something like Olivia or Post # 2924

is a song by John Mayer - American singer & songwriter

why bring this up ? well , I like the song
And I can segue into YouTube. Dislike the ads and there are more of them. However, what an opportunity for me to sample items such as music and interest pieces - that I cannot imagine running across any other way.
Coincidentally, John Mayer is a typewriter affecianado who does a segment in ' American Typewriter ', a documentary on the survival and revival of the typewriter. As is Tom Hanks

Well, 4:30 arrived and I was awake - yes, coffee and a toast and honey < sprinkle on cinammon > ........ and typing to the void. Actually, ' word processing ' to the void b/c affecianado s as in American Typewriter maintain typing is done on a typewriter 
' you're bound to meet her like from time to time '

Lee Valley continued. Coat wall hangars come to mind. These variable angle hangars are screwed to the wall but have several angles to reduce their footprint. In tight spaces you can drop them down slightly to clear space - or alternately make them flat to the wall. Now, I bought 4 and have used 2 < yes, 2 sit a cupboard and I'm convinced that I'll need them, ????? >

The whole point to the Lee Valley project here at the blog was to re - inventory items and call to mind some gem that is sitting in a cupboard. Ultimately, I'm guessing one item < 2 ?  3 ? > will be crowned least used Lee Valley purchase.

OK, what comes close. Stencils, big sale at 1/2 off the regular price. Many shapes : stars, squiggles etc and used once that I can recall. BUT you never know. I make M s Christmas cards, Valentine s Day card and Birthday card - yes, some 25 years now. And there is a supply of stencils for letters, sparkles, blank stock and more. Ah ha ! stencils don't sound so silly, huh ? ............
and many of those supplies are used for fishing lures as well.

Lets try to sleep. 

Not very much.

Day is freeze your face off cold. Speaking of inside activities. Today s hot event was waiting for the Amazon delivery. Wednesday night the alarm shrieked to life We cancelled and all that. 

The dislplay read ' toolroom left side window low battery '. OK batteries wear out but the system got installed Jan 5 or 23 days earlier. Called the company and yes that is not reasonable. ' We'll credit you for new battreies. ' At Walmart, the battery costs $ 15 or / Amazon sells them 4 / $ 17.

Ah, under 25 dollars there is shipping charges. I had seen T shirts and was waiting - well, add the T shirts and DONE. The order was due today. Thus, we watched the camera feed and listened.

The excitement was building < promised for Sat before 10 PM > then a scratch at the door and the neighbour s dog   < kidding > parcels were there on the camera feed.
What are lives have become - lets wait for the delivery !!

Battery got installed and all systems green. Plus, 3 more batteries in stock. Betcha, though when the next battery dies, probalby 4 more go dead at the same time.

We shall see said the Zen Master
