Good afternoon GH.  Wow, it really is afternoon again.  Not bad.  I went to the ENT again today because my ear just doesn't feel right, but he found nothing amiss.  I don't know why, but I just feel like something is wrong in my ear, but he says there isn't anything obvious.  He may be right, that I am sensitive to my ears feeling weird because of all the ear problems I have had over the years.  So, I think I will wait a bit longer and then see how I feel.  It is just that I am having these headaches, and once you have had a neurosurgeon poking around in your head, you become acutely aware of things that are in or about your head.  So, I called the neurosurgeon here, well actually in GR, to make sure I am set up for another follow up MRI.  I don't want to take any chances.  Otherwise, the day has been pretty much walking with Sugar, raking the leaves, and now I am about to play my guitar.  I did stop at the library to turn in a couple of books and to pick up one I had on hold.  This new one is about various generals of the Army and how effective they have or have not been.  Let's just say, that the early parts of the book are not that complimentary of the generals in WWII.  I doubt that being an officer or a general is an easy job, but if you can't stand the heat of battle, then get out of the war.  A nice turn of a phrase I think.  Otherwise, I went down to the man cave and modified a wall plate that has a built in digital thermometer, so that it would fit behind the moulding in my office/music room.  Currently, the temperature on the outdoor thermometer mounted outside my window is about 34 degrees, while the temperature on the desktop is showing 33 degrees.  So, as I noted yesterday, they are about equal.  My wall mounted thermometer is showing  69 degrees here in my room.  That thermometer was one I received with my energy audit kits, and it looks fine on the wall, now that it has been modified to fit.  Meanwhile, Mary is hard at work in her office, as I finished my first task of highlighting the book she is indexing.  It took me 17.5 hours, and Mary isn't sure if that saved any time.  But, I like to think that that is time she didn't have to work on it, and if I can help in that way, then I will.  Now, all that I have to do is edit her final output.  So, until it is time for NCIS later, I am going to play some.  Oh, did I mention that I am still finding a tell tale trail of white and tan dog hair on my keyboard.  I will have to get to the bottom of that one of these days.  So for now, Ciao.
