been quite a busy day… got up around 6:30 to put out the garbage, recycling and yard waste…had my neighbour help me move the new very heavy chair into position… then worked on the to do today list…
went to Rona, Costco, and Family Foods, as well as having my hair cut… got home in time for a quick bite before Dan the Carpenter came by to put a door on my pantry… rather a fancy name for some shelves by the back door… I’ve wanted a door for ages so am very happy, although every time I walk past it I think it looks strange but no doubt I will get used to it…
got a number of things for the big party on Tuesday at Costco and when I got to the cash register couldn’t find the Costco card… lost it somewhere in the store while I was shopping… kind of freaked out wondering what was going to happen, but a staff person sent me off to find another person who provided me with my number and I was able to get my groceries… then I had to go and get a new card… I guess a Costco card is a good one to lose if you have to lose a card… think it was the first one I have ever lost…
have so much stuff in the freezer that I can’t squeeze another thing in there… don’t even think I can make any more of the pretty ice cubes I have been working on…
taking up the old disgusting boards…
after Dan finished the door he fixed six deck boards which had oil spilled on them and they looked really awful… we’ve tried scrubbing with soap and water, putting on grease remover and nothing made a difference so I just decided to replace them and be done with it… looks great now…
beautiful new deck boards…
he left, and just after that, Jeff arrived… he fixed one of the flower bed frames, got a pump going, moved many boxes into the basement closet, got the wii working, put together two tables and moved chairs from the main floor to the basement… then we had a hot tub, planned the next few days and he headed home…
I am ready for bed… there are still a few jobs to be done tomorrow, but it doesn’t feel overwhelming…
