My Dailies 2014
This is my daily journal like page where back in September of 2006 I decided to start writing down my thoughts
for every day in my web site here.
Also, there is a place called: “My Dirty Dailies”,.. for those days when I might use a little bad language. The button
to get in is sitting in this black area in the bottom right corner,.. and it requires a password to get in.
Here is a more convenient way to get over to my Video Archives page - My Videos ...

Today I practiced making home made pizza, mostly trying some things out with the sauce. A friend gave me this turn
table pizza maker machine and it’s just ideal for learning to make pizza. You can adjust how long it cooks on the
bottom burner and the top burner and dial it in just right. And I came up with my own recipe for a mexican spinach
side dish. Rice is always my least favorite item on my combination plate, so I thought I’d come up with something
that I would like better than rice. Taste like I got it too.
Also today I went to Louie’s Nursery and Smart & Final for a few things,.. did some gardening and fixed some micro
sprinklers. The gophers keep chewing holes in my sprinkler lines. Lately, every day there’s been a new hole created.
And I made some tomato cages for some of my tomato plants.
That’s about it for Saturday.

Today I went to the Vacuum repair shop and picked up my vacuum,.. went to Lowe’s and Smart & Final for a few
things,.. picked up some sacks of concrete from a job,.. tested my vacuum, then took it all apart and gave it a good
cleaning,.. the vacuum repair shop said that it was just a dirty filter,.. but when I took it apart I found there was lot’s
of dirt in and around the vacuum motor. I haven’t tested it since I cleaned it because I washed the top filter with
water and it needs to dry out very well before I can use it, but the vacuum was not working correctly when I brought
it home from the repair shop.
