So yesterday afternoon, while Julia is working at her office in town, I decided it would be a good idea to just do a meditation for myself. I had a little time to kill, and it had been a while since I had just stretched out and took a little time to see what pops up. And, yeah, something definitely popped up, “That’s for sure!”

Julia and I both finished up work today at around 4:00 PM and then we did something we haven’t done in a while. We sat on our front porch and watched it rain.

Today was another one of those days where Julia and I finished work up by noontime. And then? We decided to take a walk into town, stopping by the bank and paying everybody a visit down there. And then… “We hit Friendly’s for lunch.”

Julia is a real sweetheart sometimes; her actually canceling some of her appointments today so that she could drive me out to Pennsylvania to set up a computer for a friend/client. And… While I insisted that she didn’t have to do that and I could make alternative transportation arrangements, she assured me that it was something she felt she needed to do and would probably benefit her in the long run. Although, she did admit, “She really wasn’t sure what those benefits might be.”

“Wow! That must have been a really good dream that you just woke up from.” Those were the first words to reach my ears as I opened my eyes and realized that the nose of Julia was about an inch from my own.

Julia and I slept in a bit this morning. Well… We woke up at 8:00 AM. “Let’s put it that way.”

It was just a wet day all around. So, Julia and I stayed in today and screwed off doing housework. Or, maybe it was more like, “Screwed and got off,” while doing some housework. “Let me think on that.”

So, yet another productive day has come to a close; Julia and I both finishing up with our business obligations by lunchtime today. After a quick lunch, Julia asked if I could help her out with Audacity; give her a few pointers on making cleaner recordings, work things more efficiently, etc.

I really do need to work on my stealth. Once again, I got up around four-thirty in the morning and was busted sneaking out of the bedroom and down the hall to my study so I could journal about a dream I had, which was rather disturbing because the dream had snakes in it.

If ever there was a time that I thought Julia might have wet herself from laughter, it was this evening as we were leaving Ellen’s complex after an enjoyable meal of lasagna and wine for both of us. Yup. I do drink wine on occasion, “Especially if it’s white.”

I woke up early this morning and couldn’t fall back asleep. And… After watching Julia sleep peacefully for a while, “I decided it was time to get down to business.”

“You know babe, when I lay here on your couch and listen to you work with that screen reader in Google Search Console, all I can think is, ‘Why doesn’t this guy have a bottle of Tylenol or Advil right on his desk to help with the headache’. That sounds painful!”

You know? I couldn’t have been more blessed with the wife that I have. She is perhaps the most giving woman I know in bed and out of it on the face of the planet.

It’s been a good day. And… You know? The weather wasn’t half bad either.

For the last couple of days, all I’ve done is record podcasts. I put them together. But I didn’t work on the properties. I didn’t write descriptions. I didn’t do any transcripts, either.

I use a Blue Yeti microphone. I understand that Logitech owns them now, which would probably explain why the Logitech G HUB software works with this microphone so well. “More on that in a second.”
