If it wasn't for CFL

football in the summer and Oilers hockey in the winter, most of my time is spent at the computer, news at 11-12 back on the computer You Tube, my music channel, and retro gamming. 

I've been invited for cards 3 days a week in the main floor lounge, but this RLS has. Irene next door has a small group going. 

I think she does this after "Coffee Club." I might do this in the winter. The game they play is Bridge or Wyst, which I've never played before. 

I've got a feeling that after lodge, I'll be back at work but I'm making my availibility for just 3 days a week. At 74 years old I'm closing out that portion of my life. This could be the last project as it cuts into my rent the more money I make the Alberta Government claws back from the AG pension. As a senior I really need to watch my income. Anyway, that's all for now.

Looks like my day

tomorrow is free. I'm not doing anything in Lodge Thursday other then open and close, it seems.

I'm seriously considering an account for the Audio Technica AT2020USB-XP Cardioid Condenser USB Microphone. Not only is it USB but sound monitored is from the mic itself via a headphone input on 

the mic itself. Also this mic has a built in audio interface. I've had Audio Technica mics before but the last one was an XLR mic input. This mic goes right to the sound card in the computer via USB.  

Anne left out of here to get milk. She didn't say where, Safeway or Capilano mall. Anyway, that's all for now.

The dog days of

summer. Translation: Not much going on. Sunday is lodge practice. Thursday is Lodge. 

Yesterday morning I woke up about 11am with a Melatonin pill in my system. Then back to bed about 2pm for an hour and a half. No game play nothing. I hope to get more into the Pokemon game today.

I've been thinking about Band in a Box. Apparently Long & McQuade has it or a license to provide a digital license for it. Might be interesting. Anyway, that's all for now. 

It took me awhile

but I finally found the Retrobat instalation folder on my computer. I can finally install softwear versions of games on the coputer.

Not much going on around here lately. Or for this week. Next Sunday is our last Lodge EA° practice run and I want to get ready for that, then it really gets heated up. Practice Sunday, Lodge Thursday, Scottish Rite Friday. 

This week I've been wanting to check out that Doctor nearby because I have a yeast infection and my psoriasis is acting up on me. Plus I need an OTC script for a mussel relaxant for my restless leg syndrome. Anyway, that's all for now.

I was already to go to the

board of general purposes meeting Saturday afternoon. I felt I had enough sleep; I shaved, filled up my bottle of diet cola. Then I read on the TC chat there were something like 14 steps in the building where the meeting was being held. Similar to Banister. I replied that I don't think I could make it because of the long flight of stairs. Then I realized, wait: I'm not bringing my backpack with my iPad etc.  I sent a note in chat that with my apologies. I had a blond moment.

I remember the first couple of years of our marriage when Anne had the car while we were at Capital place. About every other weekend we'd go the Eastglen leisure centre for their Saturday evening adult swim. I got to thinking about something like that again maybe around here.  There is the Bonnie Doon Leisure centre just down the road and they have a Friday late night swim to midnight. That's something similar. I should check into that for us. Cost is $8.50 Seniors. We don't have the car anymore but when we get on the Drive happyness program, it's something to think about. 

No diary entry today. I'd like to cut down on that as well. Get more into my gaming and music even though I cut Sonic pass. it was just costing way too much. Anyway, that's all for now. 

Well that was nother

birthday come and gone. I got a lot of birthday well wishes from family and lodge brothers. They don't have that in Chapter. Anne's back to being her old rude and obnoxious self. 

I had a good time watching wrestling and then the Winnipeg/Elks game. for the first half it was all Winnipeg, 16-6. I went to watch the rest of wrestling and resumed the game in the 2nd half when wrestling was over. In the 2nd half Elks tied the game and both

teams exchanged field goals 19-19. In the last minute of the game it was ELks football, and we drove the ball to the Winnipeg 40 yard line, where our kicker Blanchard made the 3 point field goal, with 3 seconds left in the game making it 19-22 Elks.What a win. That puts Elks at 8 Wins 3 loses.

I'm out of here at ~ 2:45pm to get to Davis LRT Station where our lodge secretary said. He would pick me up. We're having Board of General purpose meeting with me and a bunch of the brethren at an undisclosed location. It's a 2 hour or so meeting. Gets me u tof the house. Anyway, that's all for now.   

Most of my Sunday afternoon

was spend sleeping. I had got about 3 hours from 5:30am-9:00am. RLS took up most of that time. I usually take a Melatonin pill, twice a week. These are half strength pills. Quite often, they fail too work. When they do, they do the trick. 

My next Amazon purchase is a pair of micro SD cards. Specifically the 128Gb San disc. My Anbernic RG35XXPlus has 2 micro sd card slots A twin pack is $91. Not to bad. Add $16 for Trumps fee.

Next Sunday we're holding an EA° practice at an undisclosed location. As musical director, I don't think the organist (Musical director) is doing anything in this degree. We're holding another practice the week of at the same undisclosed location. I'll hit John Slade up for suggestions later today. Anyway, that's all for now.
