Still cold, still damp. Low in the mid 30s, high in the mid 50sF if the weather liars are right. We’ll see. It was 39F when I went to bed, but still, so I thought about a tiny little fire… then opted for a warm bed.
I mostly did piddlefarting around stuff yesterday. I did epoxy the leak in the bathtub. I’m hoping this product and this application last a bit. The previous attempt was not successful due to expired product. Since the tub is scheduled for demo and replacement, stopgap measures were approved.
There was also some present wrapping for my sibling, who we’ll get together with later.
Some other small things got done too.
Today, youngest will get home from her friend’s lakehouse, host some other friends for a couple of hours, then she’ll get ready for a party tonight. Her first high school party. Oh my. That means one of us will have to be awake to get her afterwards. Probably me as I don’t drink alcohol… but I might have a tiny little fire.
The years pass and time flies. Don’t miss it. Stack the present so you can remember it later.

Wednesday. New Year’s Eve morning. Sunny and blue skies. Cheerful. Hopefully propitious for the year to come.
Time to get up and break my fast. No slug-a-bed time today, as we are going to a matinée performance by Jazzrausch Big Band. I am a big fan of their recordings, but haven’t yet seen them live, so am excited about the tickets.
Have a beautiful day!
Second post. Hard to be beat Denis unless I get up really late at night. Which I will not do.
We will do nothing for New Years except go to bed. The artists that are going to perform on Dick Clark’s New Year’s Eve program are mostly hip-hop, rap, and other unintelligible droning noise. Lots of flash, auto-tune, dancing, and otherwise worthless performances. I sound like my aunt and uncle when the Beatles were on Ed Sullivan.
Why 64 Bit Excel? Is there something that cannot be done in 32 Bit? I tried the 64 Bit version of Office. I saw no difference except that some of the plugins no longer worked. I abandoned 64 Bit and run 32 Bit office. Of course my needs pale in comparison to what you do. I do have (or did when I was working) have a fairly complex spreadsheet (to me) with multiple pages, references to hidden pages, table lookups, fancy formatting and some other somewhat useless items for bragging rights and 32 Bit worked fine.
Some of that 32 Bit stuff was because I needed to email spreadsheets preloaded with data that was unique to each user. I had to use ODBC and only the 32 Bit drivers would work with the application that was used to populate the spreadsheets. That was many orbital cycles ago so things have probably changed. I am so far behind in technology, and I don’t much care anymore.
