Sunday is supposed to be a day of rest, and I have certainly fulfilled that obligation. The only positive thing I've done is recharge the lithium batteries to be used in my weed-eater and leaf blower tomorrow, or whenever I use them next.
I've kept up on all my daily prayers, and moved in all pending CC games, listened to this afternoon's Texas Rangers game, and have found a Firefly marathon on Comet TV. But work? nope. not today.

Two major chores accomplished, and that's enough for a Saturday. Fixed the paper jam in my printer; the fixing of it was pretty easy, but figuring out how to do it took several hours last night and again this morning. And organized the back porch, making room for our new two-burner propane stove.
Relaxing now to baseball on the radio.

Grrr... trying to free up a paper jam in my HP printer and really needing needle-nosed pliers. Only I don't have any at hand. Wonder if the wife has such a tool in her sewing machine gear. She's at Bingo tonight. I'll have to ask her in the morning.

I won this Correspondence Chess game a few minutes ago with a Queen-Knight Combination Checkmate.

Later this afternoon, Sylvia and I are being taken out to a Texas Roadhouse for an early dinner. I've been looking over their online menu and ... drooling. :)

Midday Tuesday and all is well in the Roscoe-verse. This morning I cut away a big, deformed toenail that has become increasingly bothersome in recent years. Now I can walk MUCH easier!

This afternoon I received an automated reminder call from a doctor's office about an appointment I supposedly have with him later this week. Only thing is, I DON'T have any appointment with him at all. I tried calling his office back at the number they left for me and got stuck in an endless loop of automated messages. Grr...! I'll try calling back tomorrow morning.

Happy Fathers Day to all the dads out there.
Mine died decades ago. Favorite memories with him include throwing the baseball and shooting basketball hoops in the back yard when I was a boy.

I won this correspondence chess game today with a Bishop-Bishop Combination Checkmate. The C6- Bishop delivers the mating move, while my H4-Bishop covers the Black King's only possible flight squares.
