Shot number 4
Feb. 12th, 2026 09:03 amToday is Thursday so volleyball, then Timber Ridge Times, then shot.
Volleyball was a little less than meh. The jerk that plays sometimes was there today and extra jerky. He makes it difficult for the rest of us to play. Sometimes he's on his good behavior. Today wasn't one of those times.
But Thursday is distribution day for The Timber Ridge Times. It's a nice little 8 sheet compendium of stuff that has gone on or is planned and other miscellaneous news from around the building. They do a nice job of it. The receptionist counts out the number of issues needed for each floor section and those of us who deliver, pick them up any time on Thursday. I generally pick up our batch on my way back from volleyball.
And then shot 4. I'm now emptied my first box of Wegovy. Next one is ready. I'm used to the sting - it's not so much the needle but the juice going in and just a bit after. I feel like it's kind of a 'good job!' message.
My last tax docs arrived. Early! They are required by the 15th. but the 15th is a Sunday and then Monday is Presidents day so I guess the investment first just said fuck it, let's just release them. I uploaded them to the CPA and sent a note - it's up to you, now!!
Last year, I ordered a large El cheapo tablet to use as a 'tv' in the bedroom. It turned out to be pretty much a dud. A large dud. So, this year, heading into baseball season, I decided to see if I could find a non dud. And I actually found several. Well, really two because I refuse to own a Samsung phone/tablet/computer. One was from a company that feels pretty shaky and you could only order it from them and all the accouterments I wanted - pen and keyboard were extra and it was pricey to start with. So that left me with Lenovo. Even that was not easy since they have two different models - one is better at some things and the other is better at others. Even Gemini couldn't make the decision for me. But, finally, I picked - Yoga Plus. It arrives tomorrow morning. Before lunch.
I love getting new tech. Which is why I have so much and don't need more but, fortunately, do not let that stop me.
Plus, I've been thinking about ditching my living room TV. If I had anything to put in its place, I might just do it. One day, if I live long enough, I'll rearrange this room and eliminate the TV and just watch from small screens. Maybe. Probably not.
The cats pulled out a plug from the bed. It's a mass of wires and cables under there and I have no clue where this one goes. The foot still rises. The head still rises. The under bed lights still work. It could connect the USB plugs that I don't use or the battery backup which has never worked. I just don't know and as long as everything is working, I'm not going to worry about it. I bought a 10 year warranty when I bought the bed in 2021. So whew.
