May today is rain free.
May. 6th, 2021 10:25 pmNothing doing with rain today. Was a clear day. Had some clouds but was mostly sunny all day long. Not too bad outside but I only spent minimal time outside today. Didn't do any work in the shop at all. Didn't even back the car out of the garage so it is already put up. Was planning on turning another leg for my chair project but didn't. No real push on that at all. Still don't see anything very impressive as far as rain chance goes in the forecast. Temperatures are holding in the 80's which is warm enough. My outside temperature gauge says it is 73°F with 55% humidity. Just a quick check of the airport and it says the official temperature is 72°F with 77% humidity. Quite a bit more humid at the airport but they do have the bayou that runs just to the north of the airport. Don't really know it that has an impact or not.
Ordered two things today from eBay so starting to build my backlog of items again. I ordered two more Raspberry Pi 0 W's and some more micro servos that are 360°. My existing ones are only 180°. At least I think they are. Will have to test them and see. Any I did supposedly order some 360° ones. Had to order some new Pi 0's because the one I had was dead. Must have damaged it when I soldered the GPIO pins to it. Realized I didn't need to solder the entire thing to it but only the pins I need. If I am going to use it for my radio project I only need to solder four pins to it. Don't think I am going to get anything in tomorrow.
Didn't get anything in today. I am waiting on my Gold Backs, my 10 pack of oak and my new router bits from Rocklet. So I have a number of items outstanding.
For house work today I cleaned up and vacuumed the kitchen. I also ran the dishwasher but haven't put them up yet. I also vacuumed part of the living room. Not just a lot of housework.
Didn't do any king of woodworking today. Kind of really odd to pass on a day and not do any wood working. The days do seem to pass just the same though.
Kind of wonder what is going on at work. Really try not to think about it as much as I can. Just know that phase had its moments but it is basically behind me now and I just need to move on and find a life outside of work. Do kind of miss having people around and getting coffee. Probably drank too much. Met people like Gary and Pilar which I am very thankful for.
For project work today I finished my light sequencer. Meaning I got it wired and working. Still have a little left to do on the enclosure and work on the software and have fun with it but it is basically done. Just have to plan what I am going to do with it. Make my first Christmas decoration. Might have to start early. Don't have much room really to store anything so have to be careful with what I design. My Pi 0 W was dead so I didn't get to work on my radio project. Started to work on my servo project. Kind of have an art project in mind for it. Wonder what the life expectancy of those servos is.
Kevin took my old chest of drawers to put in his Mancave. Hopefully it gets put to good use. Didn't just want to throw it away. Was going to just let any random stranger have it if they wanted it.
Tonight is Thursday night meaning I have to check for a premium channel free preview weekend after midnight. Last weekend wasn't.
Tomorrow is Cheese sandwich day. Got more bread already included in my HEB delivery order.
Fozzy was my lap cat tonight. Was content and would have stayed a lot longer but I had to get up.
Gold moved back into $1800 an ounce. Don't know what is driving that. Crude held steady today. Didn't move much. Really not far from it 52 week high.
Probably not going to take the car out tonight since I never did get it out.
Didn't get paid today. Not that surprised. Never really know when it is going to happen.
May 9th now for the next Launch of the Falcon 9.
Henry from the bank called. Just to check. Nice to know he is still there.
Think I might just venture out to Best Buy tomorrow to recycle some batteries. Small steps.
The shredding was cancelled due to weather. Hasn't been rescheduled yet.
Viewing pleasure today was back to YouTube videos.
Not too tired tonight. Didn't sleep all that well last night.
Kind of got all my hand tools now in one place. Never happened before.
Don't know if I will put out a recycle bin tomorrow. Not really close to full.
May 6th. Days.
Did the truck start, run and drive today. Took Mary's wine over to here. Counts for my Truck. Added the rest of my generator fuel to the truck. Don't want it getting old.
I think that is going to do it for tonight.
