350th day sober. I got 15 Ebay things listed and got some practice in. High notes are still suffering. I guess it was no trumpet practice for months on end, practicing flute instead, and then going into a fairly full busking schedule. I'll just keep the practice up and that should fix things.
I packed some things and got going about 5:30. First stop was 99 Ranch, where I bought a few things and got $60 cash back. Then I went to the post office and dropped off my packages and took a break, having a bag of boiled peanuts and a can of black coffee, both from 99 Ranch.
Then I went back in and bought a money order for $47, which I'm sending off to Tim Wendt for two of his trumpet swabs. One to use and one to hide away for later.
I stopped by the medical place and their dumpster was out but all I found was an Amazon bubble mailer. Then I went to the storage and got into the 2nd-floor unit I *can* get into, and did a lot of re-arranging of things and got out a bunch of things to list.
Tom was "home" so I visited with him for a bit. We had some good old laughs and it's kind of semi back on the schedule again that I'll bring my trumpet with me and we'll have some practice on Monday evenings.
I checked the dumpster over on the other side of here where I often find tape, and today's freebee is: a pair of Adidas "The Road" cycling shoes, so new the laces are still in that weird configuration new shoes come with and the tags are still on. They go for $100 on Ebay so I'll probably put them on Craig's List.
I got back here and cooked up 8 oz. (burp!) of Whole Foods hamburger and garlic and broccoli, garnished it with some Kewpie mayo and ate that. That's the way to eat, really. I have a cucumber later for a snack, and while the boiled peanuts were pretty nice they're too carby for my present diet so that's a one-time thing.
