No Sunday Angst today
Easy not to have Sunday Angst when Monday is a holiday! Not much going on today, finished off bundling the tree limbs for trash day and raking the front strip of grass in the front. I literally raked out 100 pounds of leaves and other debris from there, and another 200 from the beds and…

Solo Saturday
Sandy took off for Erie today, leaving me to my own devices for a week. So far so good, I got up and kissed her goodbye, fixed the TV antenna on the roof, went and had a 20lb tank filled, and put the new sticker on the truck. Went to Walmart for supplies to restring…

Statistics
I don’t ever want to play the part Of a statistic on a government chart The Police -1981 Tough luck, you are a statistic on a government chart, just hope you’re in the upper part of it. I’m taking a statistics class and my eyes are crossing. If your selling point to get people to…

If pirates wrote code, what language would it be? Rrrrr
We’ve discovered that you can, by following some really archaic directions, use R in Jupyter Notebooks. So the next step of my educational journey seems to consist of the R programming language which is done (not surprisingly) in R-Studio. As I work through the micro degree on my way to the full size one, I’m…

Mass Shooting – Uvalde, TX
So as I was going through my day the news started to filter through. School shooting, lockdown, 2 dead, gunman arrested. It barely registered because there were only two after all, tragic as a school shooting is it’s hardly news anymore. The next I hear there are multiple fatalities and the gunman isn’t in custody……

More Excercise
As we celebrate another week in the books, I’m excited to say we’ve been doing a great job of moving for at least 30 minutes a day. Today we walked outside but even in the morning, it’s starting to get hot. One of the really nice things about the rec center is that the walking…

Toxic Relationships
I REALLY REALLY don’t want to hear about the Johnny Depp – Amber Heard trial but it’s kind of hard not to see it somewhere. It’s hard to fathom what led the once-great actor/heart-throb to expend so much time and energy on a self-destructive, heart-crushing relationship. The bottom line is there are things that poison…

We got our rec center passes!
After not having it for several years, Sandy and I went and got our rec center passes today. For $100 for both of us, we have access to all the equipment and walking track in the AC. We walked for 30 minutes and picked up our passes on the way out (they had used our…

Sundaze, a hazy shade of summer
I had a decent day, I actually worked all day on school and got it turned in, and spent about 7 hours on it. I turned it in and within an hour I got the notice that it’s deficient:( Three things need to be fixed and at first I was up in arms but as…

Watched – Firestarter (2022)
I’m not usually a fan of remakes, and this movie makes me remember why. I fondly remember the 1984 movie with Drew Barrymore, it was (I guess) a little more believable or maybe it’s because I was 12 and Drew’s character of Charlie was really cute. That movie seemed to flow right, you sympathized with…
