A whole week into stage -1

Yep yep, stage -1 is the forever stage, I know I know, but hey it takes time because it is honest preparation time, easily confused with cowarding time, or the "procrastinator hour" the how long is a piece of string? blah blah... and yet the love for it is still there. Also I dont see any other way out and that is a great way to feel when you are against the wall and found that you carry a jet pack.
SO very busy and a bit worry as usual. there is a lot of maintanence work that pays the bills and very little room for the creative or the entrepreneurial Jack.
SO... I have a clear picture of the next few stages, but like in any launch preparation is key, there is a lot of work that I am doing that doesnt even measure in the "progress scale" and yet are very significant and time consuming.
We are living at the tune of STNG, back watching it 4 eps each week and it is a soothing activity, all is better in outer space.
Today was very cold for going downhill I could feel the pain in my ears and my fingers numbed from the chilled winds and yet very very pleasant, 5 hours on the bike and I crave for more. I would like to do more exploring. Today was the first time in over a month that the 3 of us did the trip and we are all proud of it. We had shepherd's pie for dinner and a variety of sweets for dessert.
