Maybe Monday rain will come.

Another rather cold day that was rain free. Not quite as cold but still not warm enough to really spend time in the shop. Looking at somewhat of a warm up starting on Saturday, Rain on Monday and then a day or so later it is going to turn cold and stay cold. Maybe rain on Wednesday. Did do just a minimum of work in the shop today. Just cut a grove to use as a base for my other binary clock project. Probably could have done a bit more in the shop but still too cold to do any extended time out there. My outside temperature gauge says it is 55°F with 53% humidity. Officially at the airport it is 56°F with 54% humidity.

Was going to watch the Falcon 9 launch. Scrubbed with fifteen minutes to go. Pretty much at the same time tomorrow.

Got a couple of items in today. Got my The Great Courses in. My Python course. Got my linear actuator in also. So now there is eBay, Lowes and Turbo tax outstanding. Not expecting my Lowes order of mini-blinds to come in until next month. Nothing from eBay. Not sure about turbo tax.

Viewing pleasure was the same as yesterday's. Locke and Key has become quite interesting. Getting in to it. Tonight is Thursday night which means I need to check after midnight to see if this is a premium channel free preview weekend.

Tomorrow is cheese sandwich day. Almost for got to mention that.

Car is out. Need to sort the shop as usual before putting the car up.

Did Okay today. Morning was bad as usual. Bad dreams again last night. I seem to be plagued with them. Improved though the day but still felt that creeping hopelessness at one point. Kind of worry about feeling kind of normal because it makes the down days that much worse. Knowing that I can feel good but knowing more bad days will unavoidable will happen. Just brain chemistry and triggers sometimes.

For housework I did kitchen duty and tested on my shop vac scrubber. Really need a baffle because the scrubber didn't really work. Everything in just pretty much went right out. Salvaged my packing paper. Finished filling for this year.

Just a little wood working to support project work.

For project work I worked on a little chaser. Close to finishing that. Charged more batteries. Improved my radio project by adding a power socket. Got my LCD screen working last night. Started on my mini servo project. Need to get the software downloaded and the wiring diagram.

Gold couldn't hold on to $1800 an ounce and fell back into $1700 an ounce territory. Crude did it again today I think and set another 52 week high but backed off.

Need to refill my oil lamp before going to bed. Need to pay my AT&T bill. Think I will do that now. Paid

Text Ling and Ashley

Got one junk call.

Twist was a lap pirate today. Three times. Snuggle with me while I was taking a nap. Fozzy woke me up at five this morning because his food bowl was empty. Can be very annoying until I get up and replenish his food.

No word on either car.

Let Kevin barrow my 9 foot ladder.

Got the car put up.

Checking on scrap to build my battery rack. Think I have enough.

I think that is going to do it for tonight.
