As far as the weather, I am glad I did the engine when I did. The weekend weather has been rather poor and would make for uncomfortable conditions.
Nothing like you guys in the the frosty stuff deal with, but still not fun to wrench in.

Morning everyone,

Happy Thursday!
Im soooo looking fotward to the weekend. My new Galaxy tablet came in yesterday, so now I can do my online class on that instead of Jimmys laptop. His computer speaker sucks & I can barely hear the videos. Should be a breeze to finish the class now! I have to complete it by the 20th, because our hands on practicals & CPR/AED class is the 21st! Nothing like cramming, huh? Lol

Have a great day

Morning everyone. I hope you all have fun today.

Donna, good luck with the class and the surgery. Why didn't you just use headphones with the laptop?

Donna, you make your eye surgery sound routine. I hope it is, like no complications, OK?

I finally eked out enough space to install my new (new to me,) kiln in my garage. I have been trying to get this together for several years. But now, I managed to buy a really good kiln for only $100! And it has a digital controller which is probably worth $500 without the kiln which is worth another $400 by itself. I am stoked. I have 220/2140v in my garage that I put in for my table saw, but it is a four wire hookup. The kiln is only three wires, the plug looks like a regular dryer plug but it has one prong that is narrower. I will have to get some advice on this. If I have to, I will pull another circuit but I would rather tap into my existing outlet since it is well located for the job. Certainly, the Kiln and the table saw would not be used at the same time. Any answers out there?

It is still fairly cold, forties during the day but clear and sunny today and yesterday so I have been able to get a lot done.

FULL MOON tonight! I always think I should head to the casino when we have one. But then I think it is just a superstition anyway. Anyway it is a nice clear sky and the moonrise was beautiful.

Hope everyone is feeling good and spunky, it's Friday eve. Cheers all.

I tried ear buds & it still didnt improve the volume much.
