Since my body doesn’t handle taking a walk every day, I decided to follow up my weight training with time on a bike at the Y. I had trouble focusing on my audio book while pedaling. The guy next to me was reading an ebook. I may try that on Thursday.

I think the new people at CBS want to bring back the glory years.

I told my husband I thought this plant wasn’t part of the wildflower seeds he planted and that we should rip it out. And then this happened.

A reputable hair piece salon could cut that in for him to make it look more natural.

Tonight I used the bread maker to make pizza dough. It was too sticky. I guess I had the measurements off. Tomorrow, I’m going to try a basic loaf of bread.

On Thursday, DH and I went shopping on the 127 Yard Sale. We picked up a few things. It was his first time, so I took it easy on him. This morning I went out by myself, intending to shop in the other direction. First stop and I found a bread maker, which is what I was looking for.

This is the kind of thing that I know people haven’t seen, but when I show it to them, they moan and sign and shake their head, but continue to support him. I don’t get it.

My copy of your translation arrived in the mail yesterday. I’m going to print the article and keep it with the book.

This is a good article, as long as the translation I read is accurate. Tha is for sharing. It says that the books are from the 1970s-1990s, so old, but under copyright. According to this, many of the books are old science books. One concern is training AI on old science and old prejudices.

Happy birthday to @cruisinsoozan.bsky.social. We met on Twitter in 2010. People think online friendships aren’t real, but we’ve sent the same birthday card back and forth for the last 10 years. We’ve seen each other through thru good times and bad. Here’s to you, Sooz. Love ya. 🥂

Meanwhile, Ohio’s AG actually asked to be able to share our voter information.

Just really feeling appreciative today that Donald John Trump rushed the Covid vaccine through and took it himself and told everyone to. Good job Trump MAKING THE COVID VACCINE

I feel pretty good about already having one of these books on my list this summer.

Today is another one of those uncomfortable times where I find myself looking wistfully back at the Bush Administration.

I just got a notice that our local Kroger is having a grand reopening. That can only mean one thing. They’ve rearranged the shelves!! 😕

Until recently, it’s been a green salad. The last two have been bean salads.

I may be crazy, but I’m thinking about going to the Y in the morning, coming home to get a shower, then heading to physical therapy. I’d have just enough time afterwards to see a matinee of The Odyssey. The main problem would be that I’m notorious for sleeping thru fight scenes.

View tonight from Duckfoot’s beach, Grand Lake St Mary’s, Mercer Co, Ohio.

Water laps on a sandy beach, and the trees cast their shadow on the nearly-still water just before sunset. In the distance, a fisherman casts a line from his small boat.

I got the tubular bind off done. I did have to join yarn. I must have messed up the math. Anyway, I’m happy with it, and Cami seems to approve. Still need to do the ribbing on the armholes and neck. #knitsky

When you knit a tubular cast off, how much yarn do you have for the tail? I’ve seen 3x and 4x the length of your work. #knitsky

There is a camera trained on the reflecting pool 24-7 that one can access from a website. If it happened, they need to bring up the footage.

I’ll never not think of the movie “Wag the Dog” when someone mentions Albania. “the film centers on a spin doctor and a Hollywood producer who fabricate a war in Albania to distract voters from a presidential sex scandal.” Wikipedia.

To make life easier for the person checking on the cat when we travel, we added an electronic door lock. Now we’re locked in the house. How’s your day going?

The summary inside closes saying, “Above all, 1975-76 should be remembered as a year America seemed to come alive with an enthusiastic celebration of the Bicentennial and renewed promise of the future.”
