Nice and useful. I'm doing the Japanese garden right now. |

I have a list of chores for the day. Much of it involves cleaning. I dislike the process, but love the results. Hopefully there will some time for personal space, too.
Have a pleasant day.

No cleaning for me. I may even dirty the place up a bit.
Coffee first, though.

I am cleaning and doing laundry today. Spent so much time practicing for the gig and "horsing around" last week that I accomplished few household tasks.
I have Bluegrass Gospel music blasting on the BOSE as I work this morning. That makes everything better.
Have a wonderful day everyone.

Hurricane preps. Hopefully a dud (not a Dub). In any case, plenty of warning, unlike that crazy Derecho.

After brunch at 10:00 am, I'm going to fire up the Harley and take a ride over to Garrison. I'll check on the Mercantile and the then drive near Todd's place, as I wind my way home. Todd needs to get all the roads paved, then I could actually get to his house, but now if I did my motorcycle would be covered in dust like Todd's Jeep, can't have that.

Good morning. Crossword worked, walk taken. Enjoy your day. My Mom and Dad did the NYT crossword every Sunday. Improved my vocabulary markedly, but not my ability to do crossword puzzles. Can't even do the most basic ones. |

I cut up my particle board/wood picture laminate entertainment center into shelves for my kiln room. I think I found a home for my Pioneer receiver/Technics turntable/Technics cassette player/Bose speakers. I photoed my albums and a guy from Goshen immediately came down and took them all. I saved all the Michael Johnson to digitize as well as the Hot Rize and the Johnsons. Amazing (after finally going through all the albums) how much of it I had already re-bought as cd reissues. It's going to be another warm one and I'll be glad I got the entertainment center cut up before it got hot outside. I'll listen to my nephew's church service.  |

Doc, I do the LA Times puzzle, which I suspect is easier. Anyway it's free.
I never used to do crosswords. About eight years ago I wondered if my mental acuity might be fading. I started doing crosswords as a daily check on whether I was still mostly functioning.

Good morning
I won't feel bad if I don't get any shop work done today, it's Sunday. But I still need to do household chores.
Don't know if the girls will be back today, tomorrow or if they are staying a few more days. DaWife has this week off also so I'll have to call and hope the wind is blowing the right direction for her to get a signal. The cats and I have been quite happy with a empty house all week, but I do miss Me Darling Wife. I would like to say with the teenage girls gone I haven't had any fast food this week but Donn and Glenn brought Subway sammies by the other day. Being on a low starch diet at this time I didn't eat the bread, just the meat and veggies.
Pine Island 94F. Dewpoint 78 degrees. Going to be very sticky on the island today.

Good outdoor gig at Cross Lake. We played pretty well for going in cold. Last job was Creek House in February I think.
Marty I talked to Cheri but I don’t think they stayed as the girls were disturbed by the behavior of the large crowd. Not enough distancing. It was a little spooky but on the bandstand I was largely able to claim my bubble.
Drove back through several big thunderstorms. Rain that slowed you to a crawl and lightning that temporarily blinded you. Got home pretty late so just getting up.

Another beautiful day
Puerto Vallarta 86-ish
Here’s a little picture
My Prayer - (for the hurting souls)
It’s usually playing piano - Steal Away, Lean on Me
or a little writing
And not on my knees
So it’s time for food....
Enjoy your days.

Brunch today is from Culver's -- a Butterburger, steamed broccoli and a nice tall cup of their excellent Blue Spoon Blend coffee.
Indy 500 coverage begins at noon -- gonna be strange with no spectators in the stands.

Up and coffee. Not much going on today. Maybe a bike ride later for some excercise.
