From the get go Steve said that was a spider bite on my back.  I just could not wrap my brain around the horrific thought of spider(s) in my bed.  Couldn’t do it.  One night this weekend I swear I woke up a dozen times brushing some crawly thing off me, but I just figured Brother’s Family’s wood tick tales were influencing my dreams.  Last night as I was crawling into bed I noticed a big black spider on the wall above my headboard.  While that particular critter will bother me no more, I can’t help but wonder if (s)he has family or friends nearby.  A Software Consultant has spent the day at my office. 

I’m having trouble with pain in my right hand.  My theory:  The new software’s increased use of mouse clicks over ten key data entry.  My solution:  Alternate between my beloved Trackball Explorer and a conventional Mouse.

I have a bit of “Creeping Crud” between the third and fourth fingers of both hands.  The right hand is a tad worse.  The symmetry is typical.

The dogs are walked.  The garden is weeded and weaseled, I’m trying to decide if I should water as at times it looks like it might rain.  Mr.B planted the blueberry bushes.  Avery will be thrilled!  Eventually, anyway.  We discussed sticking purchased blueberries on the bare sticks to give her some understanding.  Alicia’s graduation party. 

Small as they are, the whitecaps on my bay make kayaking a no-no.  I’m hoping this wind settles down later and perhaps we can all get out in the canoe.  It’s so windy on the deck, the bubbles blow themselves!

When I checked my WebCam at lunchtime I saw Mr.B mowing my grass!  I absolutely HATE shopping.  And, now, even more so.  Not only were the Swans not in the store, but I can’t for the life of me find a metal Winnie the Pooh mug!  I must admit my normal online sources have failed me as well on the Winnie the Pooh mug.  Bah!!!  On a happier note:  I’m grateful all these storms have not made good on their threats.

Hair cut!  There was some discussion about gardening and lawn mowing tonight, but it’s not that nice out so I’m thinking laundry is a better idea.  I started putzing with the WebCam.  Actually got it up and running.  Temporary link above, permanent(?) link in the list at right.

No sign of Geese this morning.  Yay!

Goose invasion!  Damn.  I was happy to find no geese on the lawn when I got home this afternoon.  I’ve not walked down there yet to see if they’ve been and gone.  Our first round of golf!  Lakeview Golf Course.  Nine holes and too many strokes to count.  BUT!  I started AND finished with the same ball!
