Sunday early afternoon finds me following the Yankees / Blue Jays game, and feeling very stuffed! Yes, I've eaten way too much already today! Glad there's alka-seltzer in the house!

TGIF! This has been a good week, all things considered. Mowed most of the back yard this morning. After what I got done yesterday and today, the only things that remain back there are two strips only visible from the alley. There's no hurry taking care of that; later this month sometime will be fine.

Home Internet was down for ~ 5 hrs. in the middle of the day. But it's back up now. Got all my CC moves sent, listening now to the Rangers vs Astros game.

Early Wednesday evening finds me listening to relaxing music over one of the many You Tube channels devoted to that.

This has been a recovery day. Yesterday was the 1st in maybe a year that I was able to mow and trim the entire front yard in one day. And that really wore me out. Shoot, it wasn't that many years ago I could mow both the front and back yard, even the alley behind the fence, and do it all easily in one day. Hopefully I'll be able to get some back yard work done tomorrow.

I won this Correspondence Chess game this afternoon when I caught the White King in a Queen-Rook Combination checkmate.

Unexpected change of plans. This being April 1, I shouldn't be surprised.

I'd set three chores for the day, and was able to do two of them: did my weekly laundry, and activated a new bank Master Card. The third chore, mowing behind the back fence, will have to wait another day or so. The wife is ill and I want to stay close to her, so I'm inside, across the hall from her room through the afternoon and evening.
