Thursday, August 31st, 2017….. I started today off by sleeping in a bit. Penny went over to her house. She has more painting estimates to get. She’s trying to find someone who’s reasonably
priced AND who will do the job in the shortest timeframe. Tough task.
She’s also trying to buy and schedule carpet install asap. Tough task.
I went over and we did some work there and then went to Albany to go to
pick up the electrical cover that will best work on her outlet. We also stocked up on stuff at Costco while
we were there. We came back and unloaded
the groceries and then rested a while and then went to the local furniture
store that was having a tent sale to check that out. Didn’t find anything that we couldn’t live
without for now. We dropped Penny back at home to pick up her car. We all came
home and later Lydia fixed stuffed salmon for dinner and we called it a night.
Friday, September 1st, 2017….. This
morning I had several errands to run.
Penny had more estimates today. I
left and stopped and ran the truck through the local car wash and stopped at
Jack in the Box for a breakfast burrito and then drove to Habitat for
Humanity. On Fridays, if you bring in 3
cans of food, you can get a 20% discount on everything storewide. I had previously found some more cabinets for
the workshop so I took advantage of the discount and got them all. That done, I
headed home and unloaded them for installation another day! I then gathered up
my pink slip for the Acadia and went to the DMV to get new plates. Later, Lydia and I went to Walmart and I got
some new license plate frames and she got some sirloin to cut up for steak
burritos for dinner. I put the license
plates on and then went out to the motorhome and watched a few more taped shows
before Penny got back and Lydia started dinner.
I went out to the shop and started plotting where I wanted everything to
go. They did have another kitchen island
there today at HFH that would make a great work table. I think it was marked a little high so I’ll
have to go back in a week or so but I still can envision it going right over there…..
I went back
in and helped with the prep in the kitchen and once done, we took dinner out to
the motorhome and ate and caught up on some taped shows that we both watch
together (like Master Chef and Guy’s Grocery Games). Lydia went back in the
house and I went back in the shop and worked a bit and secured a cabinet I had
purchased earlier to the wall. It was getting dark so I went back to the rig
and watched tv until I got sleepy and came in to bed. Turns out we got a lot
done today!
