Today Is Friday, September 13, 2024: This Is What Happened.



I have no idea how many paintings of John the Baptist's beheading there are. For some reason, one is called the FEAST OF HEROD. This painting is by LUCAS CRANACH, THE ELDER. Here are some more of his works.

I have played with the idea of doing some so-called religious art. I know this would be a way down the road. The only one I came up with so far is Ruth and Naomi. More is done in a modern setting.


Murphy and I went to the senior center for lunch. They serve taco spaghetti with roasted veggies, which I thought was yummy. They also had a small green salad and champagne fruit salad.

We also went to the dump after the senior center.


Yesterday, I went to the library to see how to get some photos of my phone. Hopefully, sometime in 2025, I can purchase a new phone with more gigs. 16 gigs just aren't enough. I am still working on getting the credit card paid down. We needed to buy a lawn mower, and the house insurance came in handy, all at the same time.



Coffee is on.

  3. It became a joke for us in the mid eighties after seeing a film or a play, and if walking into a room with a plate of snacks or whatever, we would hold he plate up high and say, "I bring you the head of John the Baptist".

    Your phone doesn't have a memory card? They seem to have stopped having them in phones now.

    1. I back up my photos in the cloud. Gives me much more space on the phone

  5. Expenses always pop up right when you don't want them. I mostly use my camera instead of my phone, because sometimes the phone photos don't all show when I plug it into the laptop, they just show as blank squares so I don't know what that particular photo is. The camera has a 32gigabyte SD card to there's plenty of space on it and when I connect it to the laptop every photo shows so I can select the ones I want to transfer.

  8. We have had several huge expenses this year, the largest of which was the water heater. That is the worst about staying in our own home as we age!

  9. Yeah, expenses always come at the worst times. I don't "do" phone so I can't help you with photos on your phone. Have a nice day today.

  10. It's hard to keep up with everything, isn't it? Can you back your phone up to cloud storage and then download it from there? That's what I do with my phone's photos. I take the photo on the phone. Then I log into the cloud on my laptop, and I can download the photo from that.

  11. My phone is such a piece of crap. I can take pictures with it but the pictures are terrible and I have no space like you. So I bought a digital camera to take pictures with.

First day of winter in the northern hemisphere. As I look out my window the world is foggy. Today I'm going to take part in two memes. ...
