I haven't been doing much other than working.

These guys are killing me but I will get a break soon next month when I get my shoulder surgery.

Then I will be playing PS2 and drinking beers with my brother-in-law all day long

I tend to post a lot more often on this site when the weather is bad.

Not much to do outside, other than clearing snow. So I sit in front of the computer in my spare time.

Typically I tend to work more this time of year as well, but this particular year has been different. I actually put in more hours over the summer....which I hate to do. But that was mostly due to a facility relocation in July.

But the thing I do most this time of year.....is wish for spring to get here ASAP!!

It's too cold for me to work on a car in a garage. My hands get cold, I drop bolts and wrenches - efficiency is down Big Time !

So, I'm basicaly watching some netflix movies, chilling at home with my wife.
To keep myself from getting fat, I participate in Basketball / Volleyball league, here at work (I work for Baxter Healthcare- big pharma company, so a lot of people = more teams to compete with)
