Keeping an eye on the news today, lots of Trump trash is coming home to roost. (The world seems also to be watching as lot of banks are starting to wobble. Thanks loads, Donald.) Later in the week I may need to do a news blackout, too much of this isn't good for me.

Spring cleaning today, when I pulled a half-dozen light jackets from the hall closet (fleece and jeans) and ran them through the wash. I tend to wear the fleece jackets around the house in the winter instead of turning up the heat, but now they're the right weight for going out so they can all stand some freshening. Next up: dog rugs.

I think the day is about as warm as it will get, so I'll head out and do the soffit repairs before rain that is forecast later today and tomorrow. And the back yard needs mowing, so I can put on my ankle band for my fitness tracker and see how many steps. (They're meant for wearing on a wrist that moves as you walk but the wrist is stationary during mowing, hence my regular default to an ankle strap to track activity.)

This afternoon I may complete the first attic di-pole antenna using an old coaxial cable that's no longer connected to a cable company point outside the house. It's a test. Something for R to play with if he's ever in the mood, Dorothy. :)

I picked up Cara Cara oranges and Ruby Red grapefruit at Costco yesterday - and I'm back to at least one citrus fruit a day while they're in season. This is one food group that has a well-defined season if you want really good fruit.

It looks like our New England and Down East lurkers are getting pretty nasty weather today. I hope some of them will check in. In the far West, another atmospheric river is headed toward California. Keep your heads above water and let us know how you're doing.
