Yes, we got our tax returns, and we have a lot to return. Oh my! we make $1.00 and have to give the government(s) back $0.37… that’s just not right!
Being the dutiful husband, I was up by 7:00 am, in the kitchen, making a cup of joe for m’lady and bringing it to her.
It is now 7:45 am, and I am beginning to shake with the thought that in 45 minutes I must get into the car and travel 1.1 miles to the dreaded gym. At this location,d for 90 minutes,s I will be subjected to acrobatics, calisthenics, gymnastics, isometrics, physical jerks, stretching, tumbling, workouts, and various forms of yoga. In the end, I will have recovered, having lost 0.001 pounds and gained acknowledgment of seventeen more muscles than I ever knew I had! Oh my!
This is me attempting to get to the car after the “workout,” which consisted, amongst other things, of a “Post Back Squat”!
Mary was feeling down, perhaps with the start of a cold, so she suggested some Jewish Penicillin (often called chicken noodle soup) for breakfast from Benjies! Bravo, great ideas. Off we went to 17th Street and the 55 Freeway.
Mary had her penicillin but augmented it with some Irish Coffee. We were quite surprised when the coffee came with a bunny!
I swear I heard it hiccup!
Now, I have two bunnies at the table!
Surrounded by bunnies!
Upon arriving at home, Mary took a nap, and I headed to the yard for additional work. Amazon delivered a starting capacitor I needed for my “busted” air compressor, and after a 10-minute install and wiring, it was off and running, just like new. Now I have compressed air in the back yard for my tools.
The rest of the afternoon, I puttered around in the HeShe’d, trying to get it better organized, and I also planted some flower seeds and worked a bit on our step-exercise machine. It is out of date and has no replacement parts, but I am going to try to get it going again before we move it upstairs.
Mary found some pizza in the fridge, and I took over from there and prepared a gourmet dinner of pizza, grapes, sliced pizza, and wine.
After dinner, we tried to watch a Bruce Willis movie, but it was so full of foul language that I went back to the exercise room and tried to fix the control panel again.
Before plunging into the exercise machine innerds, I walked outside to see the progress on the front of the house. When I looked up, there it was, a magnificent contrail left from a missile launch at Venenbury Space Base.
Taken from the front yard!
In the backyard, one could see the entire contrail as it drifted southwest!
Amazing what air currents can do to the contrails!
We crashed around 10:00 pm, but then I got up and finished off the Easter 2026 Webpage.
