Well, maybe no red, but it was a good day at the mail box —three pieces:
- Morgan Stanley junk mail, right into the trash
- Letter from my buddy in prison who I haven’t heard from in a couple of months
- My IRS refund check, the first in probably 10 years
Spent the day running around for groceries and to put the check in the bank, too funny that I just transferred money into checking this morning and paid all the remaining monthly bills. Guess this means I’ll have a running start on next months.
The rest of the day was spent working on getting a new account set up with PayPal for the summer gathering that I’m the co-host for —it will be a first for this rather tradition bound group. Imagine being able to email in your registration and pay using PayPal, how modern. I even made some custom PayPal buttons for the site:
After a dinner of boneless pork loin chops, a potato pancake and some salad I got most of the flyer and registration form done. Still on the list are to make the form into a submittable PDF, design the website, get the buttons hosted, link the bank account to the PayPal account. Luckily the gathering isn’t until August.
I guess that leaves the Boltage research on adhesives until tomorrow. Maybe I should have done the billable hours work first!
Update on my father’s aggressive prostate cancer —seems it is stable, aggressive but stable, oddly contradictory. They are adding new drugs to the regimen and will check back in 3 months. Check back at the end of June for more news.
