I think it was just mostly luck as we were under a brief but probably adequate thundershower this afternoon. I think it was enough to water my fresh sod so I decided not to water it. Didn't look like just a lot of activity on the radar so we were just fortunate to have a shower pass over us. Different story for tomorrow. The moderately high chances of rain move back in tomorrow and for several days to follow. Based on the hourly forecast might wake up to rain tomorrow. Still going to be warm tomorrow but is going to cool off relatively for Friday and Saturday. Then back to being mostly warm. It is the weather. My outside temperature gauge says it is 84°F outside tonight with 78% humidity. Did just do some work out in the shop and had to move the car out. The airport reports that it is 82°F with 81% humidity. And that is the official temperature.

Didn't get anything delivered today but did order a couple of more items. I ordered some 16 pin connectors. Out of China. Going to take awhile. Couldn't find a source here. Also found a company on line that will deliver propane in 20# cylinders so I ordered one. Friday. Not really expecting anything to be delivered tomorrow. What I thought was my wooden clock kit was actually the Greenies I order for the cats. So that is still outstanding. Along with the Dietz electric lantern and my soap supplies.

Took the soap out of the "oven" and sliced it into bars. Now to let it set for three weeks and age. Will make hand soap in once my supplies come in. Don't have near enough olive oil. Maybe enough of the fixed oils though.

No bills paid today. I think todays incense burn was vanilla. Seem to recall that.

No Lap cat as of yet. Fozzy might still make an appearance. Fozzy did sleep with me most of the night. Likes to be in my arms.

Has been a very draining day. Not so much tired as just feeling drained. Of course the morning depression was not good. Didn't let up any until this afternoon. A little improvement but still feeling down. As always ready to put another one in the books. Just keep going.

Did get the car to start on starting fluid. Did take three attempts but it did start finally and ran. Put the cover back on it. Maybe a little cleaner.

Launch tomorrow at about 8:30 our time. Need to set my phone alarm so I will remember. Probably be awake at that time but just need to alarm to remind me.

Did just about the same for viewing pleasure today. Youtube and Netflix.

Had some pecan pie for dessert tonight. Still have a lot of it left.

Gold seems to have settled in the upper quarter of $1700 an ounce. Crude made up a little ground today. Back to twice its 52 week low.

For housework today I did my kitchen duty. Put the dishes up.

Did the truck start, run and drive. Pretty long loop. Keeping it in shape.

Didn't do any wood working today. Getting the urge to start my next project. I think I have enough wood to get a good ways into the project but not near enough to finish it. Going to have to order more.

For project work I finished installing all of the current limiting resistors and connect them for the ground connections. Started on an BMS board. I think I know how to wire it right. Will find out. Had to order some fittings for it so it will be a while before I get to test it.

The shop is sorted. Don't know if I will go out for a drive or not. Really not feeling it.

Seems like I did a lot today but hard to think of just what it was. At least seem to have made it through another one.

Text Gary.

Listened to some of Ashley's latest podcast.

Got Fozzy as a lap cat now. Really sweet cat.

I think that is going to do it for tonight.
