It is raining with thunder and lightning for at least the next couple of hours. I was working on some old videos from the 60s yesterday. The quality is poor but brings back some thoughts, both good and bad. I had to figure out how to work the projector and screen again. I got to Walmart yesterday but unfortunately I always go early and miss seeing the funny people coming in. The new DVR, and who knows if it is new, does not want to cooperate with my stereo speakers. Only one will work. The problem is not my speakers. I was talking with my provider yesterday and she told me it has to be plugged into the TV. That does not work with my situation and I know it worked plugged into the other DVR. All is lost. Woe is this writer! Fortunately I only use them on the TV when I brush my teeth, at least 99% of the time. My analysis is that there is something wrong with the plug on the DVR. At least I can get one to work so I can put my ear to that one. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Good morning. I woke up and heard the rain on the side of the house. At one point earlier, about 11 PM, I had to get up and close the window. About 3AM, listening to the rain, I found myself not wanting to get up. It was peaceful, but then, an occasional thunder and lightning. I have no walk planned unless it is later. About 6 AM an excursion to the store, though it is a Walmart. It is not an emergency. They used to be open 24/7. Like everything, not good for this writer. The installation of a new Bishop today. I wonder if I will be called upon to speak. You know, introducing him and so forth. He is from Detroit so he will not know a lot of people here. Hide from the rain. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
Good morning. Because of the incident with my technical support yesterday, I shall have to go to church this morning. I am not used to going on a Sunday any more. I am going to the Cathedral which I did years ago and now only make a cameo there. And now the Mass does not begin until 7:30. I would rather go at 6 like in previous years. Change! Humbug!!! Maybe I shall try to do my walk downtown before Mass. Game time decision on that. I have come to the conclusion that my problem from yesterday was my own making. I knew I should not try to do any cleaning around my television and accessories. Have a reasonable day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet! Postscript: Looks like a cooler day than yesterday.
Good morning. Happy Saturday. I opened my windows this morning to get some fresh air into the house. The temperature in the house is not really too bad. I think about 73° F. However, I have been hearing rumors of pollen and other things in the air that never seemed to bother me at an earlier age. I suspect that some of those alien things now have an effect on me. Nothing serious. Just something to let you know that you are alive and subject to things out of your control. I got out yesterday for a nice walk and then I went to church. That was it for the day as far as doing anything. In either case, while at church I had a chance to become an art critic. I went over and took some pictures of the new mosaic which I am including in my newsletter this morning. It actually looks better than my picture. I don't exactly have a camera without mirrors so consequently it loses something in the translation. I have nothing planned for today. I will be getting out for a walk in approximately an hour from my keystroke of the computer. I am hoping to visit every web site on the Internet over the weekend. I will also be attending the obligatory Mass later in the day. I would much rather go to church during the week than the weekend for several reasons but in either case, that may be it for the day. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
