In for rain tomorrow. Nothing today.
Nov. 2nd, 2021 11:28 pmDoes look like an excellent chance of thunder showers starting about 1:00 pm tomorrow and maybe lasting until Thursday. Don't know if I should call it an excellent chance of rain or not since it is going to be thunderstorms. Should just say an elevated chance of rain. Looks like at least for the next several days it is going to turn cold. Fall is here. Right now my outside temperature gauge says it is about 69°F with 82% humidity. Officially at the air port it is 67°F with 87% humidity. Did some work in the shop and it was comfortable. Really needed to change out of my long sleeve t-shirt but didn't. Would have been a bit more comfortable.
I think this mornings incense was jasmine. Just guessing really but I think it was.
Got my hardware for my China cabinet in today from Rockler. Based it on two doors in the display cabinet but have decided I want three doors to keep the weight down on the door.
Didn't pay any bills today. Nothing to pay.
Put Twist in my lap so he was an involuntary lap cat but he went right to sleep. Twist did snuggle a few minutes with me this morning until annoyed by his brother.
No project work at all today and no house work either.
Took my car in today to get the battery replaced. Just took one day and they were supposed to send it out with a full charge but I picked it up this afternoon. Got it on charge now. Won't make fully charged until Thursday. At least got that out of the way. All my appointments and my car out of the way. Nothing coming up that I have to be.
I ordered a new refrigerator freezer today. Did manage to find one that I wanted. Didn't want ice and water through the door but did want an ice maker. Found a big one with something called a family center. Looks cool but I didn't need it but I could get it next Tuesday. Expensive. But if it sooths my anxieties a little it will be worth it. It is making a lot of noise so I hope it makes it until next Tuesday. I unpacked my emergency refrigerator freeze tonight. Not near big enough to hold all of my frozen food but will hold a lot of it. Plenty of room in the refrigerator part of it. If it doesn't make it I guess I am as prepared as I can be.
For viewing pleasure today I watched more of my new Netflix moving and Super Girl Started watching another movie but decided I wasn't interested because it sounded a lot like an old Twilight Zone episode.
For woodworking I started on the dust frames and got one partially built. Got to build two. Something off in a measurement. Will figure it out tomorrow and it will be a simple small trim if I need to. Did the edge treatment to the top and all sanded except for a few wood filler repairs. Finished sanding the base board. Never do seem to get as much done as I think I can.
Not expecting anything to be delivered tomorrow. Now I have the two eBay items and my custom doors from Rockler yet to be delivered. And of course my new Refrigerator. I think that is about it.
I opened the box from the Museum of Natural Science that had my auction win in it. Nice bowls. Black with white fossils and a lot heavier and thicker than I thought they would be. Got eight of them with a retail price of just about $60. Bid was much lower so I guess I got a bargain. Don't know what I am going to do with them now but they are cool I guess they are food safe but might be etched by high acid foods. Probably best just to put dry items in them.
Got the shop sorted but the car is still out on charge. Going to put it up soon and put it back on charge. Should be safe to do that now.
Had ice cream for dessert after dinner.
Warm in my office tonight.
Think I will put the car up. Got all my have to be there items over with. At least for a while.
Gold dropped a little deeper into $1700 an ounce and crude looks like it is in striking distance of another 52 week high but has backed off of it a bit.
Falcon 9 crew postponed again. Next watchable launch is probably on the 4th or November.
I think that is going to do it for tonight.
