This was another busy day. Went to South Hills to the train shop to get brass tubing for the microwave. This was painful. The moron running the cash register was painfully slow and blind. He needed a magnifier to see anything and overcharged me for the brass tube. It was supposed to be 4.89 but he charged 5.20. I complained but it would be too painful to have him check the price on the display. I won't be going back there anytime soon. From there I went to RTP and took a tour of TechShop. This place is too expensive for what they have. In addition, the Shopbot CNC seems to use their own proprietary CAD program. I would rather use some open source software to lay out the panel. The bottom line is I decided it would be cheaper to buy my own CNC or better yet, find the company in St Pete that does this. I came home and went over to the library for a 2 PM program called the Deadly Diva's, which was a panel of 5 mystery writers. I enjoyed the program and got some new insight into their writing craft. This was an interesting bunch of women from all over the country. Dinner this evening was turkey with all the fixings including stuffing, mashed potatoes, and lima beans. I forgot to break open the cranberries. Thank goodness there was no wine in the house. I started the blood pressure meds today and surprisingly I think I'm seeing results. Have not really experienced side effects yet. Blood pressure readings several times during the day was in the 120's. Wow, this is a miracle drug.
