Just as much rain as yesterday. None.
Jul. 2nd, 2021 10:17 pmTomorrow looks like it is going to be just a bit different though. A really decent chance of rain tomorrow. Didn't get any today and it was a rather hot day too. And the following day. That will be on the 4th. Might ruin a few picnics. Don't think I am going to go to the BBQ on Sunday. Just to nervous about going. Now a hurricane on the way but projected to lose strength and become a tropical storm. Still warm tonight too. Looking at 85°F on my outside temperature gauge with 79% humidity. Didn't get out in the shop today at all. Thought I would just work on my mad scientist table and do some code work. The official temperature at the airport says it is 83°F with 82% humidity. Still looking at quite a string of moderate temperature yet to come. Going to be not as hot as it usually is this time of year.
Feeling a bit more depressed tonight. Sometimes it is more and sometimes it is less. Just happens to be one of those times that it is more. Just something I have to deal with. Wish I didn't but that is me. Seems I am always ready to put another one is the books and try again. I am really depressed.
Got one item in from eBay today and was kind of expecting it. Got my miniature drill chuck. Didn't come with the set screws. Thought I was screwed but the ones on my old drill holder fit so that worked out nicely. Got it installed. Going to make it a lot easies to changes bits now. Just a bit of vibration but will work just fine. Decided I am going to take my old homemade chop saw motor and see if I can make me a mini table saw. Was underpowered so I don't know how well it will work. Just going to make it very basic. Got a good idea how to build it. Really need some dowel rod but I don't have any so I will just turn some on my lathe.
Ordered a couple of things on eBay. Ordered some more buck regulators and some more volt meters. Always needing those to monitor battery voltage.
Decided it doesn't matter if what I build is of much use. The use is just in building it. So I will build. Might be daff little projects but fun and keeps me busy.
Did my usual kitchen duty this morning. No wood working. And again I didn't get the car out today. Probably will tomorrow in order to work on my table saw. Shouldn't take all that much time to build. Won't have just a lot of cutting height. Really just want it to cut plastic sheet and my thin fiber board.
Didn't really do any project work outside of working on my coding. Got my bottom push working on my Raspberry Pi and got my radio code working without all the Cursive input. Remove that. Want to make it work on my button push to select radio stations. Worked on my Clock code. Thinking there is a better way but I haven't thought of it yet. Want to get my two line display working too.
Did get a notice from the Houston Museum of Natural Science that my auction win has shipped. Will probably get it Monday. Rather on Tuesday. Monday is probably going to be a holiday for the 4th.
My Duster. Looked for the longest time thinking if I ever found it I would buy it back. Now I don't think so. Time just to leave it in the past. Still wonder what happened to it and think for the trade in value I just should have kept it. Hindsight. Would have been worth a lot now.
Got the recycle bin on the front porch ready to go out to the curb. Pretty much full. No trash bin though. Still a lot of room left in that.
Had my cheese sandwich today. Burned Jasmine for the incense of the day. No lap cat. Fozzy hasn't been interesting in a while. Didn't stay long watching TV with me tonight. Still loves to snuggle though.
More of the same pretty much for viewing pleasure. YouTube videos, Netflix series and Barnwood builders.
Gold is back in the fourth quarter of $1700 an ounce. Crude started another run at a 52 week high but didn't quite make it. Has had a pretty good run the last several days in setting new 52 week highs.
Not expecting anything to come in tomorrow.
Since the car isn't out don't plan on going out for a drive tonight.
Don't know when or if my Landscaper is ever going to come fix my yard. No further word on my car.
Got one junk call today. Only let it ring four times. Hung up before I could get there. Junk call. No others. Maybe all of my request are paying off. Has been quiet the last two days.
Beginning to look like a long dry spell of launches. Maybe all the way out until the 27th. Falcon 9.
I think that is going to do it for tonight.
Didn't hear any fireworks from the ball park tonight.
