5.238 checkin it off

Friday 07/26/2024

Over the past couple days I’d accumulated quite the list of to-dos, mostly little crap, which I scribbled (and I do mean scribbled, look at it) on a pad. Today was otherwise uncommitted so after a nice morning walk I set to and checked shit off.

“Jade repot” — About a year ago I got a 2-inch tall jade plant in a tiny pot. I put it in a bigger pot, and then a bigger pot, and today I moved the two-foot tall multi-branched jade tree into an even bigger pot. It was totally root-bound and hard to get out of the old pot. “Sound bar” — for some reason the tv had stopped sending sound through the sound bar. I rebooted the sound bar and the tv and it was all good again. “Bridge pics” — printed up a couple more Thames Bridge pics and updated my gallery in the hall.

So it went for a satisfying day. Ignoring the Olympics. Actually the rerun of the opening ceremony is showing now, with the sound off. Nice images.

At dinner I sat at a community table with, among others, Dr. Larry Basso. He had a fall recently and has a large bruise on his face, but is in good spirits and has all his wits about him. He told a wild story about how his parents emigrated from Italy meaning to come to New York, but pretty much by accident ended up going to San Francisco instead.
