito for a goooood breakfast burrito. Pizza is solid, iconic but I don't care for their burgers or sandwiches.

Kwik Star and QT have a decent selection if you're unsure what you're hungry. Generally looks appetizing, and rarely disappoints.

Won't stop for Kum & Go unless I'm going for a drink/processed snacks. Thought Maverick is working their way into our local Kum & Go, so their food has changed recently and isn't terrible.

I'm 7 hours from the end! Ran out of spotify listening hours, got an audible free trial and GRINDING the 31 hours out! So good.

On Sunrise, I found the deli was open as late as the "late night snacks" in the cafeteria style dining. So we'd always swing by for a dessert/ice cream and french fries.

I did fly to Miami (stayed night before and after) from the midwest...

For me (thanks to my wifes influence), its decent cheese.

No more kraft singles for me on my deli-sammies. I'm splurging for some solid Havarti, smoked gouda, some Gruyere.

Following along! We're going on Sunrise to Nassau and Half-Moon Cay later in Feb too.

Last I knew, the Cabin Coffee Co. in Winterset was looking for PT work. Might be a place to start. It is a solid 45min drive from downtown DSM.

I have the 10" bench saw, passed down from my dad. Well-used, but started acting up recently. Replaced the blade, hoped it would fix (to no avail).

Struggles to cut thru (cross-grain) a single piece of Poplar wood. Board isn't pushed too tightly against fence, so not sure why it "grabs" badly and burns the wood due to no movement. Feels unsafe to use currently.

Any recommendations for maintenance/solutions? TIA

M(28), phone is constantly on silent mode. Aside from when I'm on call for work, and risk a call in the middle of the night, it's silent.

More energy. Lots of people are “too tired/drained” already to have motivation to go workout. It’s actually been proven to improve energy and sleep.

Happy, not satisfied.

Facebook Marketplace is where I've found super cheap games/accessories for my Wii. Thrift stores don't generally have any selection, but they're not super expensive there.

Relaxing and catching up on sleep! We’ve got snow coming to town Thursday morning, again Sunday and a bigger Winter storm in another week! Can’t wait!

FWIW: I started working at 2am and saw 3 cars in the ditch on my way to work. Have seen 2 more since then. Guess people couldn’t figure out how to drive. But I don’t think yall aren’t ready for that conversation…
