• The people from our round-the-corner computer repair place came and got my IMac this morning. It has to be a problem with the IMac since all the other computers in the house pick up the signal… At the moment, I am using my little white MacBook.
• Somewhere between 1 pm and 4 pm, someone is supposed to come by and inspect the furnace. Our landlord came by to give me a couple of filters. He also said he had to order the ceiling tiles to replace the ones that got wet. He said it will be about a week…
• After that, I am going to drive into Burlington to see Fred. He isn’t expecting me so if I don’t feel up to it, I can stay home.
• Actually, I am feeling pretty good. Probably due to the more-than-usual cups of coffee I have had today.
• Fred prefers a mouse so since I am using the laptop he has been using, I have to use a mouse. My choice is a track ball.
• I was up again in the small hours –specifically 3 pm, but I did go back to bed and managed to sleep from 4 am to 7:30 am.
• I know you are going to find this hard to believe, but I have lost my cell phone yet AGAIN! The last time I remember having it was yesterday and it was in the back pocket of my jeans. I have been calling it but no where do I hear the Hallejulia Chorus! And now, of course, it is going to voice mail…

Creativity is inventing, experimenting, growing, taking risks,

breaking rules, making mistakes, and having fun.

— Mary Lou Cook

"We are taught you must blame your father, your sisters, your brothers, the school, the teachers – but never blame yourself. It’s never your fault. But it’s always your fault, because if you wanted to change you’re the one who has got to change." — Katherine Hepburn

You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes.

You can steer yourself in any direction you choose.

You’re on your own. And you know what you know.

You are the guy who’ll decide where to go. ~ Dr. Seuss
