129 this morning.

Yesterday's high was 41°, today's forecast is 52°/27° and sunny. It was 17° when I went out to feed the cats.

Looks like a nice 3 days in the low to mid 50's and sunny then Monday begins a change with rain and snow as the week goes on. I really need to get the parking side of the garage in order before the snow really gets here! That will be my goal for today and the rest of the weekend.

112 this morning. 18° and foggy when I went out to feed the cats.

Yesterday's high was 46°, today's forecast is 53°/36° and sunny, I guess once the fog clears.

Nothing exciting on the agenda, laundry and vacuuming and maybe breaking down a stack of Chewy boxes in the garage if it gets warm enough. I never got to trying the power clean on the Epson yesterday. I'm wondering if when I hook up laptop to printer the Utility will show up on laptop from the printer..... don't even know it that is how it works, but worth a try I guess, just for the heck of it.

89 this morning. Our high yesterday was 72° and it is heading to 74° today so pretty nice through Monday then cooling down to the 60s.

I am not dure what I am going to do today, I am either going to work on my computer or do some much needed cleaning. I guess it depends on how motivated I am.

117 this morning.  Warmer morning at 31°.

Yesterday's high was 47°, today's forecast is 48°/32° with possible light shower AM. Next week looks pretty decent with 40's for the days and 20's for the nights not much else. Of course that can change!

Still hoping to do some work in the garage today. But still need to do some organizing for crystal lady. At least she is not coming until 10AM tomorrow!

97 this morning. Our high yesterday was 74° and it is supposed to be 76° today so nice until Friday when we will be in the low 60s, not cold but cooler.

I did get some of the cleaning up I needed but still more to get to today so that is what I am going to try to get done.

120 this morning.

47° was the high yesterday, today's forecast is 54°/33° cloudy and one site says possible snow late night.

Only chore for today is garbage up the road. The crystal lady is coming at 10, finally a decent time. That will take several hours out of the morning. And she is so high energy she always leaves me exhausted by the time she leaves. She called me last week to as if "we" had any topaz (we???), I said yes just rough stones. So she is claiming part ownership on my crystals??? hmmmm. I'm hoping that means she intends to eventually buy them all!?

105 this morning. Our high yesterday was 75° and it is supposed to be the same today and through Thursday then dropping Friday into the 60s. Still no rain in sight for this area but there is a chance for some closer to the coast.

Tomorrow I have to start on a more restricted diet before the colonoscopy Friday so there are several things they don't want me to have like beef, raw vegetables, anything with seeds and a few more. Not so bad but Thursday is the all liquid diet, ugh.

116 this morning.

50° was the high yesterday, today's forecast is 46°/28° and cloudy.

Yesterday the crystal lady tossed out the idea of a price for the whole lot of all the crystals that are left. Kind of caught me by surprise! When we started, given my last inventory when I stopped selling on eBay my total inventory was $34,800. So far she has spent $1100 at greatly reduced prices. My guestimate is she got probablu $5,000 worth of crystals so far. I really have to think about this. Do I just take the inventory and decide on a percentage? She is looking for dirt cheap prices, I figured that out the second time she came, but she wants really good crystals. Her heart is good, but I don't know where she would come up with so much money and I am very hesitant to set up a payment schedule for that large amount of money.  Sheesh, I do want to sell them but something here makes me uneasy.   Sorry, needed to vent....

Nothing else planned for today....

105 this morning. Our high yesterday was 75° and it is supposed to be 68° today. Yesterday was overcast and windy but today it is clear and sunny.

Today I start on a more restricted diet to prepare for the colonoscopy so that should be fun.

Well, I guess it depends on where else you could sell them and what you could get for them. There are other outlets like Ebay or Facebook market place that may be worth looking into.

103 this morning.

43° was the high yesterday. One weather site said it was 57°, no way!  Today's forecast is 49°/33° partly cloudy with a chance of showers in the aftenoon and mountain snow at night.

Today I want to break down all the Chewy boxes I have been saving in garage for cat "houses' outside when the weather is nice. Then on to trying to figure out a price for "everything" in my crystal stock that is left. I want to come up with a number I can live with. It is up to her to accept or decline or try a counter offer. We'll see how that goes. I'm not goiing to rush my calculatiions....

The ink for my Epson printer came yesterday. I topped off the Black and it was easy peasy to do. The generic bottles don't have the "wings" to insure you put the right color in the right tank, just the round hole that fits into the tank. No spills or drips removing it part way through the bottle so I am pleased with this product. I guess the inks mixed OK as the pages I printed looked fine. The only issue is the bottles are only about 3/4 full, but I guess consodering the cost differential they still are a deal.

97 this morning. Our high yesterday was 68° and it is supposed to be 71° today so still nice. Tomorrow should be the same then a big drop Friday and we will be in the 60s. Not cold by any means but cooler. It would be nice to see some rain but nothing in sight here.

Glad your printer is doing good now and the ink you bought should work just fine. I agree that the Epson "genuine" ink is just too expensive. I bought a supply of Epson ink when I got my printer and it was a lot cheaper than it is now. When I need to get another supply I would get the third party ink also. My black ink tank is still 1/2 full and the color tanks are still 3/4 full with the original ink that came with the printer and I do print a lot so I think it will be quite a while before I need to buy more ink. 

Today I can eat most things with some exceptions and tomorrow is a liquid diet so ready for that.

Yeah, my color tanks were at 3/4 but the black was down to 1/3 because I had been printing Black only once the others were blocked. I filled the black up to the top as black seems to go down faster.

This is the brand I got:

and using the coupon it is even cheaper!

79 this morning. Our high was 72° yesterday and it is supposed to be the same today then colder tomorrow and into the low 60s.

Today is my liquid diet all day for the prep before tomorrow so not a fun day. I won't be posting tomorrow morning so probably in the afternoon when I get back.

95 this drizzly morning.

50° was the high yesterday, today's forecast is 49°/24° with showers AM.

The Cannon printer arrived yesterday. I hadn't noticed it says it does 2 sided printing! I'm going to keep it, won't even open it now. Given the current state of things, I expect electronics are going to go way up in prices. This will be in storage until I need a new printer, and at $39 it will be a bargain in waiting!

Not much on agenda today. I want to finish breaking Chewy boxes in the garage. Probably have about 8-10 big ones to go. More tiding in the office and sorting crystals. Still undecided what to do about her offer.
