Did some ruthless culling of small odd bits of lumber in the Community Theatre basement workshop to make space for more stuff or people!   :P

Hopped on a plane to Edinburgh, picked up a rental and drove on the left side of the road for the first time in years.

Put a TV on its stand, found 3 things that it needs. - remote, HDMI cable and wireless receiver.  I'll probably find the electric cords tomorrow.  I'm cleaning out my room.

Can't you guys even just imagine it?

Forget practicality, or your experience....can you just....imagine?

It's there. It always was.

Didn't find "the" electric cord, but I found one that worked.  Guess I'm showing my age.  The popular name is power cord.

Had you used the right term, I would have imagined a work-out device, and not a cord to feed the TV with electricity.
I can do upside down chocolate moo things!

Went shopping with the ladies. Necessary shopping. And we managed to get through without making it an ordeal. Even when we skipped getting ourselves some ice-cream or other treat.
Spent a lot of money, but it all is well spent.

Now I have to go hunting for shoes and clothes for myself one day, but that can wait a bit more.

Rode my bicycle for the first time this summer to bring Carla her coffee at work!  It felt great!

grumbled at slow internet and got on here because this works but work doesn't. read enough posts to think about eating ice cream and my still undelivered bicycle.

Walked the dog, completed a game and got through a few more episodes of Battlestar Galatica on Netflix.

I still use "tv dinner".  Thankfully that doesn't mean I'll eat the TV or feed it. :apondering:

Went for a long sightseeing tour around Scotland, from Aviemore to Fort Williams to Inverness along Loch Ness, and finally back to Aviemore. Pretty awesome.
