Gratitude for snowblowers…

The PolyBlog
January 4 2015

Gratitude post for day #4…Today I had planned to get up a bit late, drive the cub and wife to swimming and go on to grocery shopping. Unfortunately, I completely forgot about having to clear the driveway this morning. Brutal ice and snow, but not yet frozen, so I’m grateful for that at least. However, mostly I was grateful for the snowblower I was using. I bought it about five years ago at the old house where I had a huge driveway and walkway. I could easily get rid of it with the small area I have now, but honestly, it makes life so much easier that I’m reluctant to part with it. I’d love not to have to worry about space for it, but a couple of times a year it is worth its weight in gold. Today was one of those days.

That’s my single item for today! Onward in the journey…

  • More workplanning on my new Calibre libraryMarch 28, 2026
    I wrote earlier this week (Using Calibre to embrace my inner librarian for ebooks) about the Poly Library 3.0, and when I did, I thought I had most of my “work” done. I had decided on three main areas (the book profile, user engagement, and user tools), although, truth be told, I had four categories … Continue reading →
  • An update on Jacob…March 24, 2026
    For those of you who don’t know, as I didn’t blog about this much before, Jacob decided to have surgery on his legs this year, which he did at the end of February. I’ve held off posting anything as I didn’t want to ask Jacob what he was comfortable with me sharing, but today was … Continue reading →
  • Using Calibre to embrace my inner librarian for ebooksMarch 23, 2026
    I have used Calibre literally for years to manage all my ebooks. It started way back when Kindle was doing a huge business of people pushing freebies of their ebooks. Some good, some slush, all free. But it meant a LOT of ebooks to manage. So I tried a couple of programs, most of which … Continue reading →
  • What would you put in a personal health dashboard / framework?March 8, 2026
    I started this year with a few short plans to work on health factors in my life. Some of it was prescribed; I needed a physical exam for certain pension forms. Others were ones that I was trying to do some proactive work on, like my teeth and my feet. And still others were more … Continue reading →
  • Book clubs 2026-03: Options for MarchMarch 8, 2026
    February wasn’t as productive as I had hoped, at least not for my “bookclub reading”. I had 28 from book clubs below as potential reads, but my Christmas present hangover reads occupied most of my attention, plus some non-reading projects. Oh, and life itself, I guess. I read This Book Made Me Think of You … Continue reading →
