Good Grief !!!!

I'm sure I read or heard a recent new report sayin that $4.00 gallon gasoline wasn't gonna happen this year.  A couple weeks ago it was $3.54 around here.  About a week ago it went up to $3.72.  Today it is $3.85.  I think I got some of the last 3.72 gas in town this morning.  I went by Main Stop where it was 3.72 on the way to Wal Mart and Chief for boxes.  Still lookin for a couple of a specific size.  Circle K was advertising 3.85.  I said heck with the boxes and went back to Main Stop.  I got my credit card swiped as Melissa came out of the store with the dreaded 'clicker' to change the price to 3.85.  I won big this morning playin the slots on the gas pumps.  Why go to the casinos to play the slots when ya can  do it here . . . 

Unlike yesterday, my head seemed to be clear and my hands steady, so I went to the garage and started up my wood lathe.  Turned three inlay pens with no problems.  Decided not to push my luck and do more.  It was a  case of gettin more done by doing nothing. 

While I was out there I noticed the black canvas bag hanging on the door going into the house.  It occurred to me that my camera tripod might be inside it.  I checked and it was.  I've been lookin for that thing all winter.  I figgered I had been lookin at it but not seein it. Now I'm hopin I don't forget where I saw it last  . . . again . . .
