Playing Diablo 3 Reaper of souls.

Has the Aldi store chain found its way across the Atlantic yet? Originally German, it's a grocery store that's very popular in the UK now for its prices. From time-to-time there is 8-seed bread flour for sale, containing wheat, barley, rye, oat, maize, linseed, millet seed, and sunflower seed; and very good it is, too.

Yes, Aldi is in the US, and growing. A new one is being built near where I live. I have no experience with the chain, but I expect to after it opens, if for nothing other than curiosity. There is a large grocery across the street from this one, as well as a SuperWalMart in the next block, and another grocery chain not far away. It's going to be a very competitive market. The Houston, TX area has always been a cutthroat grocery market, and most large US chains have tried and failed here. But more competition is good for the customer, so I'm happy enough to see another chain give it a try.

I turn wrenches on my Jeep, I have enough money wrapped up in bicycles to buy a new car so I ride those. Knives have recently caught my fancy so I'm spending some time reading about them various steels and history. I go to the range once a month with a few guys from work for skeet and sporting clays.

The weekends are devoted to my wife an daughter since I'm gone all week and that generally means shopping with my wife on Saturdays and Skating or helping my daughter with her you tube videos on Sundays.

Basically I'm just an average guy.

I play roller derby. A recent game is here (last one before my most recent injury): https://vimeo.com/162584057

Spending time with family, making bbq's on the weekends, going to local breweries, various projects around the house. Right now Im building a loft-bed for my 3yr old daughter, with a slide and all, no-less.

Listen to the radio, play games (mostly retro), listen to music (most genres).

Not much and sometimes that's a concern as I recently lost my Wife and Best Friend.
I should get out of the freakin' house, but I needed to do so before Wanda passed.

I am a typical Linux geek. Isolated and I don't play well with others.
I have few Social skills but I do enjoy being sociable when I am out, on occasion.

This too shall pass.
I could use a Vacation after near 6 years of keyboard jockeying.

Sorry to hear about your wife

At least you're not in an alcohol induced stupor like I would if my wife passed

Thanks Chris.

My sympathies to those of you who have recently been bereaved by the deaths of close family members or friends. These words were passed on to me by a friend who had heard them at a funeral.

I used to work in merchandising, loading pallets, washing commercial vehicles, watering plants, welding, automotive mechanics...

Outside of work and computers, I really like fishing at the beach. The tools are kind of at a weird point in being both primitive and highly sophisticated from certain perspectives (I bet the tech for making my fish hooks is worth billions of dollars, and yet it's just a piece of metal I tie to the end of some also incredibly advanced plastic fishing line). It can be challenging: some days the weather or stuff in the water is just out to test your patience, other times just catching the fish really takes your best effort. It's also far away from computers and everything else - even my phone gets set into a ziplock bag and I couldn't hear it over the waves if it rang anyway.

I used to like gardening, but because of the water shortages here all of the gophers went straight for the residential areas from the fields and now planting anything is just foolish. Someday I'll get the up the nerve to rebuild my garden box to have a real bottom and then I could continue, but who knows when that will be.
