It's a Salt-water Magnus 12'x23' above ground pool. Not sure when it will come. I am already getting a cement slab poured for it and have the pool assembly guy lined up. Just need an outdoor outlet on that side of the house.
Decided to put off a new desktop build in favor of getting a new laptop to also replace my 2017 non-Win 11 supported Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga X1 with this ThinkPad X1 Carbon
System Specs:
Processor: Intel® Core™ Ultra 7 165U vPro® Processor (E-cores up to 3.80 GHz P-cores up to 4.90 GHz) - selected upgrade

This pocket microscope is pretty cool. At full mag a strand of denim in my Levi's 501 jeans is about 1.25 inches wide.
At 1000X it definitely needs a stand. I just ordered this one...
I looked at all of them, including the ones with displays. I even checked out the microscopes at Celestron.
In the end... I just settled for cheap, portable and easy, because it's just an "eh, might be cool" buy.
I'm VERY near sighted, so without my glasses my eyes are like microscopes anyway.
But I'm gettin' old and I've noticed that I can't focus on really, really tiny things anymore.
It works really well, and I can view what it's seeing on the phone (wireless) or on the computer (USB).

I ordered some non-perishable food from Walmart, and had it shipped.
Eleven of the twelve items, came two days later like normal.
Via Fedex and packed like a blind drunk guy did it.
The twelfth item came in a shiny new Amazon box, from Amazon.
It even had the black Amazon packing tape... do, do, do, do.
The twelfth item was a 12 oz. jar of Heinz shrimp cocktail sauce.
/edit...
It gets even weirder. Very early this morning I got an email notifying me of the shipment of Heinz Cocktail Sauce.
The email came 16 or so hours "after" I received the item.
The email said it would arrive between 10:30 and 1:30 my time... today.
I had some errands to run. When finished and back home, I checked my email again.
It said the package was delivered at 11:26am at a... "parcel container".
So I called the post office, and they said... do you have a post office box or something?
I said no. So they checked the tracking number and said the package doesn't have "your" address on it.
I told them that makes sense, since I already got the package yesterday.
So then I called Walmart and asked them why I got an email today, for a package I received yesterday.
They didn't know why. So I explained everything in detail to them, and they said they'd make a note of it.
They also gave me a $25.00 credit on my next order... for any difficulties this had caused.
