The breakfast is all carbs —danishes and pineapple. So, I guess I‘m starving until lunch. Also, no tea or decaf coffee. Plus, the water tastes metallic.

Gee, it’s going to be fun.

Do you ever carry little bags of nuts or something in case you need balanced food?

And the section of John Waters’ book I listened to on the way here was all complaining. So, I am ready.

Please pass the danish and the pineapple.

And I'll have some more coffee, please.

Thanks.

Saw two almost accidents on the way to this seminar. One was an exceptionally long car that jackknifed in front of me.

Yikes!! :o

Back from doing what needed doing, and picking up some packages.  I had two tuna sandwiches for the meal o' the day.

Really hot out.  Happily, I let the air run while I was out, so it was nice and chilly when I got back, so I turned it off.  Now, it's hot again.

As soon as the hearings were over, I fed the cats and walked to the bank.  On my return, my front door key to the building wouldn't work so I buzzed my neighbor to ring me in.  That didn't work, so she came down, and the door wouldn't open from the inside.  I was looking for a brick or large rock to throw through the glass when a neighbor in 1D arrived.  She had her cell phone so she called the landlord to let them know we were locked out.  We waited nearly thirty minutes when a neighbor inside the building, trying to get outside, grabbed the door handle and pulled hard.  The door opened, and I jammed some tissue into the lock so it will not lock again. 45 minutes out of my life I will never get back.   Thank God it's a nice day.

I'm a little tired right now.  I think I'll watch some Highway Patrol, then continue some work I was doing.

Thank goodness for the nice day.  I hope the lock is fixed before you leave again.

I thought the motor car might need some water, so I located what I thought was that, opened it and put some in, only to be told by Grant that's where the oil goes.  Oops.  Hopefully I haven't done damage.  It made a squeak noise when I started it up, but I've started it several times since and it's fine.  I'll take it to a place tomorrow to have new oil put in, just in case.

Training was long and dull, largely because I had some a similar day of exercises last year with another team. This year, the training is two days, not one.

I've started watching the movie Us and I'm liking it, but I'm not in the mood for a horror film. So, I guess I picked wrong for the night.
