I took Saturday off

Well, why not? It’s my two days off. So, I read, watched old movies on TMC (the 1952 Blackbeard movie was great) and slept a lot.

The guy across the street (the one who cut my lawn) rang the doorbell in the afternoon and I answered it in my bathrobe. He said his son and two other guys were interested in buying my bike and wanted to know what year it was. I told him off the top of my head, I had no idea. He gave me his card (he has a lawn cutting service) and asked me to call him with that info.

So, that brings up a problem. I bought it to ride it, not to resell it. But, I don’t ride it. Should I sell it? Seems wrong, but I dunno...

When I finally got hungry, I used the last cucumber and made an excellent cucumber sandwich.

About 1:00 AM, I locked the oven door and turned on the “Clean Oven” setting. This is a 4 1/2 hour process, BTW. I was going to do this Friday night, but the winds were “light and variable.” Tonight they are 8-10 mph from the north. So, I opened the one in the bedroom (which faces north) and the one in the kitchen (which faces west).

This (hopefully) along with turning on the vent, will save me from having the smoke detectors go off. It almost did. About 3:00 AM, the smoke detector went of in the bedroom. So, I turned on the fan until it shut off and went back to bed.

And, that was Saturday in a nut-shell.
