I’m working from home today so I took some time this afternoon to take the glass out of one of the new garage carriage lights and put the white sign vinyl on the inside of the glass. I think it made a huge difference.
I only did one so I can compare after dark and decide if I need to add a second layer for further dimming.

wake up
96 chevy wont start cold. Put charger on and plugged in block heater too.
Got it running and warmed it up. Coolant temp sensor reading 28 f. engine was 180 or more. Replace sensor, plugs and gas filter. Runs like a top. I like these old vortec engines.

Well, it’s after dark and I checked the lights. Much better, but needs a second layer of vinyl. I did a test with a second sheet on the outside and it seems like it will be perfect.
I will have to wait until the weekend to get back to it again, too much work stuff going on.

So coworker of mine pulled a score. He took 2k and I guess last week sometime, short sold a bunch of stocks, cleared 30k this morning. Wouldn’t believe it if I didn’t see his account first hand.
So a customer stopped by. Also a councillor for the local municipality.
Asked me to join a committee for a new event.
Late summer show n shine and swap meet.
A couple garages, parts store, reps from the rec district.
A fund raiser for a yet to be determined good cause.
There are a lot of guys around here with piles of parts and stuff.
Not many swap meets here in manitoba.

Went for a haircut after work, the young lady that runs the place is such a redneck. Hilarious to chat with. I know her dad quite well,i know where she gets it from. 20 dollar haircut with free entertainment. Worth every penny.

Well, this makes me very proud of my daughter!
One of her art pieces was nominated by her school to be entered into the National Congressional Art Contest for 2020. Only 2 works of art are allowed to be entered per school.
This is her piece, a collage created with clippings from magazines of our dog Sparky.
She’s just a freshman in a new High School and she got nominated. Wow!
The nut didn’t fall very far from the tree!

I agree! She is incredibly good at this, but doesn’t realize how good she is.
She did this sketch a few weeks ago, 20” x 30” called “Introspection”
It is so good I could teach an entire class on it....but she thinks it’s just a doodle.
I wish I could doodle like that, have no skills when it comes to that!
I have had no problems with the gopro. I have only used FilmoraGo for cell phone editing and I am in the process of using Kdenlive.

The school just sent the forms to release the piece for entry into the contest. Seems there are scholarships involved. Would be cool if she pulls one!
This from the web page for the contest...
“Students entries are submitted to their representative’s office, and panels of district artists select the winning entries. Winners are recognized both in their district and at an annual awards ceremony in Washington, DC. The winning works are displayed for one year at the U.S. Capitol.”
How cool is that!
To even be considered is an incredible honor.

So, my work decided that they want to consider new formulation options for one of our products.
Yesterday, I met with the Chief Scientific executive from the Board of Directors and discussed what I thought was the best approach. He asked me to put together a proposed design matrix.
I sent him the matrix I came up with today from my own thought process and found out later that he hired a computer design software company to come up with one too as a comparison.
After they took their computer output design and mine back into the software for evaluation, they found out that their design had an 85% confidence level of meaningful results while mine had a 98% confidence level.
Funny that!
I guess experience beats an algorithm this time!

I'm making one more set of changes on my Amazon cam...and then I'm just going to upgrade my cell phone if that's a wash.
Sent you a pm.
Evening all
This boat is swaying bad tonight. That cold front sent some bad wind and high waves this time.
