Today I relax, swim, and cycle. How is your Friday the 13th shaping up?

I will probably head to Montana tomorrow. Today, I relax, swim, cycle, MyLot, and read. I solved my truck problem, and even got my Microsoft issue resolved. Once I Pay my credit card bill (next "errand" for the day) I am free for about 10 days. What are you up to on the sunny and hot Friday the 13th? Are you superstitious at all?

I am picking and freezing beans and trying to think of Birthday gifts for 10 and 16 year old nephews. Went shopping and came home with nothing.

May I recommend Hot Wheels cars? At least for the younger one.

@TheHorse I know his dad loved those! Thanks for the suggestion. I did get them each a gift card for DQ, but want to actually give a gift.

@TheHorse Not really. And I don't really know how to swim.

Sounds like a good day and better one heading out to Montana today!! Hope you have a great time. Not really superstitious but my husband is. He had a car fall on him years ago and it had jackstands up under it also. Really freak accident. He was lucky that he was only bruised from the weight of the car. He was always aware for many years of when Friday fell on the 13th. He didn't realize yesterday was the 13th until almost midnight when I said something.

@TheHorse Yes, he has remembered it through all these years. I was surprised he hadn't mentioned it. It was right at midnight when I said, "today was Friday the 13th!"

Probably a good thing that you didn't tell him until later.

I have a lot to do today because the groceries came. If I were superstitious, I´d say some devilish things happened. The shopper brought me lots of beets. I am glad they last a lot.

@TheHorse I have never had a canned beet in my life. I buy them fresh, cook them in the pressure cooker and eat them diced with oil, lots of lemon juice, salt and fresh cilantro leaves.

Fresh beets? I tend to buy them canned. They are good in salads.

I am not exactly superstitious except for a few things here and there - and trivial ones. So what was the problem with the Truck? Yesterday, on 13th, I had some work outside home. Plus some important work meetings in the morning. Nothing special. But it was quite late - around 1:30 in the night when I went to sleep. Now I am trying to be more active here today.

Ran into a little bad luck going to the store, but I don't think the day of the week has anything to do with it.

I used to be superstitious but then I got my Lucky Astrology Mood Ring. It protects me from all bad luck and misfortune. Except for financial misfortune. I'm still down to my last $1.5 trillion.

I finally talked (online) to a tech in the Philippines who was able to help me. A newer version of word had been accidentally installed (I don't know how) that defeated the original version. He was able to delete it.
