I am not a huge investor. I don’t really have that sort of a gambler’s instinct. Ok, I suck at gambling. Which is weird. Because I usually think of myself as a lucky person. I mean, seriously, look at my life and tell me I haven’t been a lucky SOB. Anyway, as I said, I am not a huge investor. I own a couple of stocks. And a few pieces of some funds. I have the funds and one stock mostly because of dividends. I like free money. Even if it only comes in teeny dribs and drabs. Better than no dribs and drabs. But some of those funds aren’t really producing much in the way of dividends. Now, the question I have for the investment savvy – do I sell the underperforming funds when they are in the green in terms of share price, so I make a little money from them? Or do I sell the underperforming ones that are in the red, to dodge any sort of possible tax on capital gains? I am leaning towards the former. But it is of course moot, since it is Sunday as I write this.

Fler!

It’s funny, just when I think we are at a good place with the GLO mailing list, I get a note and call from GR saying that she sees dead people. She asked about the provenance of the list and I told her my understanding of it. She is going through it again and will eventually send me a list of people that ought to be taken off of the list. Since every name on there costs GLO money when it comes time to do a snail mail mailing. As we are preparing to do for this year’s production: Falstaff. I hope she gets it done earlier rather than later…(Looks like it will be Monday)

Ah, so, as usual, the day did not turn out as planned. Big surprise. I had thought another trip to Auburn was going to be in the cards (I had even picked out a new to me restaurant to try (At Long Last is the name – anyone know anything about it?)), but it did not happen. We still might go on Monday. Time will tell. Instead, I mostly read. I did at least empty the sink of dishes. Go me. I still have the glassware to wash, but I will get to that tonight.

After lunch, I managed to get out and cut down more junk trees. Goodness there are a lot of them about. I let them stay were they fell. I will take them to the pile of trees in the back after they have died a bit. Less drag I would think from dead trees than live ones. I also trimmed the yew in the front yard a bit – in anticipation of the eventual gravelification (I made this up) of part of the front yard. And that’s about it. Read and cut down a few trees. Woo hoo! Aren’t I the one to accomplish a lot!

I completely forgot that I played for an hour or two! I finished two sub-quests and did some work in the the Room of Requirement. Go me! Maybe I will play for another hour tonight. In between episodes of Ginny and Georgia. What a weird show! I watched the first two seasons so why not watch the third and see what happens. The last episode ended on a bit of a cliff hanger. Which is how most of the episodes end actually.

Tonight I am going to have more of the lasagna for my meal. Last night it made for an easy dinner and was tasty enough. The lasagna was a bit too liquid though. Not sure there were actual layers of lasagna noodles. Maybe when I take the pan out of the freezer to cut up into smaller portions, I will see how it was put together. It was that or make myself breakfast for dinner. But that would take a lot more effort. So, lasagna it will be!
