I wonder if I should borrow this machine for the coming weekend, because we may set the place afire. Kicked it off last night with a University of Maryland basketball victory. The party continues today with a slight pause to play with my grandson tomorrow morning.

Saturday and Sunday are full of hobby plans and possibilities. I do know the Miata will hit the road for our club meet.

The week has been a success because of one thing. A family member finally reached out for the first time in a while. I’m glad, they have had a tough life. A little communication to start and hopefully continue. All you can do is hope.

I’m giving the benefit of the doubt at all times because I haven’t suffered the pain/trama they have. I also try not to take them stepping away unexplained for short or long term periods personally. That is difficult sometimes.

I’m not ignoring the recent events. Just trying to find words.
