I've had a Samsung S23+ for about 6 months or so. It's in every way inferior to the OnePlus 7 Pro I had before. I don't like Samsung, but it was the best choice T-Mobile had.

Got the yard mowed today. It was feeling like 105 but the humidity was only 40% so not too bad. I didn't start until 11 and there was a lot of dew on the grass. It looks like the yard is full of diamonds in the mornings.

Started my eighth cycle of Chemo pills this morning. Took a nap. Ate lunch. Feel OK. See the Oncologist on Friday. I hope to be up to the 270 mile round trip drive. Wish I had a driver. I should be OK as I have done it before a few times. This should be the final Chemo cycle. I will get a PET scan end of September and that should indicate if all this has worked or not. Thanks for asking.

It looks like the yard is full of diamonds in the mornings. I mowed part of my yard with the recently resurrected field mower. My gas can had a little Diesel fuel in it and the Kawasaki V-twin does not like that. It runs but not as I would like. So, I am heading over to the station for some high test gas without the diesel. I may go to Questa, down the road. They have a station which sells straight gasoline without ethanol.

Uh-oh. The weather guys on TV have their shirt sleeves rolled up, so it's serious. The northern part of the state along Lake Erie are getting waves of severe thunderstorms moving from west to east. And there are tornado warnings in a few areas. About sixty miles south of Cleveland, where we are, a line of thunderstorms with high winds are on the way and should last for a few hours. Guess I won't be smoking another pipe out on the deck.

Over 4" of rain between yesterday's 15 minute rain and today's much longer storm.

Last night the sound on the big computer sound went MIA so I messed with stuff for about a hour and went BT headphones. This morning it fixed itself when I turned it back on. who ever thought of putting sound with USB circuits needs a swift kick. Good luck John, it is almost over the chemo that is. Word to self do not commit crime at a Quiktrip without a good disguise. Peace and love, those that have should give. And don't be washing your junk in the sink, I will report you.

Harvested some tomatoes, eggplants and green beans. I think I need to pick some Hungarian peppers, too. Not much else to do in the yard until it dries out some. 72, sunny and breezy. I can get used to this.

Just watching the news and they said that Texas is executing the guy who murdered our friend 27 don't know why it took so long the guy confessed years ago. Anyway, I got something in my eye.

The wheels of justice grind exceedingly slow. Timothy McVeigh was executed pretty swiftly, (rightly so) But when Joe Sixpack is murdered, and is irrefutable, they often die from old age or health before the death warrant is carried out.

kicking back in the AC, woke up early enough to see dew on the windows the beaty of the swamp rewards those who get up early enough. Skipped the Olympics today opting for YouTube and reruns of Young Sheldon thrown in with Civilization VI gaming. Glad to read Don is now on the mend. Have a Happy or whatever you do best.
