Title: Monday, July 5
Post by: Blazeman on July 05, 2021, 07:06:43 AM
Holiday observed for the working people.  Just another day for us retirees.  Things do change when one retires.

Lovely morning in SE PA. Warmer weather with humidity gradually returning.  Baseball season at the halfway point.  Pro football camps will get rolling in another week or two.

Looks like my email got hacked yesterday.  Heard from many about "my" plea for some kind of game cards for a niece I don't have.  Any advice?

Morning, all.

Off today.  Can't walit until that's every day.  I did remind my boss on July first that starting next year, I'm cutting back one day a week.  I'm gettin' too old for this.  Mowing and a trip to the grocery store on tap for the day.

Change your password. Change the password on all your bank accounts or accounts where you can spend money (walmart.com, e.g.). Get a VPN. (The VPN doesn't fix the hacking problem but does reduce the amount of egregious targeting you notice.)

Good morning to all. Taking this week off. I've been getting close to finishing Dexter's Dead End -- will post some pictures in my Monee rebuild thread later today. Also time to finally fix the cracks in the backdrop as I start to install dioramas. Ick.

Morning all,

Larry, I never open any email that I'm not absolutely sure I know whom is sending them. Delete and not open.

I'm off to mow the grass prior to the rains.

Have a great day Ya'll.

Tom  ;D

Morning,

Scanned 300 slides yesterday, only another 30,000 to go. Do you think it will get done before I meet the maker?

Good morning! Well today, Amy and I are celebrating our 35th wedding anniversary. We can actually go out for a nice dinner this year to our favorite restaurant.  I hope everyone has a great day.  Here is another photograph of F&SM.

Happy Anniversary Amy and John!

Yep.  A day off for us working stiffs.  Cutting back one day a week next year is a start Jeff.   ;)  I'm counting the days until I can cut back five days a week.   ;D

I started putting together a little FOS freebie yesterday and found a few parts were missing so I had to manufacture some of my own.  Maybe I can wrap that one up today.  I also need to spend some time uploading pictures to the forum so I can wrap up a build thread I have going.
