Severely nice day and rain free.
Apr. 26th, 2021 10:39 pmNothing even close to rain today. Was actually a very nice day. I think it might have been a bit warmer but Humidity I think was down. Right now my outside temperature gauge says it is 72°F with 86% humidity. And the official temperature and humidity is 72°F with 88% humidity. Looking at a good chance for rain on Thursday but the chances for rain on Friday and Saturday have pretty much disappeared. Does look like it is going to stay in the 70's for both Friday and Saturday but that looks like the end of them. Going to get warmer now. Temperatures forecast as high as 90. Going to end my shop time soon. Wasn't bad at all out there today. Spending way too much time in my shop but that will come to an end soon.
Was a numerous delivery day. I got my bedspread in from eBay and ordered some candy. So I will have two outstanding items on eBay. My resveratrol and my candy. My second shipment of LiFePO4 batteries came in today along with my gold backs. I order another 25 gold back today. Says it contains 1/40th of an ounce of gold. I also got my project panels in today. Still need my poplar to come in and my oak boards before I can finish my dresser. Hopefully get all that this week.
I think I am spending too much time in the shop. Need to finish my dresser though. I seem to become obsessed finishing a project once I start one. And this one has been expensive. Didn't have much in the way of material and had to order. I can understand why furniture is so expensive if they can't do any better on price than me. And my time is free. Don't know how much my dresser would cost even if I was getting minimum wage. Should be nice when I finish and probably finish this Saturday. Delayed by material.
Did catch the launch of the Delta 4 Heavy today. Fortunately it didn't launch at the start of its window. Came in for lunch and say that it hadn't launched yet. So I watched it and ate lunch. Interesting launch. Kind of looks like it sets itself on fire but just burning off excess hydrogen. Another Falcon 9 Star Link mission scheduled for the 28th. About 11:05 pm our time. Good time slot to watch it.
Nothing in the way of project work today and also didn't get any junk calls. Kind of odd to get a junk free call day on a weekday.
I am current running the dishwasher. Got it loaded tonight and cleaned the kitchen. Not much else. I am going to move my junior high artwork out of the laundry closet to a more prominent location. Haven't decided where yet. That was my housework.
For wood working I got the top and one of the end panels stained. Almost finished another drawer and started on two others. Got all the drawer fronts raised. Making some progress. At least there is less to do that when I started. Probably reach a point tomorrow that I can't do any more without the material I need.
No lap cat yet. No bills paid today. My lawn company didn't come today. I do hope they show up tomorrow.
Got the shop all sorted out and ready for my car. Don't think I am going out for a drive tonight. Just going to put up the car and go to bed. I am tired. Nothing unusual there. Spending a lot of time on my feet in the shop.
Still think about work and wonder how things are going. Thinking about all the things I don't have to do anymore. Now someone else's turn.
Really need to work on my HEB order tonight but don't really feel motivated to do it. Just about out of everything but I think I can get by for a few more days. Will do my best to get it done tomorrow and released for probably a thursday delivery. And chance the rain again.

Gold is still holding in the upper quarter of $1700 an ounce. Crude seems to be stuck in a narrow price range. Not moving much either up of down.
I think that is going to do it for tonight.
