Oops ! We have a miserable looking view

 longjohns ? OMG  

Wind howling away-   shakey ,shakey.for sure 

I'm trying the cursive feature - write on the tablet w/ a stylus

"Learning is slow and painful. Just discovered., my finger is better by far

the translator does not care about the size of the script that it sees 

and capital letters. Come after periods mostly

and options Pop up in the bar above

why are you doing this?

Dunno 

Back to the keyboard, a tad easier
You see, the handwriting on the tablet was supposed to be more creative. Spontaneous, effervescent

Nooooo. slow and sloppy. A long learning curve

Under the topic - what did you do today
1. Dug out weeds but more importantly filled the holes        where weeds came out < yes, hole > and added grass      seed. Weather should help as rain is predicted for 3 days.
This action is cosmetic. The weeds grow like topsy and are everywhere. But optics are important. The neighbour see me trying.

2. Slipper repair. The plastic sole split across the ball of     the sole and I appled cabinetmakers glue and                   weighted the inside of the slipper. 24 h and we will see. Of course, the plastic flexes and the trick is will the glue harden and flex as well. Likely not. But try is all you can do
' when you get caught between the moon and NY city '

3. A follow up from yesterday. A fisherman s tackle box     is as personal as a fingerprint. However, the one               guarantee is that it is chock a  block w/ bits. These bits are useful, fanciful but plentiful.
On YouTube, I watched    " getting started in bass fishing ".
Vol 1. What you need < notice ' NEED ' >. I thought ' why not ' at least go back and see what is bare minimum.
The guy was informative. Hooks, size 3 / 0 and 4 / 0.

I checked. Yes. 3 and 4 s. However, there were 5 / 0 < huge > and 2 / 0 and 1 / 0 and size #1 < smaller >. To streamline, I kept the 3 and 4s and some 5 s but essentially condemned a fistful of hooks to the alternative storage < are they travelling ? Don't know yet. >

For weights, he suggested bullet weights < hole through the middle > but I tossed in some split shot, b/c you never know. If one thing gets your tackle box full - its you never know. And ' never ' is the operative word

For lures, he trimmed it down to plastic worms - simple ones called ' trick worms '. The plastic lures < that go onto the hooks > are useful, fanciful and plentiful. In overall thinking, the trick worm is middle length and middle thickness. I found different size worms, frogs, lizards, grubs and minnows. Trick worms. A few. No, a bunch but not near the top < had to dig them out >. The rest gets consigned to alternative storage. But you never know !

For colour. Despite useful, fanciful and plentiful, he recommended pumpkin and black. Yes. the blues and reds and greens and pinks and sparkly silver got sent to alternative storage < you never know >

Note. The tackle boxes look empty. And the weight is down by 1/2.

For jigs. My primary fishing method. He got me down to 1 / 8 oz and 1 / 4 oz. Let me tell you, a whole lot of lead got re - assigned.

Spinners. Only 3 got to stay. The rest were 2 to 3 times the size of the mini and small ones.

Next is rods and reels
