Roscoe's Quick Notes

my micro-blog

Three projects of the day are done and it's barely Noon yet! Go me!

Have broken down the cardboard boxes in the garage and filled the blue recycle bin; have vacuumed up leaves in the back yard and filled the green organics bin; and have fixed the wife her coffee and late breakfast.

Fourth project of the day will be attending 5:00 PM Mass at STM and even if I have to walk over and back that shouldn't be a problem.

That's enough productivity for a Saturday in the Roscoe-verse.

Friday has been easy on me, so far. Had very early text comms with a KofC officer, then lots of R&R. Now i'm working on the presentation I'm supposed to give at Monday's Funeral. I've never done one of these before. Think I'll keep it brief.

So I've just cancelled my Twitter account, active this go around since July of 2021. And I'd even earned the blue check mark status symbol. But I decided it was just a waste of my time, and money: time and money better spent elsewhere.

Two down, one to go. So far today I've: 1.) processed and posted the pictures taken Monday night, and 2.) I've mowed the front yard, letting the grass catcher pick up the leaves that blew down in last week's big wind. That's two chores taken care of. The third will be attending this evening's KofC Council officers meeting which will be a peace of cake for me as I hold a minor office in the Council and won't have to provide much input.

As late afternoon slides into early evening it finds me satisfied with the day's productivity. My weekly laundry, usually done on Monday, was taken care of today. Funds were transferred to the Philippines, and research begun on the presentation I'm expected to give at next Monday morning's Funeral.

The bathroom scales were kind to me this morning, too. I weighed 4 lbs. less this morning than I did yesterday.

Have just tuned into Rose Parade coverage on ABC. I try to watch this every year. Hopefully I won't be chased away from it by excessive “wokeness.” Looking forward to following the Citrus Bowl game after the parade. And this evening will probably find me doing Knights of Columbus 4th Degree Honor Guard work at a Rosary (Wake) at a Catholic Church in town.

So. This is a new year. Doesn't seem markedly different from the old one, yet. However, I am on guard, trying to maintain a high level of situational awareness. And preparing for changes if conditions warrant.

So many exciting Bowl games I've been able to catch this year! There's another one playing now, but I'm watching the Saturday night Svengoolie instead. I must keep my priorities straight. Right?

Lord, help me. Tonight I've been asked to prepare a condolence presentation and deliver it at the Funeral of a mother of a friend of mine. I've never met the lady and her funeral is a week away.

Looking forward to today's Bowl games: the Pinstripe Bowl at 1:00 PM, the Cheez-It Bowl at 4:30 PM, and tonight's Alamo Bowl played here in San Antonio.

Looking forward to 2023 and replacing the tried and true Franklin/Covey paper planner system that I've used for decades with something new.

Looking forward...
