Hey, so…long time, no write. I think that may have something to do with me being tired on Friday nights, busy (although not really accomplishing much) on Saturday nights and having the better part of a migraine on Sunday nights over the couple of weeks.
However, other than wishing it was Saturday night instead of Sunday night and that Ross Chastain could have caught Kyle Larson to win the Nashville Cup race, I don’t feel too bad tonight.
Of course, it was another weekend where I got almost nothing accomplished but I decided, as I went to bed last night, that I was going to be okay with that. I mean, it’s not like I didn’t do anything, I just barely touched my infamous “To Do” list.
Instead, for the third week in a row, my folks and I went to some yard sales in Ingersoll. The first week was the best, as I found a couple of Dale Earnhardt artwork pieces. I wasn’t as successful in finding anything the following two weeks. (This past weekend was the Ingersoll Townwide Yard Sale.) However, part of the fun of going to yard sales is showing up and just seeing what they have to offer. (I will say I’ve always considered writing a blog post about yard sales so it might become a podcast.)
With the lifting of some of the COVID-19 precautions, my sister and nephew came down last weekend. (I think part of it was just so Jack could gloat he was taller than Nana.) I was heartbroken to learn that my dreams of playing for the Canadian Olympic Badminton team were not to be because, like every other sport, I suck at it. But again it was just fun to play.
I need to get back to work on my podcast and John Milner’s Track Talk as I have been putting them aside in favour of other tasks, and sometimes just not having the energy to produce content. I have enough content for at least two podcasts, just in conversation with my friend Lyz. I just have to edit them.
Meanwhile, I have been posting some old wrestling reviews to the site, as well as a couple of history articles, so check them out.
Meanwhile, I hope everyone is doing well. Feel free to drop me a line at milner@johnmilner.ca to say Hi!
