Great stuff Karl, hope it all goes well for you.

As for me, it was pay day………………………….OK, pension day, but it's all money…………….for more models…………...

 
After hearing a rather strange noise outside, I found this poor little thing hiding under my car





I don't know if she had gotten lost or been dumped but she was tame and very friendly if somewhat scared. Gave her food and water and kept her in overnight. Not the best night's sleep I've ever had, as she wanted to be held all the time or would start mewling non stop. Spent most f the night having my face pawed or licked as she wouldn't sleep anywhere else than right under my chin.

Can't keep her where I am, so took her to the animal shelter next morning. Still, feel like I've done a good deed, even if she did take a dump on my floor
 
Kiddo's been quite vocal all her life (all 13 months of it so far), enjoying shrieking at the top of her lungs (mostly to scare the cats, I believe, a pasttime which I can completely understand and support! cats are evil.). Lately, though, she's discovered how to modulate her sounds. There's nothing better than a toddler "singing" in the morning! Next comes talking (already can say "DaDa"...which can either mean Mom, Dad, or Byebye, depending on the context.)!!!

 
Loosening up my stupid aching back muscles with a lengthy motorcycle ride (5-6 hours) in the wonderful early spring sunshine.
So if I'm a total wreck tomorrow, at least I'll know WHY!
 
My son bought me the Christopher Shores book Dust Clouds over the Middle East for Christmas for £17. Have just seen it on sale at Amazon second hand for £145.
I wish all my other investments went up so much!!
 
*eyes Bucksnort warily*...alive...it's alive, IT'S ALIVE, IT'S ALIVE!!!

My good thing today?
Spending the coffee breaks today outdoors in the sunshine, without jumper or overcoat.
Ah, sunshine, warm weather, springtime!

Amen to that. Spring has come early in my neck of the woods, trees are already sprouting leaves, about two or three weeks earlier than normal. I noticed the Wild Leeks (AKA Ramps) are starting to sprout at the Archery Range. May have to pick some before I head out on vacation and cook some up in camp.
 

Yum, sounds great - there's nothing like sunshine and warm weather after a long, cold, boring, dull, dreary, icky winter. It's definitely vitamins for the soul.

Another good thing for me today:
Found three really interesting books on sale today at one of my local supermarkets:

Claus Bundgård Christensen, Joachim Lund, Niels Wium Olsen Jakob Sørensen: Danmark Besat - krig og hverdag 1940-1945. (Denmark Occupied - war and everyday life 1940-1945), and the two volumes of William Shirer's book: The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, in danish.
That was 100 (approx. 18 US$) Dkr per book for Shirer's books, and 200 Dkr (approx. 36.50 US$) for the other one - snatch!
Normally, books like that (hardback) cost from 300 to 5-600 Dkr per volume.
That's from 55 to 91-110 US$, so that offer was just too good to just walk by.
