The News From Here

I survived yesterday’s labor but with that followed a high degree of lethargy and anti motivation. Imagine that. It was worth a little extra effort even when I re-examined the project this morning.
I may even be up for a trip to the brewery in a while. The musician tonight is someone I know and have visited with before PLUS I enjoy his easy style of singing and playing the guitar. Hum thinking about going uptown in a while makes me question if I ate today? I don’t think so, something else to deal with soon. I’m pretty sure that bowl of cereal I had about 3:00 AM is used up by now even though I haven’t done much.
3 hours later I did go uptown and enjoyed the time. A visit with Michael Marriott and enjoyed his smooth mellow music and met some other people there. Just a nice evening away from “old #5.” Not that I’m tired of “0ld #5” but . . . I did notice when I came home that the front yard lights don’t do much anymore as the Cactus have over grown them.  I ?may? have to consider some new low voltage wire as what I have left is really OLD, stiff and the insulation is WAY too hard and been punctured too many times and places to make good contact with the enclosed wire. I’ve been fighting it in the back yard but that’s only 20+ feet. If (IF?) I decide to re-do the lights in front – well – there will be NEWER wire involved. Much like a lot of “projects” here – Oh I will get around to RE-doing it – it’s just WHEN. FIXING something to make it work is OK but changing something to make it better than it ever was (change) is more fun.
Well - I know exactly what I meant to say but do YOU?
It’s beautiful pleasant evening outside and I think I’ll grab the Kindle (just downloaded two books) and adjourn to the courtyard. If I wake up EARLY maybe I’ll declare it “Laundry Day” if not I may have to scrounge through the “preciously worn” pile. Neither option will keep from sleeping but. . .
