This morning I met my parents at Jakes Moon for breakfast π³ then came home and rode the excerise bike for a few while, then went to Walmart to buy groceries and out to my parents house for dinner. π I fixed the loose chain π on the excerise bike π² so now it doesn’t keep coming loose and rides much better than before. Worked on some blog posts πand then went for my evening walk πΆ.
Ever since I did the hard reset on my phone and reinstalled the software it’s been working great. π±Much faster now πwith many software updates, and I’m very impressed with the performance.

Today in 1989, Twelve European Community nations agree to ban the production of all chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) by the end of the century.π I think you can say that they were mostly successful on this although occasionally you hear about CFC releases into the atmosphere from the new sources, the hole in the ozone is healing itself. π
I do get annoyed when people get all political on Facebook. πI know that the temptation is to respond back but the smarter option is just to hide the post from those people πbut that’s sometimes harder than you would think. The nice thing about the blog is I have complete control over the content and commenting is limited to only certain sections of the blog. π For years I didnβt allow any comments on the blog at all. πI do allow some now though. Blog posts are a better format for sharing ideas even if it means fewer eye π balls.
