Nice, hope you have fun in the Big Apple. I myself haven't been down there in 10 years...used to work in the city. Sometime I'll take the train from Boston to NYC.

Alright guys new year new me!

PSCY! Haha fucking hate that shit.

Anyway I leave tomorrow to go back home. This week I’ll be starting some NPP at 400mg/week with 500mg test… ganna see if I can push 200 with this stuff. I Amy be over now after vacation. I been eating like a champ.

I should draw bloods first I’d like to know where my estrogen levels are after taking the aromasin daily at 12.5mg but I don’t got the cash. Vacation wiped me out so I’ll pull labs in 6 weeks and see what’s up

The anavar was nice. No real sides other than muscle cramps. Nothing crazy though. When I’m done it I will have ran it for 4 weeks.

Hell yah I’m all about it haha

 

[Halfi]

Well I reminded my back yesterday at work. 2 laborers were struggling to get a tree into my bucket that we had to plant so I got out to help and fucked it up again… sat in urgent car til 830 last night…

i take my shirt off for the doctor and she says “oh that’s bad” I was like that’s re assuring.. wtf does that mean lol.

Anyway she said it was a “severe” lumbar strain… no xray she said if it’s still bad in 4-6weeks I’ll do an mri I guess.

I’m working in slippers today because I couldn’t get my work boots on. I told my boss I’ll be in but I’m not touching anything but a machine

 

[Halfi]

Got my appetite back after vacation. I needed that unlimited food supply to kickstart me haha. 200lb fasted this morning. Still no gym. I got a follow up appointment Monday for my back. The soreness is gone now it just pops and sharp pain evertime I stand up. So I’m anticipating something a little more then muscle strain

[Halfi]

back is not getting better . It felt good when I wasn’t working but it’s back to being tight…

That being said I’m not ganna continue to rest it while work aggravates it so I’ll be back in the gym today. I’ll be damned if my backs ganna hurt from work. I don’t even care about work… that shits ganna hurt doing something I enjoy soooo back to the gym it is

I started running npp this morning. Ganna do 350mg/week NPP and 500mg/week test cyp… I’ll be pinning ED, 75mg test cyp and 50mg npp in the mornings
I’m taking aromasin every morning 12.5mg along with organ supports and cialis

Fasted weight this morning was 196. It’s crazy my weight was 206lb while I was off work… I go back and I drop to 196lb again. My body burns way to god damn much fuel

Ask the doc for pictures or cartoons. That might help overcome the listening thing.

Hope you feel better soon. The major snowfall missed us. We only got 8 inches or so of the 2 to 3 feet forecasted. Must have come your way instead! I do have a 50' pine that fell across our access road I have to go clean up. chainsaw, log it, load it, unload and split...In the old days, I'd blast a bourbon or two after. These days, it's a protein shake and some meat!

Nah we didn’t get much at all… just enough that we had to plow and salt… then turned to freezing rain so we had to continue to salt… huge cluster fuck lol I’m the only guy with the salt box on his truck so I typically first one in and last one out .

Hope you're getting the OT pay to help with the next cycle!!

Sadly I only made 4 hours over time were the only company in the world that pays there employees there regular hourly pay for snow removal. It’s retarded

Yeah, that's not fair. You run the risk of frostbite and getting hit by an idiot that can't drive in the snow. The pay should be higher for sure.

I lived in Massachusetts in the early to mid 90's. When it snowed 2 inches, the contractors were out, in a staggered formation clearing the road. They dropped sand from the beach removal stuff and the snow was gone fast! Back then, a guy with a pick up truck was at $65 an hour.

That’s what I mean most company’s are paying guys 50-70 an hour for this shit… I’m making 28 horse shit man. Fuck these people haha
