I'm going to tinker with different soundcards I have, USB and PCI to see which is better at storing and playing audio from old vinyl records that I have.
What do/don't you have planned?

Depending on how my SuperArtGirl is feeling (only one more month of chemo to go!), I'll either be picking rocks and fixing the parking area at the cottage, or at home trying to get my little CNC router working from the Raspberry Pi.
We set up a woodworking area in the garage at the cottage, so I am hoping the CNC will be able to add some interest to some of the smaller projects 
That’s what I’m hoping to get to. The CNC has the controller board on it, but it needs a computer to send the instructions to it (is it also gcode for these things?)
I was using a laptop to run it but then I upgraded to a Mac Mini so the Raspberry Pi is the only thing portable enough (with an old little TV).
That’s one feature I really enjoy about the Ender 3D printer - it has a little SD card slot, so it runs by itself.
But… today we were rock picking haha… and as we were leaving there she starts telling me her plans for tomorrow’s work goals 
. Why is the rainy season taking so long to get here!! 
groan
rock picking...what's that? :D
I'm a redneck in my other life 
The acreage at the cottage has been an ongoing project.
Right now we're clearing and preparing a few more areas for lawn before the rains begin.
This one in the picture will be a grass parking area. So I've been picking up all the bigger rocks out of that area and we've been using them for drainage around the parking area near the house (french drain), as that was a mud bath all winter.
That's a little cart we tow behind our golf cart 
Naomi (aka SuperArtGirl) does it differently...
(she was moving rocks from a rock pile we created while clearing the other lawn last year)
(and yes, she did dig a trench for the bomb squad! that was the very first thing she ever used her bobcat for! 
)
Here's an earlier picture of the parking area by the house. It's nearly done now. The ideal is to have 3/4" drain rock, but this gets the job done and gets rid of all the rocks from the rest of the property. It's extreme overkill for a 2-car parking spot, but Naomi got a little carried away with the excavator while digging the trenches LOL.
'expensive', if it occurs outside the jewellers...
That might have hurt a lot less, maybe.
