I know I haven't done much on the blog this week. I've been kind of running out of steam. Also I had to work today (Saturday). One Saturday overtime per month isn't too bad. It gives me just enough extra money to make the payment on the new air conditioner that I hadn't planned on buying just yet but had to anyway.
I've also just started playing around with some freeware called Page Plus SE--the non-pro version--which is a desktop publishing program. Several years ago I put together a sort of chapbook using nothing but Word. It was a major ordeal, and in a computer crash (the old desktop) I lost all my custom formatted templates that I had made. I'm hoping this Page Plus will make recreating the book a little easier. I do still have a few copies of the old book still laying around here. I think I managed to print up 7 or 8 copies.
Today I broke out an old fanny pack to try carrying work stuff in. It's from Uncle Mike's, and is blue denim, like jeans. Has a velcro quick-release pouch for a handgun, plus two other compartments. Today I just carried a flashlight, my cell phone and some Sqwinchers in it, but it was actually pretty comfortable and didn't get in the way like I thought it would. I've had it for years. One of those things I bought to try out and never got around to it. Now I'll have to see if it's easily washable. It should be, since it's just denim. I don't suppose washing will damage velcro, will it? I think it would probably be a good idea just to hang dry it, and not put it in the drier. I wouldn't want the velcro to get full of lint.
Maybe I'll come up with something more pertinent tonight, after I've had a nap.
