Up at 7, read scattered email of slight importance, seek cats for solace, find cats, get coffee, play a game of chess with some unknown player who beat me soundly. I'm brilliant, then stupid at chess. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE "The Game". Played it since I was a mere enfant (French for "child"). Highest I ever got was mid 1700's...then I fell off and back, apparently not soon to rise to that lofty place of True Heroes. Now I struggle, especially at my end game play. Stupidity reigns supreme.
I study chess problems and mostly figure them out...takes a bit longer these days. Stupidity takes a much shorter time.
Off to Lowe's this am to get downspout parts, a couple of plugs for the now open ends of the new gutters and the guards to keep out leaves and such. We have a plethora of trees about, oaks, ficus, beech etc. All drop copious amounts of leaves, especially now in the fall. Back...I painted the fascia and placed a hanger, ripped off a section around the western side so I could get a downspout in that location before the rains come and slow my progress to a standstill.
Then on the gold coat I photographed yesterday for the eBay business I could not locate the bloody mfr. label. Kelly saw that in the photos when she looked through them in prep to put the item on for sale and I went upstairs to photo the label and move it to our server. A busy guy IU am...and now I'm about to debone a chicken, make stuffing and BBQ it. How 'bout that!
Bye for now, I'm trying after all...
