Well, you've read the notes, the notes were frustrating and had fireworks, and now it is time for you to post until the frustrated cows come home.

And the word of the day is: SAMARATAN!

Today, the whole family is getting together at my parents' house to celebrate my mom's birthday, which is on Tuesday. We'll have the leftover taco stuff, which is fine by me. It was all quite good!

Yesterday, my sister and her daughter didn't come over, but my mom's friend Mona and her neighbor Dee were there. Evidently, they and my dad have been playing Phase 10 quite regularly for quite a while now. I've only been going over for the last several weeks because I wasn't working, but because I am now, I'll leave early on next Friday to join them again. Fortunately, I have more vacation time than I normally should, and there's not a lot of work, so I can take the time off and not have to worry about making it up.

And now, I need to get some sleep. Before I go to my parents' today, I need to go some place to get some eye hooks to hang up a string of decorative light bulbs that are a birthday gift for my mom.

Also, today is the 22nd anniversary of the day that I bought my car! I need to get it serviced (fairly soon), but it still runs pretty well!

Good night, and have a good day, all!

HAPPY FLAG DAY!

I wanted to be the first to extend greetings.

Does anyone still celebrate Flag Day?

Guess I'll go get some sleep. Three hours ago I began working my way through a humungous eighty-six CD set (in original jackets) of Charles Munch, one of my favorite conductors. Daunting, but what music. As always, I'm most impressed with the early mono albums - such wonderful performances, and as with a few other great conductors, he makes me at least appreciate music that I normally don't. Here in mono is an especially good Beethoven seventh. That has one movement that I actually love. And there was a Mozart piano concerto that was fun. So, for me the pieces I know and love are great, but this is a learning experience as there's a ton of music in this set I've never heard. Now playing, a magnificent Brahms fourth - in brilliant mono sound.

It seems like it was more of a holiday in the 50’s and 60’s than it is today.

TCB · « **Reply #12 on:** June 14, 2020, 03:08:22 AM »

It is after three o’clock and I am still awake (and so is BK).

I injured my foot doing laundry on Friday, so I'm trying to stay off my feet as much as possible for the next few days.

I must pay some bills this morning.

I've been listening to Mozart masses while I finished kitty cleanup. I need to make the bed. In an hour I need to call Suad with my unemployment.

With or without a hat?

Flag Day!

Usually if I think something is too long to read, I skip to the bottom and read the SAMARATAN.

It sounds like everyone had a nice day yesterday.

Weatherwise we are expected to have another beautiful day.

I enjoyed reading about DR VIXMOM's activities and DR JOHN and DR GEORGE's days.....

And everyone including DR TCB who thought about going to B/R.

I have a list of donors to our 2020 season at Putnam County Playhouse - a list that is usually published in our programs.

Mr. President wanted the list on the website. He had sent it to me as a WORD file.....I converted the pages to Jpegs.....and added them to a story on the website.

Then I used the Jpegs to create a slideshow to put on the Box Office Page of the website - so that it will still be there when the story falls off the front page....

And if that SOUNDS boring - you can imagine what it was like doing it!

NO FRUSTRATION SUNDAY vibes for MR BK.

I got back from my walk about a half hour ago. Now I am air frying some acorn squash. Acorn squash has been in every one of my vegetable boxes for the last couple of months. I have so many acorn squashes. No one in my family will eat any kind of squash.

Just so you know:

With the emotional moon in insistent Aries sextiling love-focused Venus retrograde today, it’s the perfect time to look within to find the answers you’ve been searching for. Although it might be tempting to blame others for what you’re currently going through in your love life, this inward energy asks you to examine your own feelings before looking anywhere else.

Remember that when dealing with retrograde planets, the changes always start from within. You’re being asked to reveal some truths about yourself today, and the results can be extremely rewarding. Deepening an existing relationship or finding true love are possible when you’re willing to open up and be honest with yourself.

Unemployment taken care of. I think I will lie down for a bit and maybe nap. At noon there's a PBS broadcast of Händel's Aggrippina from the Met, but I think I will pass it up.
