Relaxing to this afternoon's Yankees game. About an hour and a half from now I'll start getting ready for this evening's Knights of Columbus Honor Guard work at St. Luke's. Frank will be giving me a ride and he said to be ready by 5:30.

So. Calmly and steadily I've moved through this Monday's three main chores. Got my weeek's laundry all done, printed out a map and directions to the Church where I'll be doing Honor Guard work tomorrow, and printed out 30 copies of my Assembly's October newsletter for our meeting next week.
Took two short cat naps this afternoon, surely that helped.
Tonight I may follow the NFL's Monday Night Football game on my new NFL+ app. If I can make it trough the first half before getting ready for bed, that'll be as far as I usually make it.

When I was up, sort of, during an insomnia break in the very early hours of this morning, I set three chores for myself to accomplish during this day. I think I've taken care of two of them. But for the life of me I can't remember what that third chore was. /sigh.

Two of the day's three big chores went well. And I'm confident the third will go well, too.
Cut my hair early this morning, really needed it. Attended the public Rosary at the Grotto in front of the Rectory. Dave had me lead the prayers of the Third Mystery. In about an hour or so I'll head over to the Church where I'll be Lector for the Evening Mass.

A busy, productive day, spent entirely at home.
Showed Sylvia how to work the new TV game console, but she was really tired and I don't think she paid much attention.
Built and posted an October Newsletter for my KofC Assembly. Talked with another KofC officer who had trouble posting pictures to the GG, explained his mistake to him, and posted the photos for him.
After listening to a post-season MLB game, I'm now listening to College Football. Had to reactivate my TuneIn Premium membership to get it. That'll be a $10.00 / mo. PayPal charge. Oh well,...

I am determined to make the best of this day that I possibly can!

Rather disappointing. That window of time wherein I have both energy and mental acuity needed to “get things done” is sliding closed. And there remains work I wanted to do. Oh, well. Tomorrow, perhaps.
Twenty-five minutes from now there'll be today's episode of Wheel of Fortune to watch. And after that I'll have Thursday Night Football, so I'll be awake for a good little bit and mildly entertained. But that won't really be time productively spent.

Few things relax me as much as listening to the radio call of a baseball game. Tonight's Phillies / Braves game, now moving into the bottom of the 5th inning and still scoreless after a long rain delay, is really easing my mind. Hopefully this will help me find a better night's sleep tonight than last night.

“Not a recession, a real depression.” Listening to an economist discuss our country's economic and financial situation this morning on Steve Bannon's War Room Show, I heard him make the very good case that despite the denials by the White House, we are not merely in an economic recession but we are deep into a very real depression.

Insomnia break now two and a half hours long and shows no sign of abating. If it lasts much longer I'll just fix some coffee and call it an early morning. My first alarm is only two hours away anyway.
