Did laundry!

Worked on getting all the stuff together for the PCBC conference on Sunday.

While I was getting into the church, I dropped my keys and the car fob came apart. Eventually, I figured out that the batteries went head to head, not head to tail and I got it to work. I couldn’t get to the Mission on time. K and I went by there later, but no one was out. We had finished almost everything yesterday. I told Ms. Jones I probably wasn’t going to make it today.

Went by Ashley’s house to drop off a hot glue gun (pink!) for her. Also left Penelope’s tablet.

Then to the bank to deposit checks. Thank you, Father!

Got gas and checked the oil in the Lincoln.

Nice!

Downloaded new episodes of Don Cheto to listen to on my bike ride.

Cleaned my bike and rode 12.36 miles in 1:24.

Blew the driveway and the deck. Also blew the leaves off the road in front of my house.

Watered the plants on the deck and cleaned and refilled the birdbaths.

Jessi helped me put the new bird feeding stations together. They have baffles on them to keep the squirrels away. Amen.

I put one in the back yard too, so Nana can watch the birds from her window.

Heard from my friend Stuart Sutton about selling my Mom’s house. Hopefully, we’ll get that going soon.

Cooler! I wore long pants.

We had a meeting with K’s new cardiologist today. We liked him. He’s from India.

K and I took the girls out to eat. We haven’t been doing that.

Ordered a new air mattress for J. The old one is leaking air.

Keep going.

Great man! I once tried to call him, but sadly he had died just a few months before.

My left arm has been bothering me. Looked up some info on Chat GPT.

Went to the Post Office to get my $31.40 back from the Overnight Express package that got to the Texas DMV late.

Mileage!

Deposited checks. Amen. Thank you, Father.

Went by Whole Foods to return the bird feeder pole to Amazon. They stopped using UPS for their return spots for free, Amazon was going to charge me $6.99 to use that location. Fortunately, WF is close to Azalea so it’s not a big deal for me.

Worked with the kids at the Mission. I brought more chairs from my storage area at the church.

Tight race.

OYB!

I tried out my new bird feeder pole, but decided to return it to get one with an anti-squirrel baffle on it.

Cloudy with some drizzle. Hurricanes in the Atlantic.

K and I went to Taco Veloz for lunch. We stuffed the envelopes while we were there. Then I put them in the mail.

Helped the kids at Azalea with their homework.

Got the groceries and put them up.

Received the proof for my new family prayer card.

Cleaned out the trashcan where I put my bird and animal food. The seed had gotten wet and gone bad. I threw it al outl, and scrubbed the can clean. Then put the fan on it to dry it out. Also cleaned out and dried the bird seed feeder.

Took the distilled water to my back door in my cart. Easier than carrying all those jugs by hand down the stairs.

Soaked one of my hats again with some extra whitener oxyclean. It wasn’t really clean yet.

This one looked great.

Decided to return the pole for my feeder because it didn’t have a baffle. The UPS by my house no longer does the free Amazon returns. Fortunately, there’s a Whole Foods near the Mission that is easy for me to take it to.

Keep going.
