Disappointed in the rain.

For all the almost certain forecast of rain we barely got a trace but I guess the forecast was right. We did get some rain. Just really not even enough to measure in my rain gauge. I did run an errand today and I did have to turn on the windshield wipers. I guess that counts as rain. Was a humid day too. I was starting to sweat out in the shop. Was warmer today than yesterday and is warmer tonight. My outside temperature gauge shows it to be 75°F with 94% humidity. Very humid tonight. It has been trying to rain and the radar shows something over us but it isn't raining. There is a big storm cell but is probably going to pass to the south of us. The forecast is still calling for thunderstorms staring like right now but nothing is happening. Looks like any kind of rain is entirely going to miss us.
I carried on the tradition and had my cheese sandwich today. Was good.
Did manage to make it up early this morning and watch the launch of the Falcon 9 Crew launch. Everything went well. Always interesting to watch it launch and recover the booster. They still make it look so easy but I am sure the enormous amount of hard work it must take to make it look easy. Looking at the 26th for the next watchable launch. A Delta rocket.
I got one item delivered today from eBay. Got my Purell hand sanitizer in today. Didn't order anything though. I also got my drawer pulls in today along with the first box of LiFePO4 batteries that I ordered. Also my order from Modern Coin Mart has shipped. Still have a lot of item outstanding. Once I finish my dresser I probably won't be ordering much. I still have projects to work on though.
I can hear rain hitting my sky light. Not much at the moment. And I did hear some thunder. Still looks like the main part of the storm is going to pass well to the south of us. Will keep mentioned it.
For housework today I sorted, folded and put away my load of whites. I cleaned up a couple of cat deposits. Poor Fozzy. Not going to be easy to be a long haired cat. I cut up all the cardboard boxes and put them in the recycle bin except for one big one and I will just put that out next to my bin in the morning.
Day two of my stitches gone. Itching pretty much completely gone now. I still have some stitches under the skin that are suppose to dissolve. Don't know how long exactly that takes.
The shop is pretty much a mess at the moment. Going to take a little bit to get it sorted. I managed to get two drawers built today. Didn't put in the bottom panels. They seemed to fit perfectly before I put the drawers together and now they are just a fraction to big. Have to trim the down. Did a bit of sanding to fix my goofs on the drawers and routed the edge on the top, sanded that and the face frame. Just really close to stain. I also cut the grove in the skirt board and sanded that. Should do some staining tomorrow.
No project work today except for just a touch of sorting out my project table. Nothing more than than.
Viewing pleasure today just consisted of YouTube Videos.
Only one junk call today. No lap cat yet. No bills paid today.
Gold is still holding on to it position in the upper quarter of $1700 an ounce. Crude regained a little ground but is still lagging far behind its 52 week high.
Can't really tell from tracking if I am going to get anything delivered tomorrow. I did schedule a delivery from Home Depot. I think it was my project panels. I know I have oak boards yet to be delivered. I think my slightly warped boards are going to work for drawers. So I will use them instead of the two new boards that I ordered.
Need to do more work on my HEB delivery order. Think I am going to cook tomorrow for two days.
Text Gary and Ashley.
Spent a good part of the day in the shop. Tired tonight plus getting up early to watch the launch.
The lawn company didn't come at all this week.
Going to take a short break and sort out the shop.
Got the shop sorted but haven't put up the car yet.
Probably going to have to turn on the air conditioner tomorrow. Looks like a warmup. And will only get hotter.
Going to be a free shredding event in Missouri City next Saturday. Got a box of paper I need shredded.
I think that is going to do it for tonight.
