It's spring. The motorcyclists know why I care.
45 and reasonable for a certain type of crazy here in NJ today. I have a friend who ..... liberates trade ins that are not cruisers from his Harley dealership. He gets excellent prices for them.
Apparently if you bought a CBR1000 and all your friends at the office think HD's are where it's at you may very well take 800$ in cash on a trade in to get your "hog".
I have put this man to work.
I will be back out at the new house in a day or so. Back in Jerzey today retreating from the cold weather for a bit. Next week is in the mid 40's and low 50's straight through. Perfect.
Perfect enough anyway.
I have a new to me laptop. A friend of my wifes needed some software installed on her new Mac. She asked me if I knew where to get it... uh.. yeah, I kind of do. As thanks she asked me if I wanted her old MacBook. It's the model that came out a few years after my iBook, the last machine I purchased new.
It feels strangely comfortable and normal to me. It also fits into my old Acme bag.

I am comfortable with this.
As far as the house goes..
The kitchen is planned. This matters. It's an annoyingly complicated issue and we are done. I am finishing up wiring and hanging rock now. Easy stuff. Normal to me.
The weather will cooperate from here on out.
