We certainly have fallen into a routine. Monday thru Friday, go to work. Saturday, I get to sleep in until 8 and then we are off to the Home Depot/Lowes (we try to spread the wealth) and then work until dark. Veg at home in front of the TV and get up on Sunday and do it again. On Sunday, we usually skip the stop at the store, just to vary the day. We had had cool, Seattle-ish weather for the last couple weeks, ever since Ernesto blew thru, but today was summer again. Got some painting done, since it wasn't so damp.
At the house, we have moved into projects that seem more like "finishing" than starting. We are painting and trimming out the living room. Bert got a welder this week that repaired the living room window, so that was good to get that off our 'to do' list where it has been all these months. Now we have a working window, or we will when I get the glass installed in the frame!
We also got rid of the port-a-potty out of the yard. The neighbors graciously said they weren't worried about it, but I know they must have breathed a sigh of relief that it wasn't permanant!!!
Our neighbor at the end of the street is turning into one of those neighbors everyone needs. He takes care of our little street, filling pot holes and mowing the grass. Last week he came over just as we were discussing buying a table saw, and he says "I have one in my garage I have never opened". So, today, Bert set up a nice table saw in the garage. Took a few trips to Bernard's to find all the parts, but by the end of the day, we had most of them. Seems that Bernard has a bit of everything in his garages. Yes, more than one was needed apparently.
Will try to post photos later! We might even go buy a hot water heater this week!
