Yesterday was a fairly decent day, so I made a run to Home Depot and bought 25 2”x3” boards to use as my forms for the cement bases for the new raised bed garden. Spent most of the day outside “doing things.” No idea what though. (Is that a blessing or a curse from getting Old?)
So, today, after a prodrome (but no headache again) I got out and made the forms. They’re all where I want them and now I get to fill in the low spots. Still have no idea if I’m going to buy the ingrediants and do the cement myself, or, have it delivered and have to do it in a rush. (My time being their money, as it were.)
Started planning where I’m going to move my antenna’s. Started putting the 6-btv together to mount it. Measured the closet and know how wide a cabinet I can get to fit that. Got all my usual chores done AND a load of laundry. Damn, I’m good!
This is supposed to be the last day this week that I’m to drop off, and pick up, SWMBO at the Ferry Landing. We’ll see.
Really! I, the old, retired, guy had a fairly busy day. Cool!
Tried calling Peach Beach RV Park to make an reservation. After almost a dozen “mailbox is full” messages I finally got a recorded message that probably had a lot of good information. Unfortunately, I couldn’t understand it. (One of these days I really need to take that course in Garble!) I finally wound up e-mailing the place but I really don’t expect an answer. And I don’t know if we should just drive down there and take a chance that they’ll have a spot we’d enjoy.
At Alpine Meadows, where we’ve had our meeting since forever, we pay $120/yr for coffee and the room is free. Unfortunately, the room is getting rather small nowadays. Which is good cause that means more people are showing up for the meetings so no complaints about that. We’re just getting to need more room.
Last Saturday was a pretty usual Saturday. I did things around the house until SWMBO came home from the Genealogy Library and took me on our Saturday Date. Burger King for a Whopper this week. Stopped by St. Vinnies to look through their “junk.” Bought some things at Lowe’s and made our usual Safeway stop on the way home.
Today it’s 90+ degrees out so I’m spending as much time as I can outside. As usual on a nice day. Put my shorts on and did most of the whack weeding that needed to be done around the house. Attached the grass catcher thing to the “new” rider mower just in case I ever want to do it for real. (I prefer the mulch thingie cause I can’t see why I need to dump a load of grass somewhere.)
Oh, took SWMBO to the Ferry Landing at 0540 this morning cause her Son is in Colorado (or somewhere that starts with a “C”). I get to go back and pick her up at 1945 tonight. Get to do this for the next 3 days too. Cool! Wish she could quit working outside the home.
