My PS5 controller was having “stick drift” where the camera or character moves with no input from me. Super irratating. I watched a few videos and tried the solution and they worked!
Took Nana to get her hair washed, trimmed and dried. Makes her happy. Makes me happy.
I taped down a section of carpet that was pulling up.
Keep going.

Got the return codes for Amazon organized. Took the pillows and laser device to the UPS store and Whole Foods this afternoon.
OYB!
Español!
Nakuru weather.
Refilled and put J’s water bottles in her fridge.
We had a power outage for a few seconds at our house yesterday. After that, Nana’s weather station wasn’t reading the outside sensor. I changed batteries and reset it. Then it worked fine.
Vocabulario.
K noticed this restaurant and wondered what it was. Guesses?
Got a filling done today. It was harder to do than the doctor expected. Part of the tooth cracked off. He had to use another typer of polymer as a filling since there was a lot of blood from having to trim the gums. The filling material is not as strong but hopefully will last. He said if it had a problem, “Come back and I’ll put the stronger material when the gums have healed.” Sounds like a plan. I rarely chew on hard things any more.
I thought this K-Pop Demon Hunter show from Korea was pretty good. I wish I could get this advertisement for Everly. She loves their music. Everly told me she is going to start taking singing lessons. I like that.
I thought tucking in little Finny Fox was so cute. Penelope is such an angel.
Penelope had a headache when she got off from the bus. We took the girls home and I got Penelope some medicine. I have to take a picture of the bottle so I can zoom it in on my phone. I gave her a couple of ibuprofen.
I helped the kids at the Mission. K stayed with PE at their house since Penelope wasn’t feeling great.
Looks like the health care is coming together.
I’m sending some things back to Amazon for my Mom. A couple I’ll take to the UPS store near me and one to the Whole Foods in Chamblee by the Mission. Amazon is specific about which store takes which items for free return. The UPS store near me can accept items, BUT they’re going to charge me $6.99 to do it. No, thanks. Whole Foods is near the Mission and always free. This time the UPS store near me also did it for free.
Took the trash to the curb. They pick up early.
It’s a long-term thing.

Edited and printed up the birthday messages for Penelope and Ashley from Nana.
Cool.
OYB!
Came in third place last week. I got edged out in the last thirty minutes! I like that kind of effort.
Did my laundry.
Filled up J’s water bottles.
K and I picked up the girls at the bus and went to Taco Veloz. I wrote P’s name in French fries.
Envios in Spanish means you’re sending something. I thought it was interesting that they would be sending beer cans.
Helped the kids at the Mission.
I saw this sticker on one of the cars at Azalea. Didn’t know what it meant.
Nana helped me order the groceries. K and I picked them up on the way home. We had to wait about twenty minutes to get the groceries, and then didn’t get all my stuff. I left a review about it. First time I’ve ever done that.
I pruned my rubber tree before I brought it inside. I left the really tall branches outside on the ground. Before it froze, I went out and got them. I’d been reading about propagation and I figured I’d try it.
Deja vu.

Watered my roses. I cut one bush back and I thought I had probably killed it. But it started sprouting!
Perfect weather for yard work.
Swept and scrubbed the kitchen floor with a rag. Then dried it off.
I retaped the entrance rag. Old tape was coming unstuck.
I tried cleaning my shoes while they were still on my feet. Seemed to work pretty well. Easier on your hands.
This morning I saw a rat in my green room. I set up two small and one large traps.
I helped my Mom get her iPad and charging situation squared a way.
Cleaned the recessed area of the shower. I used my toothbrush and an old head.
Listened to Don Cheto while I raked.
It’s always a daunting job.
Today, I decided rather than just put the leaves in the yard, I’d take all the leaves to where they’ll finally end up: at the bottom of my yard. Why move them twice?
The blower is great for getting the smaller stuff.
I picked up sticks while I was cleaning.
My trees created a hazard in the street. I got all the leaves up and put them in my recycle areas.
Looks better! In a few days I won’t be able to tell it’d been done.
Recorded and released a new episode of Verbal Surgery called “Investinstigate”. May be my worst title ever. But the content is good!
Set up my account with Map Genie. Arc Raiders is a great game, but it’s hard to find things you need.
I’ll come in second, probably.

Rode my bike 12.93 miles last night around midnight. I ride for almost exactly 30 minutes and quit. The mileage changes every night, but not the time. My fastest was over 14 miles in 30 minutes.
OYB!
You may notice the writing in the margins of my OYB. These are from today: Ashley’s Birthday! Cool what we see she was doing over the years.
Español!
I thought I had a lunch meeting with Jon Paul today. He assumed we were talking about next week! No worries.
Research on Arc Raiders.
Miles and Ashley are in the N. Georgia mountains this weekend. They may be able to see the Northern Lights! Clayton is where K and I went on a long weekend.
I took K for Indian food today. So good.
Went to my office to check on the mail. I’ll process and deposit the checks tomorrow. No time to do that today.
Helped the kids at the Mission.
After the tutor time, I got the kids to help me pick up trash. We cleaned the playground and the area near the median in the front by the Office and the Mission.
The girls came home with us. What a blessing they are.
Sunset on the way home was spectacular. I pulled off the side of the road so I could shoot this series.
Just keep doing it.

Helped J put her new bed stand together. That’s going to free up a LOT of space in her room!
Still figuring out my new game, Arc Raiders.
Ashley and Miles had their garage door spring bust last night. I picked Ash up at her work since she couldn’t get her car out of the garage. Everyone’s happy to see Ashley!
K and I helped the kids at the Mission.
Brought my Mom some food from Piccadilly. Menu.
Nice today, just a bit chilly
OYB!
I brought my carnivores back outside for the Winter. I’ve had them inside during the freezes.
Daily.
