Since I didn't get any response when I asked if anyone was interested in trying WoW Forever, I am just going to post a couple codes here. Enjoy. Comment if you use one of them so other's know.

Today is day 7 of me eating high volume, low calorie meals. I have been doing 2 meals a day (breakfast and dinner) and have been pretty stuffed. Potatoes, Zucchini, Ground Turkey with taco seasoning, cottage cheese, some wraps, lots of egg whites. First 7 days, down 5 pounds!

For dinners I started with a bag of shredded lettuce, some taco meat, greek yogurt, some other veggies all mixed up. All that lettuce was tearing up my stomach so I switched it to a turkey taco burrito. Also doing one lg diced potato, one lg diced zucchini air fried. So good.

Since im back into WoW I thought I would share. I never owned these back in the day (I did own the Prima EQ ones though) but my Son found these for pennies at a garage sale. They are cool to go through though for a nice snapshot of the original game I loved so much. Fun read.

I received an order for FDG River tiles yesterday afternoon. I haven't done these in a while so I had to pull out some of my own for color references. These came out pretty nice. I average 3-4 orders per week and my turn around time is generally 1-2 days.

I lost 35 lbs since January by changing my diet, mostly portion sizes. I am upping it for the winter and switching to high volume, low calorie foods with good macros. This is how I lost all my weight 11 years ago. Macros below.

It had been a while since I picked up some new music so I swung by Soundgarden in Syracuse. 6 CDs, all in great condition for less than one Vinyl.

I laugh every time some Nvidia fanboy tries to justify spending thousands more for under 10% performance gains over Radeon 9070XTs. It's worse when you look at 5070Ti pricing since they are almost identical in performance, less in some cases than the 9070XT but double the price.

I will head off the replies here. Adrenaline isn't perfect but its nothing like Nvidia fans paint it. Running two 9070Xts and a 9060XT here with no issues. DDR, fresh install, enjoy.

So back to work on the shed. Bad weather stopped us for a week. A nice fall and some stitches stopped us for a couple days but last week we built the trusses, this week we got them up and the metal roofing on, and today got 3 sides done.

Fun fact, all of the boards for the siding came from the pine tree that fell in my yard about 7 years ago. Having a sawmill is convenient. =)

2x6/8/10 hemlock boards were free and that build the framing and base. Picked up 60 sheets of metal roofing last year off marketplace for $300. It was all new and we used 15 sheets for this, so $75. Siding is fee other than gas for the saw mill. Only cost so far is hardware.

After 23 years I have to say I am impressed with the new graphics and lighting updates. It looks better than retail WoW and runs like a champ with everything maxed.
