Don,

It's pretty much all recall ...

My memory is still fairly decent, although it's gotten a little more fuzzy around the edges in the past few years ...

The one or two areas that I do make notes on are:

1. Shopping lists

2. Stuff (projects) that needs to be done

Half the time I forget to take the shopping lists when I go to the store ... and the project lists seem to accumulate and fall by the wayside before I get everything on them completed ...

I was just looking at some old project lists from a couple of years ago about a week ago ...

There were a number of "Oh yeah ... I forgot about that ..." moments ...

congrats on the acceptance on the home.

I hope you are Irv, and well, my path just improved.
Got an acceptance on the home today after much back and forth; separate from the HOA stuff.
That I have pretty much done for my two submission packages.
So the Fat Lady is warming up. Have the HOA package signoff and the financing signoff and
it should be smooth sailing. Should be...

My younger sister is coming over for dinner tonight with some healthy food I'm sure, and basically to say goodbye for awhile.
am looking forward to that.

and tomorrow the buyer comes over for a little chat, which I told him was not going to happen until he accepted the house.
Russian doctor, some pharma connection, probably biotech. Bringing his family up from Atlanta.
Guess I should buy a bottle of Stoli to put in the fridge along with the champagne...

The house sale is looking good Drew.

rswyan keeps trimming his list of projects. There is something therapeutic about getting the garage and tools in order.

Good luck with your sister, Irv.

I stepped off the tractor today on one of my 100 ons and offs and managed to turn my ankle. Should have been wearing my work boots but I find that's a huge commitment.

Have to see how feels in the morning. Tomorrow may be an I-beam dragging day.

Mid 70's today but still humid. Warm spell (mid-80's) and no rain in the forecast for next week.

Making a list is a good thing. My problem is the list is on my iPhone and I forget to check it.

73 this morning high of 83 later today and more rain or drizzle, sounds like a broken record. There is some talk of a hurricane hitting the east coast but in my readings last night this one will go in the slot up the coast and only bring some big waves. Irv patience but firm with your sister. Good morning

57F headed to mid-70's today.

What's really a show stopper is forgetting my wallet. I've driven most of the way into town a couple times before realizing I don't have it.

Thinking about today's plan while waking up, I might clean the chimney and change the water filter and do a couple hours in the field.

Have a good one.

65 degrees going up to low 80's with rain coming in from the North it appears.
I went out early and turned on the sprinkler system; can't think of a better way to make it rain...
will go turn it off on my second cuppa trip.

going to be emptying my desks this morning and trying to get everything organized so I can find it. Bought a nice clear plastic bin for the important stuff, checks, etc, so I can see what's in there....
also starting to fill my duffel bags with clothes, a few dishes and cutlery items, and whatever I would need until perhaps a week later I can find the right box for things.

buyer is coming at 9:30am for a chat, then the packers come at 10:30.
going to enjoy my piece and quiet and coffee for a little while longer

thanks for the well wishes. One week from now I will be sleeping in my bed in my new home, and boy is it going to be a long week getting there. But the prize is sure worth the work.
