Nice cool clear night. Perfect for opening the windows if I would actually do that. Going to warm up to the low 90's tomorrow. It is moving through spring so it is going to warm up.

I use to work in the shop until the first part of May. Seems like I can't do that anymore. Maybe it is the weather or maybe it is just me.

Rain forecasted for about the middle of next week. Going to be warm too.

I got my yard treated for pest yesterday. I am thinking about getting the mosquito treatment too.

Wasn't quite as lazy today. Actually ran laundry and did a load of shirts and hung them up. I also did some work on my electric bike. A process I call CAD or cardboard aided design. I just mock up everything in cardboard to see how it is going to look and fit. I am converting it to a three wheeler. Not exactly sure how to make that work. That is where the CAD comes in. Never built anything like it so I guess I really don't know what I am doing.

I am going to have to build it with just the material on hand. Not going any place inside to shop.

Did some checking on my stimulus check and finally found out I did qualify. I had to provide my banking information though. I know why because I owed last year so they didn't have my information on my taxes.

Still have work email. Everyone is working from home that I know about. Not much left of the old process group. At least four of us are LBO and not working.

It looks like crude has stopped its wild ride but has settled in at a very low price. I think I recall so many years ago that crude was just $2 a barrel but it was a long time ago.

I am watching more episodes of Moon Shiners. Got to find another series on NetFlix. I miss the Marvel comic book characters that were on NetFlix.

One lap cat today. Fozzy makes a sound that sure sounds like a sigh when he lays down in my lap.

I used to think I should go grow cactus in the desert.

Odd that silver is still relatively cheap. A long time ago it use to trade at 32 to 1 for gold.

I always watch Gold Rush. To think they move hundreds of tons of material to produce about 300 ounce of gold.

And that should be it for tonight.
Nice and warm today with a high of about 91°F. A little cooler tomorrow with no chance of rain until next week.

Got to put all my cardboard out to recycle but generally they don't come very early so I should have time tomorrow to do that. Next week it will be another load of plastic and cans to recycle.

Didn't do any more CAD work on my electric bike. Might work on that tomorrow. I do have half inch dowel road which I can use to take the place of the half inch long bolts I am going to use for the wheel shafts.

Found a decent NetFlix original movie. Christopher Hemsworth is the star. Body count getting close to John Wick.

Watched more episodes of Moon Shiners tonight. Still have a few to go and then I will start on Project Blue book.

Need to fix a few connection of my home made chiller. Found them too hot to touch so I need to redo them better.

Finally figure out my user name for the companies floor plan site. Very odd what it was. Don't know how that happened.

Got a curb side pick up on Monday. Got to decide what else I might need as you can add more items.

I used to live in Overland Park in Kansas and loved going to White Castle. Odd though that all the White Castles have left the area. Las Vegas does have a White Castles though.

The lap cat count for the day is one. Fozzy was the cat. Twist will stay forever. Fozzy will just decide kind of abruptly and leave.

I do miss being in England. Well, not at this moment but it was magical to live there. Really driving on the other side of the road wasn't that hard to do. I can still do a virtual visit of where I use to live in Fleet. Now that town has more than its share of American Fast food. It think my favorite Fish and Chips place is still there. I haven't found a place as good here in the US. They did have a Domino's.

Really need to start the truck and at least drive it around the block. Maybe tomorrow.

Well, that is it for tonight.
