Darned toothache. It's occupying too darned much of my attention. I knew I was doing too much eating this weekend. The only thing to do now is to medicate that part of my mouth as best I can and return to eating sparingly and carefully. That what I did the last time this happened. It worked then and it'll work again.

A productive and very full Sunday, this. And that in spite of waking much later than normal.
Actually got some yard work done for the 1st time in weeks. Filled the green organics bin with cut branches from the back yard.
Sorted and mostly disposed of a pile of correspondence that has been accumulating back here for... heck of a long time. And I followed more Sunday NFL games than I usually do.

A good Saturday is underway. Much of the morning has been spent exploring ways to break out of debt cycle that has been forced on me (and on most Americans, but I'm mostly concerned about me) due to heavy credit card use, high interest rate loans, and constantly rising inflation. Learning about new alternatives is improving my outlook.
Listening to the IU Hoosiers vs Nebraska Cornhuskers College Football Game now. Go Hoosiers!

A nice quiet Friday is winding down with ESPN Radio bringing me the NLCS Game between the Mets and the Dodgers. After this game I may stick with baseball to follow the Yankees and Guardians in their ALCS Game that comes on later, or I may switch over to college football. That's a decision to be made later.

At ~09:30 this morning the home Internet went down in my neighborhood. At that time my ISP predicted the outage would last approx. 8 hours. Luckily they were able to bring us back online by ~12:30, so only 3 hours of actual downtime.
As I'm mostly a radio guy anyway, and a reader, this gave me a chance to put on a good music station and get some reading done. It turned out to be a pretty good morning for me, actually.
This evening I plan to follow some live college football. Of course, there's also the option of NFL's Thursday Night Football, but the college games appeal to me more.

After a quiet day I'm relaxing my way through the evening listening to live college football, Western Kentucky University Hilltoppers vs Sam Houston State Bearcats.

Winding down a pretty good Tuesday, listen to ESPN Radio's live call of tonight's ALCS Game #2 between the Yankees and the Guardians.

Working through a pretty good Monday. That one chore I always try to do on the first day of the week, my weekly laundry, is all done. Clothes folded and put away. And I'm relaxing to Game 2 of the NLCS, Mets vs Dodgers.

Relaxing my way into this Sunday evening listening to Fox and Father, a weekly conversation between two British friends that I find refreshing.
The NFL games I followed today were entertaining, for the most part. I'm glad the Bears won their game in London, and I'm glad the Colts won their game in Tennessee. The Colts / Lions game quickly devolved into such a blowout that I turned away from that at halftime.

This College Football Saturday I'm targeting two games to follow: with an 11:00 kickoff scheduled I'll listen to the Wisconsin Badgers vs the Rutgers Scarlet Knights, then with a 2:30 PM start I'll listen to the Stanford Cardinal vs the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
