Today was just an severely pleasant day. Didn't get any rain and I don't think there was a cloud in the sky all day. Temperature was wonderful with just a light breeze. Sat outside on the tailgate of my truck and just took in the sunshine and gentle breeze. Just felt great to be in the sunshine and soak some up. Could have just laid there. I did stay for awhile. A real pleasure. But I did have other things I did want to do. The forecast calls for a good chance of rain tomorrow evening. But the temperature are going to stay pleasant for at least as far as the forecast goes out.

Didn't order anything from eBay today but I did get one order in. My felt for my proto type multisided box. Still working on it. I got the rest of my order from Costco today and got the other item I ordered from Walmart to complete one order but still have one more order to come it. Tracking says Monday. May have gotten my Turbo Tax CD in today. I haven't checked the mail yet. Have six items out yet on eBay Tracking says two should come in on Saturday and two on Monday. One has yet to ship and one is coming from China. So Maybe after Monday I will only have the item from China outstanding other than the one that has yet to ship. Thinking about ordering a hammer drill. Going to need that if I decide to install the transfer switch myself. I know I can do it. Just don't want to worry about getting other items to connect it and have to find an outdoor classified transfer switch that doesn't have more than I need. I only really want two circuits but six will be fine. Don't need ten and don't want to pay for that many.

Only did my usual kitchen duty today. That is put away the dirty dishes. I did unload the dryer and had every intention of sorting, folding and putting away my laundry but didn't.

No wood working at all today.

For project work I rearranged the wiring to my entertainment center. I think I have a bad switch in part of it and need to change that out. I also finished building one buss bar for my battery stack. Fixed a plug to one of my fun projects using a battery tower. Doesn't really sound like much but somehow it took up the entire day.

Need to keep searching for my transfer switch.

Watched the last episode in the Flash series today for viewing pleasure. Started with the new Netflix series Cobra Kai. Watched the first episode of it. The Flash is supposed to be continued. Don't know when. Also added in several YouTube Video. Missed the live launch of Falcon 9 today but did watch the replay. Went flawless and landed the booster again. Maybe again on the 7th at a more awake time of about 9:30 in the morning get to try again to watch a live launch. Did watch the Every Day Astronaut channel to see the rapid unscheduled disassemble of Star Ship #10. Seems to happen a lot to them.

Gold fell into $1600 an ounce territory. Looks like it is continuing to drop. Crude moved back up and is trading close to its 52 week high again. Last time I was out gas prices hadn't changed.

Probably start another HEB delivery order soon. Like to start them early and just add to them bit by bit.

Going to check later tonight to see if it is going to be a premium channel free preview weekend.

Paid my credit card bill today. Takes a bite. Still looking for my pay. Never really know with it is going to show up. Always does though. Sometimes early. Sometimes late.

Text Gary.

No junk calls today. Don't remember any but just kind of blow them off. I final did do the press 1 thing to be put on their do not call list for one junk caller. Don't know if it will actually work.

Got to straighten up the shop. Car is out.

Tomorrow is cheese sandwich day. Bought a scratch made loaf from HEB that I guess they bake. Going to see if it makes a good cheese sandwich. Actually all that I have. I don't think my cinnamon toast would make a good cheese sandwich.

Finished listening to Ashley podcast and joined her Patreon at the $5 a month rate.

Going to pause and straighten up the shop.

Got the shop back in order. Took a short drive and put the car up. Checked the mail and I did get my Turbo Tax CD in today. One less thing outstanding.

Got a pretty much full recycle bin to go out tomorrow. Going to add some more cardboard to it. Plus going to put out a few items for the Scrap guy to see if he will pick them up. If not before bed time I will just bring them back in. So far he has picked up mostly everything. He didn't seem to like my project aluminum cars though. Didn't pick those up.

No trash bin though. Not near enough in it.

The Houston Museum of Natural science is having another auction. Quite unlike the previous ones. Nothing really affordable at all. Some very expensive item. Nothing I want that bad. Well, a lot of expensive items do have bids and I do see one item I think I would like to bid on. Would be really surprised if I win it but I think I will just give it a try. I did bid on an item. Don't think my minimum bid will win. Probably go up some on it. Not sure how much.

My outside temperature gauge shows about 54°F with 93% humidity. Officially it is 54°F with 94% humidity. Looks good.

I think that will do it for tonight.
