Over the past few months, It has been quiet. At one point I even remarked, too quiet. Apparently, Karma was having a quiet week, and overheard that remark. So, karma dropped in this week.

• This week has seen, two ambulance calls to the park. One requiring a county deputy (unknown reason). Another was a man having breathing difficulties. It was unbearably hot that day.
• Another six inch thick limb came down yesterday, this one landed on the cable and phone lines that pass over the yard. Good thing, there were about eight lines, and they were able to sustain the weight till Popeye could come and cut it up. If this continues, I won’t have to purchase any firewood this season. I didn’t bother with a picture of it, as it was dark and raining lightly.
• My forum went on and offline for 3 days. Power problems at one of the UK data centers.
• My blog, decided to imitate the forum. Replacing the old theme seems to have fixed it. (Damn, I said that aloud didn’t I.)
• I’m trying my hand at YouTube, and live-streaming. The old webcam died a horrible death. I think the squirrel (Trip) pouncing on it probably didn’t help. It was 9 years old, so it was time. Down to three wireless cams now and a desk cam. I need to see about an increase in my allowance from Michelle. Thank you, Ellie, for the like and subscription. I can use all the likes and subscriptions I can get, as you can tell.

• While helping Michelle set up her 20 gallon Aquarium, I tripped over the wastebasket in her hobby room. Thankfully it was a lightweight wire decorative type. It now resembles more of a squat wire planter, 230 pounds will do that to light wire wastebaskets.
• While watching TV I enjoyed too many White Castle Sliders, they are like the small Krystal burgers. That resulted in a sour stomach and two days of sleeping it off, due to the nausea meds. I never learn.

Yes, I know. Sounds strange

That, brings us to this morning. Since I was feeling a lot better, I decided to clean my office desk. I wipe it down each morning due to dust and hair that Reboot is kind enough to leave me. The keyboard is kept covered at night. Every 3 months or so, I even wax the top of the desk. Reboot doesn’t care for that ritual. Yes, I know. Sounds strange, but I wax the top to keep it nice, and easier to clean.

While putting away my items used in the cleaning, I hear a commotion that usually heralds a high speed game of chase. Reboot in the lead, and one of the small dogs right behind her. She raced in the door and leapt for the first high ground, which was the soft silver material area in the left of the picture. That would have been fine, but apparently she meant to put maximum distance between her and her pursuer. When she hit the freshly waxed surface of the desk, which I proudly use a high grade auto polish on, her momentum was not reduced.

She proceeded across the desk, performing some type of radical break-dance move. She scattered the three computer mice, keyboards, phone charger, and a Raspberry Pi (small computer with the blue on it). It reminded me later, of the opening shot in a billiards’ tournament. The small Raspberry Pi, was found in the window sill. A small penlight is still missing, probably behind the desk, where mere mortals shouldn’t venture.

The event, almost equaled the moment a few days ago. I forgot Reboot was asleep to the right of me in front of the window. I took out the can of compressed air, and started blowing any dust out of the keyboard. She has taken to sleeping over by the printer desk now.

So, how was your week? Someone please tell me that the official week only has one day left. On a bright note, I woke up alive and feeling better.

Comments always welcome.
