An ice cream truck is visiting the complex across the street and started out with “You are my sunshine…” Which is sweet because my 90 something across the hall neighbor, Sunshine, died last night. She had been in failing health ever since I moved in – she has lived here a very long time and was much loved by the old timers – staff and resident alike. She was always nice to me and for some reason put a card I sent her from Hawai’i on her door.
Rainbow today. And, a fine insect as well.
This is a pretty good size wasp. Wing span of 15mm or so. And, they sting. Even the males. Males don’t have any venom – but they still have an impressive stinger which will get your attention.
Work. Nap. Bug hunt. Tweak the new computer. Thats about it for the day. Final trick was getting a stupid little “timer app” moved over to the new machine. I have used it for 10 years. I just like it. Of course it is no longer supported or available from any site that I would trust. It might be available from a non-US App Store. I considered firing up my VPN and running my internet through somewhere in Europe – and try to download the little thing. But, that didn’t seem too wise. So, I just copied it from Airness 2 to Forbin via Dropbox. Now I have my stupid little timer – and Forbin is just how I want it to be. Yes, Laurent – it is fussy, but I am all happy with it now. I just “had” to have that little timer. I tried to leave it behind – but it was an oldie but goodie.
I am currently operating in the if you can not say anything nice don’t say anything at all mode where the Orange Lord is concerned. The horror is too great. Focus on that rainbow!
