Oven again...

So, of course, I woke up a million times last night. No big deal really, but I sure didn't need an alarm. I got to the pool in plenty of time to do my swim and get home before 8. But, Misfit says I cheated my swim a little. I usually do something between 1.2 and 1.4 miles according to my new tracking method. The down side of the method is that I don't see the actual mileage until I'm out of the pool and can sync my phone. But, now I know for sure that the number I do see (points) needs to be at least 350 to meet my mark.

I was home by 7:30 so able to enjoy coffee and a muffin. Now it's just wait and cross your fingers time.

The baseball game starts at 10 this morning. I'm not sure I even want to see it. Last night they lost in the 13th inning by walking in the winning run. Lamest of lame. And, what's worse is that tomorrow we go to Boston and they are having a spectacular year. They always beat us in Boston even when they are having a sucky year. So we may be looking at the beginning of the end for the Mariners this year...

My latest fabric order is coming in today. I need more shirts. Also I ordered one of Amazon's $39 Fire tablets and a frame to hang it on the wall. It's going over my sewing machine for podcasts and baseball watching although the latter may be iffy because the wifi is not great back there. But, by hanging it on the wall, I will get back some sewing table real estate.

I love my tablets and after spending several weeks with my Kindle, I've decided that I like the Kindle app way better. So my 7" tablet is now my Kindle. I keep the 9" on the dining room table mostly for dinner reading. I have a 13" tablet with a keyboard that lives in the bedroom. So, yeah, I might not need another one but for $39, I decided to bite. Plus, you can easily add all the Google stuff to the current Fire versions, apparently, and I'm looking forward to trying that. It will be here today.

I think I'll go move the rug out of the kitchen so the installer guys will have an easier time of it.

Well. things have been a little rocky for our guys too, lately. However, I can't say I'm sorry that King Felix is currently unavailable.

We don't have tickets for any of the Mariners games this weekend. However, we do have seats for the August 2 game in Seattle (where the Sox have not done so well in recent years).

Wait! What??!!!! You guys are coming here???? Seriously? That's fabulous - details plz and they'd better include some quality susandennis time!

Yep. Arriving around midnight on Saturday July 30, flying on to Fairbanks, AK, on August 3. And we should definitely get together sometime maybe lunch on Monday or Tuesday?

VERY COOL!

Absolutely lunch. Monday. With Tuesday as a backup. We could also do a pre-game snack/drink/visit - right here in SDHQ.

Maybe... We're going to the game with a friend, and might be getting together with him before the game.

But yes, lunch Monday.

Excellent.

The pre-game invite includes any and all friends and can be a drive by or eat/drink. I'm totally open and can't wait to see you both!
