Don't know if we got some rain early in the morning or not. There was some standing water in the gutter but don't know if that was due to any over night rain. So I don't know if we got any or not. I think there was a good chance today though. An odd forecast. Decent chance of scattered thundershowers tomorrow, nothing for the next two days and then chances for thundershower go back up for the remainder of the forecast. And it does look like some cooler temperatures too. But they have been changing. Going down now but they could go up. Looks like the 4th of July might be decent weather except for the chance of rain. Kind of warm outside at the moment. My gauge says it is about 85¯F outside with 77% humidity. And of course always have to check in at the airport to get the official temperature and compare it. The airport reports 83°F with 80% humidity. Radar shows almost nothing going on in this state.

Got a bunch of items in today. My inverter generator showed up on my porch this morning. Was not expecting that at all and especially so soon. Can't really tell who it is from. I know one was cancelled. So I ordered another one from a different supplier. That supplier shows it hasn't shipped yet. So I don't know if anther one is going to show up or not. Original order does show to be cancelled. So I don't know.

I got my power supplies in today for my breadboards and my specialty connectors too. Also got two items in from Home Depot but I haven't opened them so I am not sure what I got. According to my account I got both of my painters tape in along with my wood glue but my caulk was no longer available. Still have my bandsaw blades and my white boards to come in. I ordered some more JB Weld wood repair epoxy so I could drill and trap wood for my circuit boards. Seems I have been busier than I thought. I have seven items remaining on eBay. Based on tracking I should get my new soldering tip in tomorrow. Should be helpful for soldering IC sockets. Don't think my current tip is really ideal for that but I have used it in the past. Will give this one a try. So much stuff.

No lap cat today so far. I forgot to burn incense this morning. No bill paid today. Did put out my trash bin last night and it did get picked up. Have the trash bin in the drive way. Will move it to the back porch tomorrow. Still waiting on my landscape company to fix my yard. Don't know when they will do that. Might be really busy.

Still nothing about my car. Not at all sure about what I need to do to sell the car as far as getting the title transferred. Checked and it hasn't been inspected yet. Did drive out and look at the new Bolt EUV. Still a small car. Looks like the driver blind spot is not as bad. About as tall as I am and the interior doesn't look like it has the same plastic look as the bolt. Pretty sure I am going to buy one this time. Go through Costco if I can to buy it. Don't know about the tax credit.

For viewing pleasure today I watched just a bit of my Netflix movie, more of my Netflix series and more YouTube videos.

Did some kitchen duty for house work today. Don't think I did anything else.

I did cut some strips for a project today which should count as some wood working. Got my wheels on order so when they come in I found enough plywood to build my wheel wells.

For project work I used my new specialty connectors to finish my new battery pack for my deterrent. Works well and will be easy to replace the batteries with fresh ones and not have to worry so much about recharging the existing battery. That charger was a dumb one and would damage the batteries if I forgot and left them on charge too long. I starter my under counter emergency lights strip. Small but bright LED's. Got a small piece of white board to lay out my Binary clock. Just have to figure out the programming for it in Python. Still need to start my lessons in TinkerCAD.

Car is out. Need to sort out the shop. Not going out for a drive tonight. Checked this morning and even though crude has gone up a good bit gas prices haven't gone up.

Gold is still in the $1700 an ounce range. Crude set another 52 week high I guess yesterday. Doesn't look like it did today.

Falcon 9 still set to go on the 25th. Only a couple of days away. Tomorrow is the full moon for June. Strawberry moon. Probably plenty full tonight. I will check when I go outside to put the car up.

Slept late today. Stayed up later than usual. Didn't have just a lot of ambition to do anything. Not really depressed though.

Need to finish my HEB Delivery order and release it. Still Okay on food though. Won't be close to empty for awhile yet. Kind of running really low on breakfast and lunch items though.

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