Did get to Bloomington. Did get inside several stores to look at desks and computer tables. Did decide on one, a new black glass topped computer desk with lots of leg and knee room. From Sams, of all places. Not meant to be my last stop but turned out it was. Oh, except for the stop over at Eric's north of Odon - he was gone but his dog Sandy greeted me with plenty of bluster. Got home in plenty of time to get the desk out of the packing and start the assemble, something which was finished after dinner (a scrumptious lasagna).
Diane did get to town where she caught up with Wilma and did a spot of shopping.
One other thing about the new desk: going to try real hard to become a paperless kind of guy. Certainly have enough going on inside the computer to make that a reality: calendars, emails, news and punditry, sports. Paper, on the other hand, has been a pretty steady companion over the years. Have given up print magazines for the most part; daily print newspapers as well. Get an occasional bill in the mail but for the most part they are just telling me that an automatic withdrawal is going to take place. Lots of catalogs but I'm finding that there too I'm finding things easier online; so away with them as well (Diane has been steadily contacting the catalog people to stop their delivery - another way to be green...). So, less paper, less clutter. Lets give it a go. (Sounds soemthing like a resolution, doesn't it? Oh well...)
Gotta go to bed, day has been too full and too long. Good thing about it all - should sleep verrrry well.
Reminder: John Foddrill memorial service 1 pm Saturday at the Westminster Presbyterian Church in Washington.
