It's a scorcher out there today! We're beating the heat by cooking up a rack of chinese spareribs in the slow cooker, drinking lemonade from scratch, and mostly staying in air conditioning. We took a short walk in the 'hood to play with some TTV.
I've been sitting on the sofa all afternoon doing nothing much😳
The one in my left hand only turns the tv on now; the one in my right hand does all the channel selection etc.
All you people in TV land,
I will wake up your empty shells,
Peak-time viewing blown in a flash
As I burn into your memory cells
- Peter Gabriel, "Family Snapshot"
I spent ALL day today packing up and readying for the move. by about 4pm I was so exhausted I collapsed onto a small patch of space on the couch and dozed off.
I'll have to clean off the couch more, because I'm sleeping there tonight. This morning, I took my bed apart so that I could use the bedroom to stack all the boxes as I pack them. The bookcase is pretty much all done; next up is the kitchen. Then it's clothing and piffle--which will surely take up a ton of boxes, though.
Yarn is going in each box as packing padding. Someone remind me of this when I go to cut the boxes open!!
I stupidly tried to pry a lid off with a butter knife. It slipped and really gouged my index finger. There was a lot of blood and I don't even want to know how deep it goes. Waaaahhh!!!!!!!
How to decide? There are too many yummy baked leftovers from the party. (And I have always been a believer in sweets for breakfast; in fact, back in Philly the ex and I would sometimes look at each other and say "we need some breakfast food in the house for the coming week; let's make some brownies.")
Oh, and for my 365, knitters and crafters buds: it's pretty pathetic, but this is my bed head. long straight hair just doesn't really do anything at night.

Just a small selection of the many remote controls we use at home let alone all the redundant ones gathering dust in various drawers.
I just do not want to think about ancient mobile phones!!!
CD's even hundreds of 45 rpm discs, LP's by the score.
I was flying the remote control plane while a friend shot this picture. I like how it looks with the mountain as a backdrop. It could be a scene from the 1940's. The plane is a "Waco" and it flies well.
Sometimes what was unthinkable yesterday is tomorrow’s reality. So now it is time to consider a roadmap to unmanned vessels of various types.
I couldn't believe it when the editor in chief told me that my hat had been picked for the cover. It was even in contention?! www.pepperknit.com/2014/07/cover-girl/

We were given a toning exercise 'White on White' in our Masters Apprentice classes for photographers. This is just one of the many photos taken by yours truly.
Different lighting, angles, you name it. I tried the lot last night.
What do you do when you cannot locate white eggs anymore?...... you paint them....eggs & crate with undercoat paint!
Of course I could have chosen any white object for this exercise, but I had a hankering to do this.
Now I just hope this is right. If I rightly recollect from the lecture there was not to be any pure black nor pure white.
