At 8:20 tonight I finally bought a PS4 Pro and 'No Man's Sky'. Guess I finally got tired of watching everyone else play it on line.

It'll take a wile to learn the controller. Last one i held was connected to a Nintendo. Used it to play Mario and Tetris. Ya, it's been a long time for me. Still haven't got it hooked up. The flat screen TV I have is around 20 years old. Most of it's connections are RCA jacks. Really hope this works on it. If not I'll end up getting a newer TV. For the price i paid for this small TV I could get a really nice one now. But we'll cross that bridge if it's needed later. Time to get things set up. Then I can spend time walking around and enjoying the scenery. Chill out, relax and do nothing the game wants me to.

Looks like it'll be the weekend before I'll be able to set the play station up. I need an ethernet cable. I'll have to make a forty mile round trip just to get a single cable.

The last thing I bought was Lysol Injectable. KIDDING ! Do not do that!!

The last thing I bought for real was a flexible antenna for my handheld 440MHz ham 2-way radio. Diamond RH77CA for half price at TheAntennaFarm.com
The last thing I bought that was actually needed was gasoline.

Just had to buy a used lawn mower. Both my rider and push mower need major work. Really tired of paying big bucks for mowers that don't last.

One dozen large Grade A eggs.

Hopefully it isn't the "last " thing I buy ever, but I bought 20feet of 1/2 copper water pipe for an amazing $12

I remember deep impact, that one was pretty good!

I last bought some grass seed. Trying to grow green fuzz on this dust I call a back yard.

Jade, mix a bit of instant tea with that grass seed. The extra nitrogen will help it grow.

22 tubes of Golden Open acrylic paint. Ordered on line. They were out of a few colors I need so I'll be ordering a few more next month.

A lawnmower

Then I figured out how to fix my old one.
Then I promptly returned the new lawnmower. I am not made of money!

Bought the Dr. Who episode "SHADA" on DVD today. Found it at a used bookstore for $20. It's a 3-disc set. To the best of my knowledge, this is the only Dr. Who episode that was never finished being made/produced.
