Semi-productive day
I had to be up sort of early this morning to drive Cowboy to the vet to have his grungy old teeth cleaned, so I thought, "Great! It will be a jolly productive day and I will get a lot done!"
Except instead I remembered I needed to upgrade the insulation by the window-mounted air conditioner (that is to say, slap a bunch more tape on top of the old and no longer sticky tape only halfway holding in the plexiglass filler in the top half of the window). It is now officially fall here on the High Plains, the season being traditionally ushered in by a day or two of continual wind in excess of 30 mph. Except today the wind feels like it's about 3 degrees, which explains why double layers of EVERYTHING wasn't helping me stay warm.
But now the job is all done. I am going to eat me some nice homemade beef vegetable soup and then go fetch Cowboy home, and maybe this afternoon I will get to do some of the online stuff I've been looking forward to.
We'll see.
