🏪 14 th in VII

  🏪  .. yes, the month creeping along til, today, month half gone or half still to come
Last night, we picked up Kentucky Fried rat and french fries, in c.f. my air potatoes are good

in the window seat observing the ' boro, Eternal Blue and sun and hot

typing and ochazuke w/ coffee in the thermos

the heat peaks today

fiddling around. means creating a prop for the laptop. C 14+ is a larger baby than the others.  C 14+ is fanless and dissipates heat by radiation, therefore I figured if possible tilt the C14+ getting the bottom off the table [ better angle for the keyboard as well ]. Til this morning, I was using a thin flat strapping board to do this. But instead, I turned the board on its side and braced the board [ now the taller edge is raising the back of C 14+, even higher ]

As well, A .. gifted me w / a Chinese knock off baitcaster [ $ 10 Cdn ]. Well, to get it fit the lock mechanistic on the rod, I bent the cast lip of the reel. Yes, its cracked [ a bit ], so, this morning I gorilla taped the reel on further. Very Red neck sort of repair. BUT if it helps - good

🌋 hot time ..... Jul 13

  🌋... not today but coming to a region near you ....

... there'll be a hot time, Santiago tonight ..... [ re worked lyrics from, ' There 'll Be a Hot Time in the Old Town Tonight ' for the Spanish American War ]
yes, we are on the cusp ....
 ' boro view, high Eternal Blue and sun, very humid as the heat preps for a three day run

our schedule shows an appointment this aft. OK. Typing and coffee [ M ... made it early ] however, rice is cooking, And ochazuke did not disappoint

we are in pending mode. awaiting this appt in the aft. A non exercise day and fiddling w / chores. The spare FOB for the truck failed to work, two weeks ago, yepper, finally, replaced the battery and tested fob.
Gathering clobber for the run up to the Q ' e.g. the towel that I borrowed, three weeks ago. Wisdom would say, take your own this time. Added the fillet glove [ steel mesh, anti cut] and new fishing line.

  

🌅 .... window on the ' boro

    🌅....... the Eternal Blue tinged w / white and full sun in the view
the window seat, ochazuke and typing

excitement was formed by England v Norway, and the Three Lions victorious. Not Easy but done

expecting raving heat in 36 h. thus, today should be a quick run to the Giant Tiger

follow up, did get coffee. but the tea / rice is so comforting, as hydration and easy to digest meal.

Tiger news. Cinammon buns, not on anyone s diet but M .. covets them. Plastic garbage bags, coleslaw, rinse aid for the dishwasher [ vinegar w/ food colour ] and bananas

Yes. hot and revving up for the week, it seems. In spite of that, we have a fishing run planned. The boat hasn't run yet, this year. Always, a question mark. And the boat euqipment is all over.
Safety especially.

exercise accomplished. AND I forgot my weight was # 174.4 on Saturday. Holding the line so to speak. Best part is that I am not suffering or deprived

🕯XI of VII Julius, n'est pas

  🕯' boro, now, Eternal Blue and sun. looking very crisp out there
typing ans coffee [ two days old ] the new stuff is burbling out there

the neighbour cleaning lady [ must be a nicer way of describing the arrangement - helper - yes, our neighbour helper ] is coming again.

On the pain control front. Using a cream on the knee. today, a massage and cream on the thigh - result is much lessened pain or discomfort. a tad of disbelief really but if it works . ....... Bonus !

our neighbourhood helper arrived and is on bathroom duty

follow up. we've dropped the monthly cleaning service and will go w / helper system. obviously, a trial and see process

🏭 tent of the VII

  🏭 ........ in the window seat, coffee and typing w / ochazuke steeping

patchy blue and sun. Thursday is getting the recycling out to the curb and Friday is waiting for the pick up process

ochazuke it is. satisfying.
I thought it best to note or mention, chores accomplished, to wit :
register the C14+ w / parent Co., Lenovo. Since I registered, the Duet [ laptop and Tablet ], I was in the Lenovo system.
As an ongoing preventative step, I sprayed Ant B Gon at the patio door entrance to the deck off the kitchen. 

exercise was scheduled, and despite some thoughts of problems, the numbers matched those of the Jul 6 session. Coughed a bit, otherwsise - all went smoothly

lunch was potato chips to finish the evil things - all gone. And soup from broth and leftover Chinese.

 

⛵ 26 / 07 - 9

  ⛵... hello in the  'boro on a sunny morn showing the Eternal Blue [ slight haze up there ]

typing and tea steeping [ soon to be ochazuke ] coffee is on as well
tummy warming start to the day, tea and rice

a lazy morning [ more than most ?  uhm, NO ]

on the agenda. a trip out for some needs, lean ground beef   [ smash burgers coming up, tonight ], Shoppers for M ... s scrips and gift bags from Dollarama and envelopes

shopping over amid the three downpours between 10:15 A and 11:30

reporting. the cold / cough episode seems to be waning. Phlegm in chest, for sure.

However, feel able to do things

🪃 eight and VII in the ....

  🪃 ..... ' boro. Ochazuke and typing.

sunny, going for fairly warm to hot. quiet out there. And I was late getting up.
fighting this cold / cough affliction.
Trying to lay off the cold / cough tablets, the stuff dries out my mucous membranes. Not particularly healthy to stay on the drying out meds too long.

I am feeling better w / the cough hanging on still.

I did take Robaxacet / Acetaminophen tablet, thru the day . And fairly sure, I will try the 12 h night tablet, so, I can sleep thru
