Jun. 21st, 2021

Just not a whole lot of rain. Just some mild sprinkles. Really just enough to flow through the gutters. Don't think I can really tell how much by my rain gauge but it was rain and will take what we can get to keep the ground watered. A decent chance of rain tomorrow and a much better one on Tuesday. Temperatures to be in the low 90's for the most part. And I forgot about my outside temperature gauge yesterday but today it is 82°F outside with 83% humidity. Now to compare with the official temperature at the airport which is 82°F with 82% humidity.

Nothing in today for deliveries. It is a rare Sunday that I do get something on Sunday but it does happen. Did order a mini drill chuck for my home made drill and a new small tip for my Weller soldering pencil. So two more items I am waiting on now. I am getting my three power supplies sent. They forgot to include them in my order. Did add to my HEB delivery order. Need to do more work on it. Items keep disappearing from it as it goes out of stock. If it comes back into stock they don't add it back in.

Maybe my landscaper will come tomorrow. He has the go ahead to fix my lawn.

Did a bit of kitchen duty for house work today. Straightened up my mad scientist table a bit more. Looking halfway organized now.

For woodworking I routed out the second half of the chair top rail. Just too hot out in the shop. Also started another light project. Used about my last piece of 3/4" medium density fiberboard. Really just need to buy some and go to curb pickup to get it. Wonder if I can do a curb pickup and a delivery order at the same time.

Just released my Home Depot order. Going to use curbside pickup. Will take the truck so just let them put it in the bed. Need to drive the truck anyway.

Started a new light project. Drilled some hard board to hold LED's and some fiber optic cable.

Finished the design of my tricycle front end. Think it will work. Don't have any wheels for it so kind of generic on that end.

For viewing pleasure today I watched some more of the premium channel free preview, my Netflix series and some YouTube videos.

Looking at the gold and crude trading for tonight gold is holding its own in about midway through $1700 an ounce. Crude has backed off its 52 week high but is easily in striking distance of setting another one.

Twist was a lap cat today. At my invitation. Accepted it and went to sleep.

No bills paid today. I think I burned vanilla incense today.

And no junk calls today.

Got some items out in the shop. Need to put those up before I can put the car up. Need to put it on charge too.

Today was the first day of summer. June 25th is the Next Falcon 9 launch. About 2:00 my time.

Text Gary.

Twist is in the chair.

Pause to put the car up.

Got that done and on charge.

I think that is going to do it for this entry
Not today although there was at least at one time a pretty decent chance of rain but we didn't get any. The radar showed plenty of scattered showers around but none of them happened to move over us. Looks like tomorrow has somewhat more than a decent chance of rain starting early in the morning and lasting pretty much all day. Looking at the temperatures for the rest of the forecast look a bit more moderate than they did but it is the weather and always changing. Not going to be as warm but that is relative. My outside temperature gauge shows a temperature of 84°F with 86% humidity. Now to compare with the airports official temperature of 83°F with 86% humidity. Could use some rain and hopefully I will get to do my rain on the skylight listening tomorrow. Says thundershowers.

I don't think anything came in today but I have been out to the mailbox. Tracking doesn't show anything but that isn't always the case. I did order one more thing today and that was some 4-40 round head machine screws. Use those to attach circuit boards. Thought I have plenty but today I could only find 5. Should have plenty on hand after this order gets here.

Did go pickup my curbside order at Home Depot. Forgot that my truck doesn't have Wi-Fi like my car does and my phone doesn't have a data plan. Just took the truck there just to test it out and it connected right away to a AT&T Hot Spot. Something like that. AT&T Passport. Anyway it connected and I was able to use the Home Depot App to let them know I was there and ready to pick up my order. Only took about five minutes for them to bring it out. Nice. About the only way to shop. Everything else in my order is going to be shipped.

Driving home from that I saw that the firework stands were set up. Almost forgot that the 4th of July is really just around the corner. In less that a couple of weeks. Sunday. Haven't done a show in a long time. Not going to do one this time. Maybe in January.

Doesn't seem like I did just a whole lot today but the day seems to have passed. I did some kitchen duty and cleaned up a counter top in the bathroom for house work. The only project work I did was to mount the circuit board for one of my fun light projects and mount a radio module for my radio project. Tested out my new 2" full range speakers. Ok but nothing special. Can't expect too much from them. They do work. So not much there either. No wood working at all. Really don't see why the day went by.

I did my truck start, run and drive which was really part of my curbside pickup at Home Depot. Haven't heard anymore about my Z. Going to check and see if it was inspected today. Checked and it hasn't been inspected yet. Going to let it set there until the inspection clear before bringing it home.

Thinking I got 4 junk calls today and one kind of annoying call. The car dealership can be annoying.

No lap cat today or bills paid. I burned Jasmine for incense today.

My viewing pleasure was more of the premium channel free preview weekend. Was going on today also but will probably end tonight. Also watched my Netflix series and more YouTube videos.

Didn't get out in the shop today so the car is already put up in the garage. Had it on charge and really need to put it back on charge tonight.

Somewhat depressed tonight. Just get that way. Still having the strangest dreams. Ones that are very frustrating and I don't want to be having.

Need to start my course in TinkerCAD. Maybe tomorrow.

Both cat slept with me last night. Rare event.

Cooked today. Worked some on my HEB delivery order. Added more items as I discover I need or want them. Should release for Friday delivery probably Wednesday night.

Text Gary.

Another Falcon 9 to be launched on the 25th. Just around the corner.

Generator hasn't shipped. Hoping this one doesn't get canceled. Still need to run my exiting one.

I think that is going to do it for this entry.
