Beer Drinkers Appreciation Society (BDAS) 2023 Mentor Group - ALWAYS OPEN (Page 155)

Hi all! Sorry I wasn't checking in much! Just lounging around so not too much to report, and was avoiding my computer. I had work stress dreams for the first few days of my leave but they finally subsided and I've been getting really good rest. Started working a little bit last week, and doing more today.

Saw Hamilton on Saturday, they were in Hershey, and it was amaaaazing, though the hardest thing right now is sitting upright, so I was REALLY sore afterwards. The Hershey Theater is so old and the seats are incredibly uncomfortable for a perfectly healthy person, so it was a little rough.

Glad Gretchen made it safely to Egypt, Mike had a successful Turkey Trot, and Fit Nat has made a triumphant return! Andrew, happy anniversary and way to get some runs in while you were away!

Oh, I ordered a walking pad in preparation for winter! Though getting outside is always preferred, I figured a walking pad will help me get my steps in when it's too cold or rainy. I might buy one for work as well but haven't decided yet. My office has a lot of stuff in it already so have to see how easily this can be moved out of the way.

Iiiiiiiiii’mmmmmmmmmmmmm back!

Did you feel the ripple in the force?!?

Merry Christmas to all! I hope that new bike is under everyone’s tree this year!!

Would you like a fresh thread for 2025?
I can archive this one and create a new one.

Great, thanks Mike. It looks like I skipped a step - I'll need to you create a new thread in the Staging Forum, per these instructions. Then I'll go ahead and make that one live and archive this one.
Thanks!
