Post something good that happened today, Parts Two

[Parts]

  My new can opener is very easy to use, unlike some I've had before. 

What brand and where did you get it?  I have one that I find easy to use that is mounted on the wall but it seems I am the only one who has mastered it,  so I get called to the kitchen every time a can needs to be opened.  It would be nice to have one that my wife and daughter could use with out all the yelling and cursing that occurs when they try the one we have before they call me out to open the can

I found that can openers must be dried while open (gears not touching each other).  Otherwise they don't seem to cut after a while.

I laughed a lot today

Just found some solubility data that until now I've had a lot of trouble finding out for something that needs cleaning up, and it looks like I've finally found out what I needed to know but got no answers to questions posed and everywhere online, the production of the compound is easily found if needed but its almost as if its just assumed implicitly that people know what the result is soluble in.

Now to go and find my lab logbooks and start some testing and taking notes, after going to grab a few cans of different solvents and making measurements before and after washing using my sensitive lab scales (accurate down to 1mg) and after drying off the wash solution, testing  and looking for any weight differentials.

Thinking anhydrous methanol, ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, light naphtha, tetrahydrofuran and dichloromethane to begin with. Just going to take my breakthrough pain meds supplement since I'll be on my feet for a fair while, have a quick smoke before anything flammable comes out, grab my face shield, gloves and goggles, before buggering off with notebooks, pen and jugs of solvent in hand.

I had a DR appointment earlier. And it went completely unlike the previous disaster with the negligent moron and total bitch of a locum, (who didn't even bother to examine an infection, just told me 'oh its fine', got that dealt with, plus finally got a seizure 'rescue pack' issued. More or less an additional lot of doses of the same stuff I use as prevention, but so I've got enough now to actually stop them without leaving me short. That GP saw the sense in it so quickly I hardly finished telling her what I was on about before she'd done it.

 The PR is setting up my new cellphone.  Yea!

(Just a simple pre-paid with Tracfone, who we've been with forever)

Edited to add:  she meant that she would oversee the charging.  I am to set it up myself.

Bug seems to be leaving the building, without getting to me.

Supervising the charging is serious business too.

What kind of phone did you get? Will the setting up be a lot of work?

It's been a year since PA passed away.  I've managed to hold it together and The PR hasn't said anything which is good.  She's focused on a cold (allergy).  If she feels guilty about not remembering what today is I plan on telling her that he's here, there, everywhere, every time.  We just have to call him up in our hearts.

My sister posted the sweetest and most truthful thing about him: 

Louis was a good soul. I miss his laugh the most and the twinkle in his eyes right before he started laughing.

Pardon me while I go have a teary moment.

Curious as well.

I have a manual one, kind of want an electric...but probably going to get another just like it.

Damn thing is easy to turn and has lasted 10 years. It's just starting to fuck up now and then.

I never remember the anniversery of my Dad's death. Couldn't even tell you the date.  I consider dates to be arbitrary and meaningless .
I still recall his birthday, though, more by accident than design, but that's a better way to remember, a better milestone to mark, come to think.

No reason for the PR to feel guilty.  No reason at all.

Thinking of you and PR.

Pizza happened today and that's always a good thing. Found a place that actually delivers to my house (I live in the country) so that was even better!
