Devising a bucket drum kit. Hitting various things with drumsticks. Laughing my butt off. Probably annoying the neighbor.

Found the perfect bucket snare drum. The Internet says to flip a bucket right side up and throw a handful of pennies in the bottom, and hit the rim, but I found that if you put two pennies in each of the 32 little pockets under the rim, while the bucket is upside down, it sounds better and plays more like a drum. Of course you have a mess of pennies to clean up when you right the bucket, but I can live with that.

I found that you can even tune the drum by placing a container under the bucket, reducing the ringing volume.

I discovered about a half dozen blooming tomatillos in a compost pile.

Kitty and coffee

Finding some new aquatics classes that might work for my rehab needs and my schedule, after searching for a while.

I sat outside and saw a woodpecker.

^ Nice!

There must have been a dozen blue-eyed grass blossoms. Blue with yellow centers. I love them!

Lost mail isn't lost anymore. I have another trillion tranquiler Rxs because my doctor apparently doesn't think I have addiction issues, which I don't, or I'm more ill than I like to admit. Likely both.

Daydreams helping me through things, because I do what I do and feel what I feel.

Talking about things helped.

Feeling better after covid mkII.

I start my assistant worker role at my local autistic youth club today! I have bough some concert level hearing protectors especially and will test them out later.

My stepdads results came back. Not cancer just inflammation. he will go on steroids for a month.

My kitty Sheldon is very vocal today. He has not left our side.

An online British newspaper recently raised my monthly subscription by over 50%. I phoned them up today and told them I wasn't prepared to put up with this sort of thing, and would be cancelling my account. Thereupon the friendly lady at the other end of the line offered me a continuation of my subscription at the old rate (£8.67 per month).

Yippee.

Wrote on my to-do list: GoodWill for percussion

and it totally makes sense to me

The next two days will have warm weather here.

I saw a baby slug in the grass.
