Same as always. I never leave my property as I have a "servant" who permits me this isolation. Cleaning my bird feeders & houses, cutting down dead sumac, & sorting the deceased spouses mass of books, video games & CDs. which are stacking up in the garage awaiting Goodwill & Books for Africa. The roads around the house are far more quiet, somewhat resembling when I moved here, prior to the 30% increase in population noise that I am trying to escape. Nature fights back.

I have to go out to work, Corrections Officers are essential employees.

I had a sustained conversation, at 7 feet away, with a gas station attendant last night, the longest contact I've had in 2 weeks with anyone outside the department.

I set up a skype account and am watching To Kill A Mockingbird together with my daughter on the other end of the line, at her mom's house. That's the closest we're going to have to her coming over for the weekend for several weeks.

Nice work!

So far I've installed, then expanded a simple lighting control system in the main living areas of the house and garage, swapped a bunch of light fixtures out to match the new ceiling fan, reconfigured a bunch of the switches, got the garage cleaned out enough to actually park a car in it, moved approximatly 1000 pounds of vintage audio gear from the garage to the back bedroom, and have been trying to figure out why baking bacon over here requires 2/3 more time here than it does on the coast.

My "job" is managing my 85 1/2 y/o folks healthcare and finances with the perk of trying to get mom from driving anywhere because she's bored. So technically I'm still working my day job. Yippie.

Been refreshing up on acoustical room treatments (amazing how much one can forget on a subject) regarding bass transmission and cancelling standing waves, then onto higher frequency reflections/absorption to actually begin designing my listening room. The aforementioned vintage audio gear then gets inventoried (I inherited a friends projects so don't really know everything that's there) and then I'll start the rebuild/repair/upgrade phase, try them out and probably sell them to fund the gear I want (which is a whole project in itself).

Now with spring here it's time to start the irrigation system (once I can get the backfliw certified) and onto yard work - by which i mean open negotiations with the neighbor kid to mow the lawn.

I sure miss going out to dinner, though.

You Rock!

I, on the other hand, am working on PS4 thumb syndrome. I am pretty sure they will fall off soon . . .

Chillin and watching tv

Talent and patience. Really incredible.

I'm "teaching" first and sixth grade.
It's been an interesting almost-two weeks.
I just sent them out for PE.
"Go ride your bikes!"

I'm bloody exhausted.

Stir crazy and it has only been three days!

You are quite talented!

I've done some online learning. Then made some models. Hopefully get around to painting my toys next week. I was feeling artistic, which is nice.
