The wind continues to blow but there is some melting.
The coffee is hot.
Another day when I am not sure of my activities. I am shying away from the serious Learning involved in Mathematics and Technology. Not sure why.
Model Trains continues to attract me. I will spend a little time working on assembling the two grain trucks for my layout. This has turned out to be much easier than I expected. I may even try tackling the wiring for the turntable.
Literature: I need to identify my next book. I am leaning toward two: one is a 12th century sufi "poem" (similar to Dante and Milton) by Attar called "The Conference of the Birds". This will be slow going but looks to be well worth it. I also want a light novel. ... Found one: "The Magicians" by Lev Grossman. This is a novel I bought while in New York last fall.
It is difficult for me to remove the Mathematics and Technology items from the following table, but I must be realistic. Hopefully I will reinsert them soon.
