Well, you've read the notes, the notes had miles that disappeared, and now it is time for you to post until the disappearing cows come home.

To continue with the story from last night of my project:  because there was no power junction box in the ceiling for either light, I had to make a slight modification to make room for the wires.  This is what is supposed to be directly attached to the ceiling:

And here's the back of the new light fixture:

Those pieces of wood were from pants hangers with the wires removed.  Anyway, it took me a couple of tries to put up the first light fixture.  I had to take down the first plate and move the whole thing over one inch so that the fixture itself would fit in the alcove.  I did all of that on Sunday.  Today, I put up the second fixture (measuring more carefully) and it all works!  Here's the finished look! :D

Today, I went to the store and got some milk and two 6-packs of little individual pre-made graham cracker pie crusts because I had a box of sugar-free cook-on-the-stove pudding mix and wanted to finally use it.  So, after the lights were up and running, I made the pudding and filled all 12 pie crusts!  I thought each would hold more pudding, but they didn't.  Anyway, I ate one to celebrate!

Course, I would expect a full meal, not just desert.

In that case, I'd take you to a local restaurant.  I'm not much of a cook.  I can get by for myself, but for others, it'd be better to let professionals do the cooking.  Then, I'd provide the dessert.

I wonder if DR Elmore found his La Valse score.

I wonder why I never had one. I looked through mine yesterday, and was surprised to find I have Bolero in a nice study size score (Durand?) which must have been a very early acquisition. I became enamored of Bolero in high school. See, I was light years ahead of those people who discovered it in "10".

My only other Ravel is the Dover reprint of Daphnis et Chloé in full score. I apparently never had La Valse or anything else.

Our local theater has announced postponement of the rest of the season. I'm sure they will cancel the last three shows, but are trying to find a way to still to do it.

I wonder if they'd consider a high quality recording and give the ticketholders a link.

I finished the very long intro to The Decameron last night. I had just finished Day 5. The audio version of one story made no sense. Turns out, it was the story of a gay man who married a randy wench. He catches her lover and it turns out it was a young man he had his eye on. They come to a truce, and they both have their way with him. No one was going to translate that, even in the early 20th century. The depiction of the gay man was ugly, but the story was fun.

In today's exciting news, I just submitted my request for an Amazon return! -- for which the site told me I don't even have to return the item, the refund is on its way back to my card. Mind you, that was nearly ten minutes ago and I haven't received the confirming email. So, we'll see.

Oh. I didn't tell you dear readers what this exciting item is.

Vacuum cleaner bags.

Yes, you read that right. Vacuum cleaner bags. A generic replacement for Sears bags that, in spite of the product number for both the bags and the machine matching up, along with every other element of the description, these are actually about twice the width of the originals. So forget it. I'll pay the damned money for the right product.

In all the years I've been buying from Amazon, I believe this is only the second or third time I've had to request a return or a refund for something.
Title: Re: THE MYSTERY OF THE DISAPPEARING MILES
Post by: ChasSmith on April 28, 2020, 09:31:52 AM
The little devil sitting on my shoulder holding his little pitchfork just whispered a suggestion in my ear:

When I see the credit and get the confirmation that I'm definitely not returning the bags, I should at least try one. Because who knows, maybe it'll cram in there and work just fine. I actually think it probably won't. But we'll see.

None at all. wow.  I saw less today at the market than I have been seeing and nothing I wanted.  I just remembered, there were large sizes of Soft Soap on a side isle.  I suggest asking next time.  Sometimes they will even go in the back and get you one.

I saw something on shaving bar soap and mixing it with water to make liquid soap.  I would think using a bar is just fine, especially if you are the only one using it.

In today's exciting news, I just submitted my request for an Amazon return! -- for which the site told me I don't even have to return the item, the refund is on its way back to my card. Mind you, that was nearly ten minutes ago and I haven't received the confirming email. So, we'll see.

Oh. I didn't tell you dear readers what this exciting item is.

Vacuum cleaner bags.

Yes, you read that right. Vacuum cleaner bags. A generic replacement for Sears bags that, in spite of the product number for both the bags and the machine matching up, along with every other element of the description, these are actually about twice the width of the originals. So forget it. I'll pay the damned money for the right product.

That happened to me last year!  I bought two different sized crank handles for my skylight because I didn't know which size would fit, and they were cheap enough to get two.  One of them fit perfectly, and I went to return the other one (I didn't even open that one, the first one I tried was the one that fit), and I instantly got notice that I would get my refund and I DIDN'T have to return the item.  I even still have it.  That's the only time that I didn't have to actually return something.

The Kritzerland shows have completely balanced piano/vocals, we have total control over that.  This one I didn't - I just sat and sang into the iPhone directly so having watched it just now I can hear what's what but there's no real adjusting it.

Those pieces of wood were from pants hangers with the wires removed.  Anyway, it took me a couple of tries to put up the first light fixture.  I had to take down the first plate and move the whole thing over one inch so that the fixture itself would fit in the alcove.  I did all of that on Sunday.  Today, I put up the second fixture (measuring more carefully) and it all works!  Here's the finished look! :D

Thanks so much for the vibes for mom.  She's ok but we're very mad at the hospital.   They kept her in the emergency room for 6 1/2 hours!   They were treating people with respiratory problems and didn't even give her or my brother a mask ( he has a lot of heart problems).   They knew in the first 2 hours she didn't have any thing fractured and no hematoma and it wasn't her heart or lungs.   They waited all that time to get a UA.   Her caretaker is livid. She's going to monitor her to be sure she doesn't have any problems but to keep her there that long, when she could have gone home and brought in a UA today.

Krista said she found where it happened.  Mom fell in the bathroom and cut open the back of her head.   She had blood everywhere. Krista said it looked like an amateur cleaned up a crime scene.   The hospital didn't even really try to clean the wound or the blood out of the hair. Krista said it was just a big ball of mess.  Anyway, mom is healthy - at least we know that.  Krista gave her a shower and she sounded good when I talked to her today

Okay.  I've only been in one other show where the director wanted the actors to do homework and create backgrounds for their characters.  I'll confess that that kind of homework doesn't really interest me.  I'm only in the songs and the priest that I play at the end only has three lines, so what the heck kind of background can he or "chorus" have? ::) Most of what I'll be doing will be dictated by the choreography and the lyrics of the song.
