And more rain today.
It did rain today although it wasn't more than a shower. Doesn't look like much happening in the way of the 10 day forecast except hot.
Don't really understand the tropics at all. Possibly the third tropical storm forming and it isn't even hurricane season yet. Well, that is an artificial construct and a hurricane doesn't have to follow the rules as such. I will have to ask Gary why this is happening. From my web search the ones that should know are thinking this is going to be an above average hurricane season. I remember one year they ran out of names for the storms.
No participants in the lap cat division today. Kind of miss that.
Worked on cleaning up the kitchen today but didn't finish. Will try to finish that tomorrow. And need to run the dish washer too. Oh, yes and tomorrow is cheese sandwich day. I got a fresh loaf of whole wheat bread and some more butter. I was just about out of that and probably didn't have enough left to make a sandwich. Keeping the tradition alive. Was good for memories.
Yes, I got my curbside delivery today. Had to hurry to get all the frozen food inside and into the refrigerator. Just the best way to shop for groceries. I got some green tea bags so I can start having my afternoon tea break again.
My order of incense sticks came in today. Burned one of the Vanilla flavored one. Not Gonesh but still good.
I moved my raspberry pi to its own monitor. I had an extra one. Got it all up to date. And I want to play with it for a few projects I have in mind.
I tried and failed to install some new software in my Linux machine. I am pretty sure I know what I did wrong so I will try again tomorrow. Not as easy to install new software as a Windows machine. But probably makes for a more secure operating system. Really Linux is a good operating system.
Got a delivery for Mary at my home today. She tends to send UPS items here due to the logistics of their home.
My silver coins also made it here today. Very nice. Two walking liberty coins and a Canadian Maple leaf. Probably would have bought a gold coin too but gold is just to high at the moment. And crude seems to be holding where it is at. I always check gold and crude price.
Played some with the new set of speakers that I built. I think I am going to connect them to my blue tooth module.
My next Netflix movie should be in tomorrow. They are generally good about saying when it will get here. So if no free premium channel preview I will have a movie to watch.
Saturday is hopefully going to be the launch of The Falcon 9. And if not Saturday I think they have another chance on Sunday. Gary says the weather is not looking good for either day. Just like Houston it gets a lot of rain in the afternoon. Going to be exciting to watch. I wonder how much liquid oxygen cost. The rocket must just vent a ton of it as it is being fueled. And then they use a refined kerosene for the propellant. I know how much I pay for K-1 grade (1-K?). I hope buying it in bulk reduces the cost. Not particularly cheap. I use it in all my lanterns. But I generally buy it in the 2 and half gallon size and it last a good long time. Depends on the winter because I sometimes use my Aladdin lamp to heat my office.
Went to the post office tonight to mail some letters. One to my lawn service. Can't really pay them on line.
Got to remember to mail my Taxes too. I guess I still have a little bit of time left to do that.
Christmas lights might be nice to put up this year. I have never done that. Might actually be nice to do now. I would have to finish my sequencer and it is probably just to hot anyway.
That should do it for tonight.
