BACK IN BUSINESS


Blood glucose 81

Well I'm back in business. It remains to be seen if the problem has been fixed.

It was 40 degrees at 7:00 AM and cloudy. At noon there is a heavy cover of clouds. Maybe the sun will come out later?

More tonight. Josh has a late conference call.

PROBLEMS WITH PC


I must bring my pc to Staples for a tune-up. Things aren't working right and it's frustrating.

JOHNSON AT 77

 
Today is Richard B. Johnson 77 birthday. I called Dick inviting him to West Brookfield and suggesting we head northwest towards Athol and beyond into Franklin County. It was a beautiful ride. I did feel the foliage wasn't as bright as I anticipated. We did see a massive pumpkin patch where all pumpkins were left to die.
 
On the way back I suggested Johnson  take an option.. of a crisp $20 bill or lunch. Dick grabbed the 20 and said he was hungry so I treated him to a Subway meatball grinder in West Brookfield. Happy Birthday, Dick!
 
The Trump/ Biden flag wavers were out along the WB Town Common. We drove by the demonstration  tooting the horn for Trump! Dick enjoyed it.
 
Saw Josh briefly. He wanted  to road-test the Honda repairs. A-OK.

FULL MOON OVER PALMER


Last night I was in Palmer visiting a friend who is considering building an auction gallery. The complexities of this enterprise raises questions whether it is a good idea. Covid has turned the world upside down. And now the president is in Walter Reed Hospital.

Last night as I was leaving my friend's restaurant for some unknown reason I lost my balance and fell! I handed on my left elbow as folks came to me rescue lifting me up. Walking in my advancing years with a cane is dangerous especially in the dark. 

Car repairs were formidable.$633.40 two new rear tires and brakes. The mechanic advises transmission transmission replacement looms in  the future.

Got a 1923 Peace silver dollar in BU condition

Campfire tonight was chilly.

CAR REPAIRS - OVER $600!

With over 261,000 miles, Ronda Honda has had a face lift! "Fix it.. and fix it again" was the wisdom of Frank Cooke.

My document of 10 pages is ready to go to the printer. It is the story of my life as  estate auctioneer and precious metal trader. Know of any publishers?

WEDNESDAY DISCOVERY


Yesterday, I discovered my story as an auctioneer in a handwritten diary recounting my days from the get-go. I am now transcribing it into the title of "memoirs of a country auctioneer!" I am enthused with this project and will submit it to the marketplace for writers. I think the mere fact unique auctioneering makes it a winner! Wish me luck!

The skies cleared on Wednesday. My day was spent preparing for today, visit Blake Lamothe. We reviewing the possibilities of his opening an auction gallery. in Palmer

The Honda goes into the garage for wheel bearing repairs.
