I incorporate a little exercise into my workday. 

I am surrounded by somewhat heavy things that are easy to move around at all times. Might as well put 'em to use. Curls, bench press, chin ups... you just gotta get creative.

I try to do some walking around the office as the Fitbit demands. No lifting. There’s something I dislike about being sweaty at work.

Beautiful sunny day here, but was 23°F when I got up.  I think this is the coldest we've been all winter.  When it's this cold here it's nearly always clear (radiative cooling).  Snow only happens on those fairly rare occasions where the Gulf sends up moisture and some cold front crashes through, and it doesn't last long.

We should be good to go in a week or so.  All those blooms I saw last week are getting hammered.  The wife has a camelia in a pot that is blooming but hey seem able to survive the cold and bloom in winter.

Weather Channel showed a National Map on Winter Temps.Ohio was blue as it was 15-25 deg under normal for this winter.Surprisingly we are like 3 feet behind in snow accumulation in N.E.Ohio.I could deal with these winters from here on out

Looking like another foot of snow here in MSP this weekend. And unlike everything we've gotten this winter, this is going to be the heavy, wet slop that will kill you if you try to shovel it.

The wife had to go up to the French Consulate today, and after we had lunch and went to see this:

https://www.atlantamagazine.com/great-reads/redeeming-the-cyclorama-why-the-century-old-attraction-is-anything-but-a-monument-to-the-confederacy/

It's now open and fully restored in its new digs in Buckhead.  It's impressive.  The history of the painting is entertaining.  It used to be the largest oil painting in the world.  I last saw it 25 years ago.  The painting weighs 10,000 pounds.  It was being ruined in the old building in Grant Park.  The battle site is about 3 miles south of where we live now.  Today of course it's solid city with a MARTA line running through the middle of it.

https://www.motortrend.com/cars/chevrolet/camaro/2019/2019-chevrolet-camaro-ss-first-test-review/?sm_id=organic_fb_MT_trueanthem&utm_campaign&utm_content=5c81daec3ed3f00001b27ec5&utm_medium&utm_source&fbclid=IwAR3WU_TuAK5HN58BwijUN9cTBISvpgpvv9uabCi9Dd6xr71hP1NwV6fUbP4

The first Camaro had a 2 speed automatic transmission (Called "Powerglide").  The latest has a 10 speed (the manual is 6 speeds).  If ten speeds the max for a passenger car?  And this is mated to an engine with a ton of torque available at just about any RPM.  Is that overkill?  I bought a car in 2005 that had a 5 speed auto and I though that was overkill at the time.

If you've ever sat in a modern Camaro, you know it ls like sitting in a bunker.  We rent a convertible at times on trips but I look for the Mustang, even though the 4 cylinder turbo in that car is unimpressive to me.  It also has a 10 speed in it.  The Mustang has better visibility with the top up and more room in the trunk and backseat.

Good call on the bunker like camaro.  I was given one w/o asking as a rental, back when we only had one child, and it was an absolute no go.  The Avis dude couldn't help but blush when I came around to pick up my wife and infant.

The designers wanted a low roof to look cool on the outside, but inside it's just about a nonstarter for me.  When the wife wanted a convertible it was on my short list, but I was going for the BMW 2 series instead.  Then she said a nice sun roof would be fine, and that saved me some change getting the GTI, which she likes a lot, and it is a very practical car for space.

Right now my i s c & a aggie wife is looking to move on from her Toyota Solara convertible, to a BMW 4-series with the retractable hard top.  She still loves a convertible, but the road noise from the ragtop is starting to annoy her and the retractable hard tops are somewhat quieter.

I'm trying to convince her to go with a convertible Mustang but I'm not sure I'm having much success.  She actually likes it a lot, but after having test-driven both a few times, she's definitely liking the interior styling and trim better on the BMW.  Shocking I know.
