My parents said that i’d seen them when i was a toddler.
I don’t remember.
I was hoping that this last CME near miss would coincide with a cloud free night here, but it was a miss.

Without their public faces on, they can be hard to identify.

I am sure that translates to “Confound it, Cleo”.

Ho much insurance does Cleo have on him?
How do you prove that a heart attack wasn’t murder?

Claude (and Cleo) needs to realize that turnabout is fair play. Cleo fancies herself a nap-master. Test her. Just in the interest of science, of course.

My Boring Sunday bit (and you thought you were safe 😜 ) :
Starting weight: 184 lbs.  /  Goal weight: 145 lbs. (-39 lbs.)  /  Weight lost to last week: 6.2 lbs. (32.8 lbs. left)
39 lbs. = 1,259.6923828125 in.3 of me to lose.
32.2998046875 in.3 /lb. butter × 6.2 lbs. = 200.258789062 in.3 of me lost to last week. (1,059.4335937505 in.3 of me to lose left).

 
Last week’s weight: 177.8 lbs.  /  Goal weight today: 176.3lbs.)
I am now 175.8 lbs.
177.8 lbs.  –  175.8 lbs  =  2.0 lbs.
32.8 lbs.  –  2.0 lbs.  =  30.8 lbs. (balance of desired loss to reach 145 lbs.)
32.2998046875 in.3 / lb. butter  ×  2.0 lbs.  =  64.599609375 in³ of me lost this week.
200.258789062 in.3  +  64.599609375 in³  =  264.858398437 in.3 of me lost to date (994.8339843755 in.3 to go)
175.8 lbs. lbs.  –  1.5 lbs.  =  174.3 lbs.  (next Sunday’s goal weight)
 
This week’s blither:
Again, the weather has not been cooperating for outdoor exercise (time on Trikke is 0 hrs. again this week) Monday was fine, but overly windy for a Trikke ride, so I walked for around 2.3 kilometres instead (the “around” bit comes because I used a trip odometer to drive as closely as possible the route I followed after I finished / the 2.3 kms. registered can’t possibly be exact). I then went to a couple of malls for the rest of Monday, Tuesday to Friday were blecchh!, but Saturday was a good day for an outdoor walk in the morning. The afternoon would have been good for a Trikke ride, but I’d already done my walk with enough hill climbs that my legs were sore.
My step counter says I did 28,779 steps this week (its stride calibration function moves up by increments greater than one / my stride falls between). Next week is supposed to be good all week long so I should get my rides in.
Week five has ended, week six is beginning. I’ve added two exercises and some more “weight” to the regimen.

Is anyone else having trouble opening C&C? I first tried at 9am-ish. I tried several times through the day and only finally got it to load now (9pm).

Not the first time – happened to me the day before, too.
Maintenance?
