Well, none was forecast for today and we certainly didn't get any. Next reasonable chance of rain is next weekend starting about Friday and lasting through Saturday and Sunday. It also looks like next week is going to be some what warmer too. Looks like good shop weather. Should finish my blanket chest but I lack certain hardware to really finish it and I might run out of finish too. I will just do what I can and wait on the rest. Was out working on the replacement part today. Should finish that tomorrow and have it ready to go. Should finish all the sanding on the main body and start to stain it. But My mind always sees me doing more than I ever get done. Really probably going to be lucky just to get the replacement part done. Going to be sunny too after Saturday. Got my Aladdin lamp lit in my office. Already starting to feel a bit more toasty in here.
I did the truck start, run and drive today and I also decided that it was time to add at least part of my generator gas to the truck. So I also did that today. Still have a bit more to add and I think my truck tank could probably hold all of it but I will wait just a bit longer before doing that.
Today was an eBay day. Actually got two items in from eBay today. Tracking shows that I might get another item tomorrow but don't know. After that it looks like it might be a while before anything else comes in from eBay. I also have a wood working tool still outstanding. Really need to try that before I can finish my blanket chest. Not sure when that might get here.
Did the cheese sandwich tradition lunch today. Just almost out of bread so it looks like I am going to have to go at least a few days without toast and jam. I think I have maybe enough other options for breakfast until I can get another HEB delivery. And I did start another delivery order today. Just the usually stuff. I really should just put together a spread sheet of all the things I typically order and then just pick and choose from all the items that I have ordered in the past.
Kept thinking today was the 5th and was wondering why no one was covering the Falcon 9 Launch. But today is just the 4th and the launch is tomorrow. About mid morning. Going to try to remember.
Got to take a break sometime tonight and sort out my shop which is a nightly item. Doesn't really take long but I wish I had a dedicated shop and could just leave it permanently set up and my projects in place.
Fozzy has been a lap cat a lot lately. Not here now but probably will be shortly.
Tonight's viewing pleasure has been the continuing episodes of The Flash and more YouTube videos. My standard fair. This weekend is not a premium channel free preview weekend. Last week end was all of them so it would have been a surprise if this weekend was.
My outside temperature gauge shows 44°F. Shop doesn't feel that cold. No tent up so no sound of the night to report.
I think I got three junk calls today. One hung up before I could get to it. Been forgetting to list that number but I haven't been paying much attention to them.
Paid a paperless bill today. Not sure if I have any bills on paper except from my lawn company which I still need to pay. Have to write a check for that one.
Gold is still trading in the low $1800 an ounce range. Crude looks to be on a move upwards but slowly still way below its 52 week high.
And no incense today. Haven't burned any in a while.
Text Gary today.
Did some house work today. Got the dishes in the dishwasher and ran it. Have to put them up. Cleaned a little in the bathroom. No vacuuming today. Cats always seem to be sleeping in the room I want to vacuum. No project work today. I have been concentrating on my wood working. Don't know why I seem to be in such a hurry to finish my blanket chest. I know I can't really finish it but can get close.
Since it looks like it might warm up some I might put the tent back up. Missing my time out there.
Going to take a bit of a break and sort out the shop. Got my shop sorted but still haven't put up the car. I will do that after a bit.
Got my recyclables bin out to the curb tonight. Nice bright moon out tonight but it is not quite full anymore but still beautiful. Cold enough out side to see your breath. Official temperature says 44°F. Still cold.
Going to put up the car soon.
I think that is going to do it for tonight.
