Day is over and no rain.
Feb. 8th, 2021 07:27 pmWas another day in the weather of this place. We didn't get any rain and it was a rather pleasant day. Going to stay that way for a few more days and then a major cold front is going to move through here and really drop the low temperatures. A few below freezing. Hopefully not staying below freezing for too long. Tomorrow is going to be a very nice day but it looks like the rain is going to start on Wednesday with more rain on Thursday and then the temperatures stop to drop. Looks like multiple days of cold weather come this way. Followed though by a nice warmup. Was hoping the moderate weather would stay but it looks like we are in for a bit of a cold snap. The first really cold weather we have had this year. Should make it through by being careful.
Today was an eBay day in the delivery category. We got two items in. That leaves just one more item outstanding on eBay. Not sure when that is going to get it because it might be coming from Germany. So might take just a bit longer. Don't have anything at them moment I plan to order or want. My cabinet hardware is being shipped but don't really know when that will get here. I still have the one long delivery item from Rockler but that probably won't even ship until sometime in March so no expecting it anytime soon. Plus my MaxBright Aladdin is still out there. Don't know anything about it. Just have to wait until it shows up.
I do have several bill that are automatically paid so I don't know if I should include them or not as bills paid. Like my Netflix bill and my Ooma bill. Automatically paid from my PayPal account. Probably won't mention them.
For woodworking pretty much finished my cabinet. I opened the packages with the doors and they are just beautiful and so well done. Was well worth it to have them professionally built. If I have another project that needs doors that is what I am going to do. Don't have the hardware to put the doors on but I have everything stained and the drawers fully installed. I put the bottom in today but didn't fill the screw holes. I have yet to install the back. Did some more work on my battery module storage. Might have to redo it. Not the best of plywood to start from. Also made a hexagon box on my table saw. Was just playing around and used some of the wood left over from making the drawers on my cabinet. Not much over two inches is about as tall of a box that I can build on my table saw in a single pass due to the limitation of my blade height.
Nothing in the way of project work though. I think I am going to stop working in the shop so much as I think I have just kind of burned out on spending so much time out there. With the stretch of cold weather coming it is probably time to do some project work indoors.
House work today just consisted of doing a load of T-shirts and putting up the dishes from the dishwasher. I put up the rest of my HEB order and moved my shirts from the washer dryer closet to my closet. Not just a lot of house work.
Gold and crude did trade today. Gold moved up back close to the midrange of $1800 an ounce. Crude is continuing its march upwards. Today setting another 52 week high which really means it set another recent high since the price dropped so much. Have to check gas station prices again. I have already put the car up tonight since I sorted the shop early so I won't check them tonight.
Started watching the Flash again for viewing pleasure tonight along with an assortment of YouTube Videos.
Still the next scheduled launch of the Falcon 9 is the 12th. Might be one sooner but no date has been set for it.
Got my new Dietz lamp in and it is just enormous. I wasn't expecting it to be that big. It really dwarfs my first Dietz. Hold a lot of kerosene too. Did light it but only to test it. Still waiting on a part for my other Dietz like lamp.
Tried out my tent poles last night and found they were just a bit too short. Not as tall as it use to be but I think I can live with it that way. I measured the old ones and ordered this as close as I could to the length of the old ones. But alas a little short.
No lap cat tonight. Not sure where Fozzy is. Might make it later.
Neighbors across the street are moving. Been loading up for a few days now. Went to check what they had stacked at the curb. Nothing that I wanted. The scrap guy might find something. Still got to go get the mail tonight. Went through my mail tonight and sorted through it. Got my insurance bills in. Next to my property tax bills they are the highest. Home owners insurance has really gone up. I guess my house value has gone up a lot too. Got to have it though.
My outside temperature gauge says 64°F with 94% humidity. Officially 64°F with 93% humidity. I did spend some time out in the tent tonight doing a bit of deep listening. Felt a bit warm inside it the tent. Kind of guessed it might have been from the heavy dew condensing on the Tent. We did get a fairly heavy dew.
Checked the mail and didn't get any today. Still waiting on my brokerage statement from Chase.
I think I am going to put my trash bin out tomorrow. Probably a load of plastics for recycle this Saturday.
I think that is going to do it for tonight.
