Well, our walk was nice this morning, we (I) had a lot to talk about and when I’m talking, I walk quicker and the walk is over sooner. If we don’t talk, it’s like I’m walking in wet cement.
It’s an absolutely beautiful day. Yesterday was nice, I turned the heater off, not just down. So, it didn’t come on this morning, which was fine. When we got home from the walk, I opened the house up. Funny, it was in the 50s when I did that, but it didn’t matter. Now, if it was two weeks ago, the heat would still be on and the house would be shut up tight. Even though the temperature was exactly the same. There’s just something about knowing it’s going to warm up.
I left the house in a vehicle for the first time since the dinner at Sizzler on Saturday night. We used up the coupons we got from Carl’s Jr’s for Brian’s messed up order and then went to Wal-Mart where I spent the last of the money I had saved from my birthday last year. I was almost out of fabric softener, needed wrapping paper, file holders (for tax stuff) and some other things. I went in with a hundred dollar bill, walked out with a buck and change. Oh, well.
I’ve spent the last week in learning mode. I did this the previous week with my new photo gallery, now I’m on to a new project. Finally got it figured out, working as well as it will work. I’m not doing cartwheels over the result, but for what I’ll be using it for, it will be fine. I’ll talk more about it in the geek section of the diary.
Brian has been helping his brother fix up the rental after the previous renters left. He was over there yesterday and yesterday morning, before his brother picked him up, we were outside tossing pine cones back up onto the bank. We talked a little about not having any cats out front. He said although he missed having cats out there, it was kind of nice. Because there was no more worries about pulling into the driveway at night. That used to be a huge fear for me, that a cat would dart out and either we would hit it or it would run across the street and be hit by a car out there. There were some pawprints on his Bronco the other morning, but there are no visible cats. I do know that there are some cats in the neighborhood, but I think they all have homes. I don’t believe there are anymore ferals, at least not on this side of the neighborhood.
I’m not missing the Fish Wrangler game at all. It really kind of surprised me, but I’ve got lots of extra time now. I’ll probably be needing it soon, because Brian has designed and is selling some things to help people with tractors. As a matter of fact, he’s going up to a large agriculture show next month in central California to talk up tractor dealers and take pictures and get dimensions on the various vehicles. He’s got a huge stack from last year and he’ll be updating them this year. Where I come in is I have to make his website and I have to design his business cards and print them up. But I can’t do anything until he gets some photos to me of what he’s selling. He really enjoys making these and it would be nice for him to finally do something that makes money that he enjoys.
Anyway, that’s it for now!
