Make that 21 Sudoku worked. This one 15 to 20 minutes, one session on the snow birds nest.

Off to see a Buick.

Maybe plastic vent covers?

I should be under the house looking for squeaks.

My UBS light, I customised it by adding a white BIC pen barrel on the end of the light. The light shines down the length of the barrel making the entire length glow. Looks like a baby florescent light. This is to spread the light out, light the entire keyboard, soften it, and cut down on the glare. Seems to be working OK.

The Cicada are singing tonight!

Cicada, large, noise-producing insect of the order Homoptera, with a stout body, a wide, blunt head, protruding eyes, and two pairs of membranous wings. The front wings, which are longer than the rear pair, extend beyond the insect's abdomen. Male cicadas have plate like membranes on the thorax, which they vibrate like drum heads, producing a loud, shrill sound. Females of most species are mute. Characteristic songs are produced by members of different species; each also produces a noise indicating irritation, and some have special courtship songs.
