Went to the Dr's office and got flu shots for me and DW, then to the optometrist's for new glasses for DW and contacts for myself, then took DW to a late lunch/early dinner.
Helped a friend set up his new router after the result of his house getting hit by lightning. Determined his wireless Sonus system is now defunct from the surge. That adds to the two TV's and pool power panel. What a mess. Also blew 1/2 the bricks off his chimney.
DW got a flu shot and I declined.
I'm planning on getting a lightning protection system on my new house. It will set me back $5K. Lots of lightning up here. Probably worth it.
Dug a 300' trench and installed a new security line between house and workshop. Got stung by 2 bees.
There is a joke about a bee-line in there somewhere...
Today I booted Windows 10, and it made me wait while it did this and that. Finally got to desktop, where it prompted me that TightVNC was uninstalled. Super annoying M$ crap.
We went out for a morning of exercise on the front lawn, blowing leaves, shredding, and sweating.
You live in Ct, so probably a New England accent? Avoid the NY accents, though, too nasal and way too much attitude (for my taste, that is).We are now shopping for "accent pieces". Who knows what that could entail.

Today I got strapped into a MiG 17 at the Jet Warbird Center in Santa Fe NM.
We took off and climbed to 16,000 feet, cruising at 450 mph!
I flew the jet for almost an hour in a beautiful clear blue sky.
What an experience!
Wow...what a thrill!

I see on their website the cost of a flight is $3k per hour. Yikes!
