It's always surprising to look out and see a bluebird.  Their color is so striking it always makes me stop to watch for a bit.

My husband is refurbishing one of the arcade machines to sell.

Today my husband replaced the alternator in my van.

This woodpecker comes to our feeder.  He will bob back and forth and tweet, then peck out some food.  Then he'll start swaying again and chirp before eating more.

January 25, 2020

My van was getting loud.  My husband replaced the muffler today.  Now he complains he can't hear me coming and going.

We got the first round of rock polishing done.  Most of this is going back in for the next round of grit.

With Microsoft no longer supporting Windows 7 I decided it was time for a new computer, as that would be cheaper than someone hacking into my bank because of a computer virus.  I'm not sure I like the clear side for the tower, not to mention it has red LED lights shining inside, but it seems that many decent computers come that way now.  I suppose I will get used to it.  I also got a new monitor.  It will probably take a month before I have everything set up how I like.

My wrist has been hurting lately so I got a new keyboard and mouse.

We finally started our rock tumbler.  These are the rocks we put inside.  Some are ones we found around here (quartz and granite) and the rest we got from a rock shop.

We 3-D printed some barrels for a game and painted them.
