Back to Private

Yesterday
- I got a call from Connie, asking for a ride to pick up her car. The body shop got it finished earlier than they'd promised. So I took her there, and got home in time for the ISM planning meeting. After that, since the sun finally came out and there was enough daylight left, I took a ride on my trike around the neighborhood, about 4 miles. It was good to get some exercise and fresh air!
- At ISM, I promised to host Tea & Rockets this week, with the topic "NASA Spinoffs", to include miniaturization and from that, microcontrollers.
- After the ISM meeting, my laptop overheated (I suspect the latest Windows update, since why not?), so I've switched over to the RPi 400. I need to move my PC Wiki to one of my websites, and make it private, rather than keeping just on the laptop. I just need to decide which one, then install MediaWiki and research how to move a wiki. First, though, of course I need to back up the one on the laptop.
Today
- This morning, after not quite enough sleep (but more than I've been getting lately), I got up about 10:00 a.m., and after making my hot cocoa, I called TruHearing to set up an appointment to get hearing aids. My appointment is at Brown Hearing Center, next to H.E.B. in Bulverde on April 20th. I was hoping that going to an audiologist rather than an ENT specialist I'd be able to get right in, but I suppose all medical offices are pretty busy these days. Anyway, that's done. This company (TruHearing) does offer the behind-the-ear, slimline hearing aids I'm interested in. I think it will be worthwhile to invest in the "premium" version since I can afford them. So, that's done, and I'm free until time for Tea & Rockets at 5 o'clock. It's sunny out again, although partly cloudy, so maybe I should get the trike out again before it starts raining? Or maybe not. I don't want to risk getting caught in a shower since getting the battery wet could be a disaster.
