Behind again!

Sunday

It was a pretty laid back day around here Sunday, I did some wiring on the Viking, then when I tested it, I found out those two little fans have quite a bit of thrust!  I had it on my lap, hooked up the battery and it almost flew off my lap, surprised the heck out of me.  The next time, I put a speed control in and ran it up slowly!  I watched the last 50 laps of the Daytona race.  The last lap was exciting, there were two sets of wrecks, one on the back stretch and one just before the finish line, cars were going across the finish line backwards, sideways, every way you can imagine.  Barry called, he had been to the Arizona NHRA Nationals today, the guy he went with saw Barry during the coverage on ESPN, it was the first time Barry had ever been to a drag race.  They were in the VIP section and had a great view of everything.  I had big plans to finish up the CD, DVD project for Vera's classmates today, but I discovered there were no labels, so that was put on hold until Monday.  I settled into my chair and spent the evening watching the Great Race with Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon, I don't know how many times I have watched it, but I enjoy it every time!  They just don't make movies like that anymore.

Monday

Right after breakfast, we headed to Office Max for labels, then over to Office Depot for some printable DVD's.  When we got home, I printed up the labels, Vera put them on, I put the DVD's and CD's in and we went down and mailed them.  I had to put a customs declaration on one going to Mexico, funny, because they only cost 25 cents each.   I made a trip over to see the twins, Ava decided I needed a cinnamon roll, then insisted Steve get me a "BIG" plate!  They each had one with me, maybe that was the reason?  I fitted a couple of servos in the Viking, put wheel collars on and did some shop clean up as it is garbage day.  I did a short walk on the treadmill, the knee felt fine, but I did not want to overdo it.
