the "What are you doing NOW" thread (part deux)

Hmmm, just learned it's Palindrome WEEK and the claim this is the last one this century is BS, as we have one in January, 2021...

Feel like your life is going backward? Maybe that's because it's Palindrome Week, meaning that each day's date, if delivered in American numerical format, can be read the same forward and backward.

The number-fun actually lasts more than just one week. Tuesday is 9-10-19, which backward is... 9-10-19. That formula continues with 9-11-19, 9-12-19, 9-13-19, 9-14-19, 9-15-19, 9-16-19, 9-17-19, 9-18-19 and finally, 9-19-19.

The pattern doesn't hold if you write your dates with the day first, as the Brits and Aussies do, but they'll have to make their own palindromes. "Tacocat" works, or "A Santa Lived As a Devil At NASA," if you want to get creative about it.


There's been a Palindrome Week every year since 2011, but enjoy this one while you can. As Time and Date notes, "every century has nine years with 10 Palindrome Days in a row. These years are always in the second decade of the century." The next time this neat number game appears is in 2021.
 
Improved but not better

Mike, any tick bites lately? I ask because just about everyone I know here in your line of business has had to deal with Lyme Disease and everyone with a dog has taken Fido at least 2 times to the Vet because of it. And it's just not Lyme anymore, you've got to consider babesiosis and anaplasmosis infections as well...

No ticks bites on me, a few crawling on my pants but no bites
 
just finished power washing the side of the house where the gas lines are going to be set up for the stove that I bought - when I removed the bush that was there - my oh my was there a lot of gunk on the siding

after I finished that I decided to see what Homey Depot had for downspout extensions & bought 6 of 'em (needed to replace all around the property - all pretty best up) - so I go online -find what I'm looking for & try to place the order but can't get past the credit card information - asks me for one thing - I enter it & it then removes all of the other information I enter

went round robin trying to enter the info like six times - gave up - went to Homey Depot chat

she helped me (site having issues today) - sent me a secure form to fill out the card info - did it - sent it back to her & confirmed in chat that is was done

her response - "Awesome"

I wanted ask her why?
