Random Ramblings - August 19th 2022

One of my friends from the ACB community, whose name is Kolby, is being featured in a mini series on YouTube about how she enjoys Nascar as a blind person.  And let me tell you, she's a huge Nascar fan.  The first episode of the mini series premiered on Wednesday, and you can watch it by clicking here.

The weather keeps being hot.  I’m always grateful for those days in between heat waves when it rains some and the temperature drops to a more comfortable range.  I’m also grateful to be here in the Welsh mountains, where temperatures above 35C have yet to make themselves known.  Unlike in some parts of the UK, where it’s been 40C at times.  Even temperatures in the high 20s and low 30s are more than I’d like to be dealing with, but I’m glad we haven’t had to deal with worse.  But please tell me we’ll be feeling the cool temperatures of Autumn soon… Autumn and Winter are coming, right? *looks hopeful*

I’ve been sat here a while trying to figure out what I have to fill you in on from the past couple of weeks.  But it’s more difficult than you might expect.  It’s not that I haven’t done anything.  I mean, I always have a lot going on these days.  The thing is, most of it can be summed up just by telling you I’ve been busy doing stuff with the ACB.  Between co-facilitating the “Free To Be Me” call with Patty on Thursdays and “Herbie’s Cooking Corner” with Herbie on Tuesdays, my roles on the ACB Presents morning crew, the things I’m doing with the ACB Crafters, and hosting some calls, I have something going on every day.  Between being on those calls – as well as some I attend just as a participant - I’ve been trying to catch up on my reading, and doing some de-cluttering, the latter of which resulted in me donating most of my physical audiobooks to the local library (since I've got a lot of them in digital form as well anyhow).  I’m sure you can imagine how delighted they were to have six large boxes of audiobooks donated to them, since the libraries over here don’t tend to have much in the way of audiobooks, and certainly don’t get many audiobook donations.

Since I’m sure that covers what’s been going on around here lately, and I can’t think of anything else to say right now, I’m going to let this do for today.  If it turns out I missed catching you up on something, I’ll let you know about it another time.  In the meantime, I hope all is well in your world.
