No rain in the weather report today.
Jun. 8th, 2021 10:19 pmWas another dry day here. Haven't had just a lot of those lately but it is a change of pace. Just as long as it doesn't last too long. We seem to have alternated between too wet and too dry. Looks like we are moving into one of those too dry stretches. Things do need to day out a bit. Need to check and see if the backyard has any mushrooms. Let's check in with the airport for tonight's temperature. And it is 84°F with 83% humidity. Not going to cool off much at all tonight. When I was in the shop doing just a few more things this evening it did feel and smell like rain. Kind of nice. Was off and on cloudy all day. Don't see anything until next week that looks anything like rain and hot temperatures. Was going to get that way sooner or later. So it will be here this week.
Didn't receive anything today but I did order a couple of more things. I needed to restore on some supplements so I order those and some connectors so I can replace a battery pack that needed a very odd two pin connector. Finally found them on eBay and ordered them. Again, eBay to the rescue. Not expecting anything in tomorrow.
I have restarted my daily incense burn. I think today it was cinnamon. Had stopped doing that for the longest time but just decided to restart that practice. I have so much incense I might as well use it. My incense is in front of my papyrus painting if Isis. Obtained on my trip back through Egypt so many years ago. I have two such paintings.
Finally got the estimate for fixing my front yard. Don't really know just what he is going to do but just have to trust he knows how to fix it. Need to get it done and the estimate was just about what I expected. Going to mail back the agreement tonight and let him get started. My front yard is really in need of some attention. Has deteriorated over the years. Hopefully the first and last time I will need to fix it.
No house work today although I intended to put up the dishes but didn't. Did pay a bill, my credit card bill. Going to have to declutter the house tomorrow. Getting covered up with my projects. Don't really want them to get out of hand and take over the house.
About the only project work was gathering some samples of Python code. Trying to get all of my code onto a jump drive. I also painted the base of my radio trial. Not much. I almost forgot that I built two new buss bars for my solar system and got those installed. Now I can use my 300 watt inverter on either battery system. Just a little more supply and I have the inverted and it wasn't doing anything. So put it back to use. Can't power just a lot outside of just lights.
Don't know if the mosquito guy ever came or not. Never saw a bill so I am guessing he didn't make it. Starting fogging my front door myself. Stuff I have had for ages but never use. Might as well try it.
Paid my credit card bill today. No paper copy.
For wood working today I finished the bottom of my chair. Got the side rails and the front and back rail in place. Did my first layout of the uprights but I think I can get two out of the same board if I change the point I started my layout. Will try again tomorrow. Painted the base of my radio project and glued up a blank to turn a light stand from. Going to be a really simple design. For the next time the power goes out. Not often but nice to have when it does happen.
Gold is almost back to $1900 an ounce but just below it. Crude is marching upwards and not sure why it is going up. Set a new 52 week high again today. Made a good come back from yesterday. See if it repeats again tomorrow.
Think I am going to release my HEB Delivery order tonight for a Thursday delivery. Still will have tomorrow to add and delete items if I need to.
June 17 for the next Falcon launch. Might be one I can watch sooner. Got to check.
Fozzy was a lap cat earlier today.
Don't have the shop sorted yet. Going out to mail the estimate back to my landscaper tonight.
My lawn company didn't come today. Maybe coming just every other week.
The International Gem and Jewelry show is this weekend. Usually go with Ling but haven't been in well over a year. Don't feel safe enough to go to this one. Maybe the next one.
Seem to be doing Okay today. Was depressed this morning but getting up and doing something always helps. Getting a little down tonight. Worrying about mosquitoes.
I think tomorrow is a truck start, run and drive day.
School is out of the summer.
Viewing pleasure today was NetFlix and YouTube videos.
Almost no radar returns in the entire state.
Need to sort out the shop. Think I will do that now.
Got that done. Didn't have as much out as I thought I did. Pretty quick to get things situated. I can fit the car in now.
Read both of Ashley's journal entries.
I think that is going to do it for tonight
