Silly, but a visor to wear indoors.

I love the natural light from windows, and my office arrangement is perfect except that 70% of the year I have too much glare from behind and above the monitors when I use my PC.

I promised myself that I wouldn't spend more than $50 at the garden center. I spent $48.15. Yay me. Impatiens. They are already planted and have their little faces turned up to the sun.

And I bought a birthday card for DD. It has pictures of kitties on the outside and says "Happy Birthday. The more kitties you have..." and inside says "the more likely you house will smell funny." She has a kitty; DGD has two. So far the house doesn't smell funny, but it's a big house so plenty of room for more. I could give her another kitty.

Landscape and nature photography. I began using Photoshop from its earliest CS3 era.

Forgot to add the Amazon link for the keyboard on that post. Review section is a good read on a well rated typing product. I like soft, low actuation force chiclet style keyboards most. Because of some arthritis in some of my fingers, I can no longer type rapidly in a more conventional style like I could up to about age 50.

I have always been a 6-finger typist. Now, I too am afflicted with arthritis. It is not as bad as others I see at my age (75), and I think i am more limber because of playing finger style guitar. Even now, I can practice for, say, an hour and it will quiet my hands stiffness. I am still a 6-finger typist, and having written four novels within the past 6 years, I surmise all of that typing has helped my arthritis as well. When I wake up and first arise, I am stiff as a board then spend the next hour or so working it all out.

Spent a whole lot. Only a few more days before the Bay closes. Everything is at least 70% off. I bought some flat sheets, a duvet, a shower curtain. In the makeup department it’s 40% off. Bought my DD a makeup scrub brush and for me a EA moisturizer with sunscreen. I haven’t looked at the total yet. Also, 6 face clothes which are the main reason I went there.

Oh dear.... Went to Costco and bought a load of groceries plus a pair of pants for DH. I heard the checker say, $207.50, and thought to myself, well there IS a lot here. Wrong. She said $307.50!

$100 of it was coffee and coffee creamer. (DH's favorite coffee beans are on sale so we stocked up.) Also took advantage of sales on Glide floss and glucosamine & chondroiton. Another $60 there.

Oh well. As Tony Soprano used to say, Whaddyagonnado?
