Wednesday, September 20th,
2017….. Today
was the second day of prep and painting over at Penny’s. The guys did some repair work on her window
sills and painted the ceilings, baseboards and doors and window and door casings.
It’s looking good (except for the GIANT spider in the master closet!).
They have another job to go to and won’t be
back until Monday. It’s been raining so
this is actually a good thing – it will give the paint time to dry so they can
safely tape off the trim. They finished
up and left for the day - one of the guys put the spider in a jar for his
daughter’s science show and tell day at school). The POD also got delivered
this afternoon. We will unload tomorrow
morning. Lydia was planning dinner but
the chicken didn’t defrost so we all went out to Ixtapa for Mexican food. We got home and kicked back and later watched the
America’s Got Talent results show. We picked
our top 4 and all of us had Darci to win (yaay!) I got Angelica second and
Light Balance 3rd. I had
picked Diavolo over Mandy so I missed 4th but still that was pretty good
– 3 out of 4. Lydia and Penny also got 3
of their 4. Good show this season. Next up is following DWTS and then Survivor!
Thursday, September 21st, 2017…...
I had another revisit appointment this morning
with one of my potential contractors (Arron).
He brought along an electrician to take a look and see what we can do to
(cheaply) route power to the rv garage.
It would cost over 10k to run it from the street so that’s out. He thinks he can rearrange some of my
breakers in the shop and get me one 50amp., one 30amp., and a couple 20amp circuits
which will work and save a ton! No quote yet but soon I expect. I worked on my trailer safety chains when
they came by and Arron and I ended up talking about by bent axle problem. He
remembered a tire shop in town that did work on boat trailer axle straightening
so that’s a good lead.
While I was working with my guys, Penny and Jody were at
the house and started in on unloading the POD. I told them I would head over as
so as I could to help. When I got there, they were about a third in. We finished and they got most everything staged so it will go in the house pretty
easily when it’s ready.
We went to lunch
and I came home and hung curtains while they went back to shop for furniture
and then to Walmart. Lydia rested (still in some discomfort from her shingles)
but got her chicken lasagna casserole prepped for dinner.
Penny brought home garlic knots which we
heated up and the girls put a salad together plus we had anniversary cake!
Happy anniversary Charlie and Jody!
Penny and Jody eating anniversary cake!
All
were yummy. While we were eating, we
spotted three deer out by the woods at the edge of the back property (kinda hard to see).
Then we spotted
the rainbow…..
We ended the evening watching tv and planning our day tomorrow.
