And it's early in the morn.
Unloading the full boxes here in the new place and installing Elfa closet systems, 3 done, three remaining. Very easy to design and build. About $2K for 6 closets. Found a 50" 1080p plasma HDTV to mount over the fireplace - can buy it for less than half of what I paid for a 42" three years ago.
Graham returns in a month. He'll like his space - I've mounted his flat screen on the wall, and set up his computer. Restocking the pantry with junk food is the final task.

Morning.
Wife and I have started a CD recording project. Went through the Cakewalk/Sonar system last night and got it geared up.
There's something magical and fatally attractive about staying up ridiculously late on Monday night and then struggling to drag my butt through the rest of the week. You'd think I'd eventually learn.

Good Morning Monday is over. ;D This particular Monday surely wasn't that bad.....you got to talk to me. ;D Emailed the folks at Guild, haven't heard back yet. Mornin'..... Lots to do today. Nail salon, school meeting, kid's checkups at the clinic, grade school spring music program. That's enough.

Good beautiful morning, all. We might hit 80 today, which is wonderful.
Tbob, we'd love to see pictures of your place when it's done. Or not done. I'm anxious to see your view.

Todd, I'll post some pictures over the weekend. Still hoping for a boat just outside and below the deck in the near future. Perhaps I can trade one of my cars for one. It's been cold and windy most of the ten days we've been here so haven't really been able to enjoy the large waterfront deck with views of the local mountain, Tamalpais. I cooked a turkey dinner on Sunday night, mostly to get it out of of the apartment-sized refrigerator/freezer for the much needed space. You in particular of the Soundhole clan would have been invited if you were a touch closer geographically as "There Will Be Blood Skin and Gravy" and it was most excellent. Patricia makes the best gravy I've ever had (my grandmother, stepmother, and practice wife were no slouches in that department). I thought of you and your hilarious SIL stories when I enjoyed the meals, both Sunday and last night. Turkey soup will be prepared today, and there's a potpie in the near future. Sandwiches have already been consumed. Trivia factoid: Israelites eat more turkey than any other country in the world. Evidently, street vendors there prepare turkey whatevers much as burritoes, tacos, etc are vended in many Spanish speaking countries. Coffee time... adieu.

Israelites? You mean the Chosen People of biblical times? I think the current usage is, Israelis (is-RAYeleez).

Good morning. It'll be mid-50s to mid-70s here...not as warm as Iowa, of course, but we'll take it. Enjoy your day.

Alas, Bill, I cannot see YouTube videos from the office. The site is blocked. I could be corrupted, so I'll have to wait until I get home.
"Israelites" does have a nice ring to it, and plenty of historical patina, though.

Money could not have bought tickets to the wonderful concert Breeze and I were treated to on the early morning trails. Far overhead, on three trees -- each with a different degree of hollowness and size, creating three distinct pitches -- three woodpeckers were trading drum rolls back and forth and together. Then they'd break into woodpecker laughter. Breeze and I just stopped and enjoyed it for a few minutes.

It's a rainy day in Roseville Such a rainy day in Roseville Lord I feel like it's raining all over the world. STILL! Sposed to dry up and hit 75 degrees later. Twins home opener was fabulous, by all accounts. They beat the Red Sox handily and are on top of their division at 6-2, I think it is/

Blocked, Bill. I'll view it from my home computer this evening. Is it a snip from "The Life of Brian?"

Whoah, oh, the Israelites?
The Egyptians used to use the Israelites to see at night.
