Overcast and sprinkly today. I went to Scrabble where I won two, lost one including defeating the Shark!!. That was a nice change since I only beat him about 1 time out of 10. After that I decided to brave Target. Needed new underpants and was hoping to find a new top or two. Mission accomplished. I also bought a few random grocery items. Checkout took forever due to a woman in front of me having trouble with cards, her using a scooter and the checker being a total valley girl. No sweat. When I got to my car and unloaded stuff I discovered that I had stolen a bottle of fair life milk! Missed it unloading all the other stuff. Most days I would have gone back and paid but it was such an ordeal and check out was so dang slow. So I guess I am a criminal.

Skipping the studio today though I should go to the gym. Need to pick up scrip at the pharmacy. So much for life in the fast lane. There might be a little more pot roast and I also got some ravioli and a steak for future dinners.

I don't have strong opinions about what we should do about this site. Both FB and Slack give me tech heartburn but not much and I do use both. I think there is a way on slack to reply to a post. Not sure what the channels mean. It also has private messaging. We have an adults only part on our family chat room for stuff we don't want the teenagers to read but it is seldom used. Only political ranting. Anyway, whatever works so long as we continue.

Studio buddy comes tomorrow for more tech babysitting. We shall see how it goes.

Enjoy your guest free zone Liz. You guys sure host a lot!

122.2 - really going in the wrong direction! I need to curtail the snacks!

Without knowing what caused the issues on OH, it is hard to know whether we should abandon the ship yet. So maybe we should vote on what to do?

1. Stay on OH for now, since it seems to be working fine again
2. Move to TT on FB
3. Move to SlackChat

My vote is in the order above, mostly based on familiarity. Slack Chat seems like one running chat to me which I don't love (but maybe I just don't understand it well enough). Since TT is a private group I think it would work fine and mostly can be organized like we do here (one main post per day with comments under it). But with OH working again, maybe we just stay here for now?

Yesterday we went out to lunch with our friends, then out to dinner. Lots of good food, but that is why my weight is up.

Our friends leave today and I am cooking pot roast in the crock pot. I have my osteoporosis shot this afternoon, then DH and I are golfing after that. No association golf this week because there is a big men's tournament starting tomorrow.

We will have the house to ourselves for 6 days/5 nights. Glorious!

Have a tiny Tuesday!

This seems to be working for now. So maybe we stay here for now? It is sunny and almost warm here and the sky is intensely blue. I went to the studio to pick up new stuff and also did glazing of the ravens. We have two black glazes - one glossy and one matte so I am experimenting with those on the ravens. Lots of cool stuff came out of the kiln and it is always fun to look at other people's stuff. I also made a quick store stop and am now puttering at home.

More pot roast tonight though this was a very small roast. Seems like the stores either have small ones or half a cow. DH never eats the roasted carrots but I love them. Dogs will get a bite.

The rhododendrons are starting to come out in full force. In the gallery town there are some huge ones that are spectacular and huge. We have a few in our yard that we neglect and they bloom anyway.

Not much else. Scrabble tomorrow and who knows what else.
