Thanks for starting the Daily, Lorell.

That's a gorgeous still life; the quality of the light and the variety of values is top-notch, thanks to your skill and artistic judgement at painting with light.

You wrote that you'll feel bad when you cook them. But it looks like one egg (front row, far left) has already been cracked. That's not meant as a criticism of the image - few would notice it, and I think it adds a little something to the photo.

Sorry but I have no photos to post. It's been a busy, and frustrating few days:

1) I've been trying since Monday to help my wife make a contribution to her SEP IRA retirement plan, by transferring money from my bank account to her retirement account. I've talked to both the bank (Wells Fargo) and the investment company (Fidelity) several times and gotten different info from both, depending on how experienced the customer service reps were. Fidelity detailed exactly how I need to make the transfer, but the Wells Fargo says they can't do it that way. So today I'll go to the bank and get a cashiers check payable to Fidelity. then we have to drive to a local Fidelity office to give them the check and make sure they apply it to the right investment account.

2) It was brutally hot here yesterday, with new records set all over the area from the mountains to the beaches. My thermometer (in the shade just outside my front door) reached 95 F (35 C), and they're saying today could be even hotter.

3) Doing more gardening labor (digging up sections of the yard to remove unwanted invaders, breaking down the soil, and mixing in garden soil and amendments) has left with me a very sore back.

Still, I wake each day on the right side of the grass, sometimes seeing a beautiful sunrise, other times enjoying a pleasant walk in cool early morning fog, often delighted to hear the birds singing joyfully as if they're gratefully greeting the new day.

Don't blame me - I didn't vote for him!
