Note seen on a work cart at my job:
If you quit now you will be back where you started. When you were there you would have given anything to be where you are now.

of really nice pictures of President Obama. Not sure this will work. Try arrowing to the right to see the rest of the pics. Guess it didn’t work. Hmmm. I could steal a pic and repost it but I’d rather you could see them all. I’m sure it won’t work this time either.

A sailboat I’m thinking of buying.

More about it here.

Plus I stole the boat from Neogy Titwhistle

So anyway.

Today was Tuesday. I did very little. I played on the net. I ate. I honestly can’t think of anything else I did. Except take Jim over to rented ground to pick up the pickup. Gracie went with us. She gets very nervous riding in the car.

It’s gotten hot again. The fan is running, throwing a breeze across the kitchen floor.

I bought some sea salt lime corn chips the other day. At first they were awful… but then as they aged a bit and I got used to them, they aren’t so bad.

I got my overdue library books ready to take to the local library but I didn’t take them in. The ones from the college town library are even more overdue and I do not have them corralled yet. Oh I cooked Italian sausage and potatoes for lunch.

Two daily papers came today because yesterday was a holiday, but I haven’t looked at either of them. There was a new New York in the mail too and I looked at that a bit but didn’t get all the way through it. There is a feature on views from various apartments in NYC. Also bitty articles on prolific authors, actors and movie producers. It said Stephen King has sold 550 million books and is estimated to be worth $400 million. King recently spoke to a crowd in Iowa City and charmed them with his regular guy-ness.

I have a few pictures.

Of my foot and a birdsfoot trefoil along the gravel road.

Of the coleus on the porch. I might have shown this already. If I have I am sorry.

Of the wall of old tin shed with its rusty saw blades on display. Those are very tall nettle plants.

And here are clovers growing in grass.

I took all these pictures the same foggy morning as the famed mailbox photo.
