The roses are blooming. I don't remember exactly what the cultivar is, but they're very hardy and fragrant. They produce hips that can be used to make tea and a variety of other products. The hips are very high in vitamin C. These require zero care - no special care like most roses do.
I cleaned up and sorted the sockets yesterday. The first three rows in the foreground are metric. A set of 1/4", 3/8" and 3/8" deep well. The ones on the zip tie are 1/4" SAE. The ones in the rear are 3/8" drive, a full set made by Blackhawk, a few oddball ones and a few deep well. There were also a few extra metric ones that I threw in the drawer with the rest of the metric tools. I've got all of these in the shop and in the garage, except the metric deepwells. I've only got one set of those, so now I'll have a set in both toolboxes and I'll put a 3/8" drive set in both metric and SAE in the bucket down the basement. Actually worked out quite well.
I got the fee paid to the FCC for my Amateur Radio license yesterday. When trying to log in it wouldn't accept my password even though I made sure to write it down when setting up the account. Since it wouldn't accept it, I tried to change it. Following the instructions on the FCC website, they said they sent me a link to use to initiate the change. However, nothing came through. I called my internet provider to see if it went into quarantine, but nope. Next step was to call the FCC help line. As soon as I told the man what I was having trouble with, he said the problem was on their end and they were working on a fix at the present time - try again in a couple of hours. I finally got through a few hours later and got the fee paid. Only thing left is my call sign.
Another test this morning to try and get the chest thing figured out. I'm not holding out much hope for a solution and I've got to be there at 6:25 this morning. Seems to me the same test could be given at 9:00, but it is what it is.
