Saturday, October 17th, 2020…… Today, the weather is again kind
of rainy, but the sun comes out later in the day and it dries out quickly. The
temps have dropped several degrees in the morning. They say we have a run of
sunny days coming soon, but I think we are getting close to winter up
here! I hung around the house most of
the day, only venturing out to do some early-morning shopping at Walmart. I
didn’t do anything yet to the motorhome, but I think I have a plan to get the
bottom part of the ladder disassembled. Maybe Monday…
I ate the other stuffed salmon for
dinner and watched my Nascar races and also caught up on one of my new favorite
game shows – Master Minds. Plus, I went into the guest bedroom, where Frances
has installed Disney Plus for me and where I have uploaded Peacock, to watch
some of those shows for a while. I binge-watched all of Dale Earnhardt’s new
series called Lost Speedways.
Sunday, October 18th, 2020…… The weather is nicer today. No rain and none in the forecast. The sun came out and it ‘warmed’ up to the low 60s. The grass still can’t dry out enough to mow yet. Sis and Cherrelyn came by this morning to drop off 11 pumpkins. Yes, 11! We are having a bbq here on Saturday and that day will include some pumpkin carving. Her daughter-in-law and two of her grandkids are coming up to visit this week. My house is better-suited for the crowd. More on this as the week goes by…
Later in the morning, I dropped by
Teri’s house to say hi then went over to my sister’s place with my truck,
loaded with a wheelbarrow, and ramps. The wheelbarrow is for moving the rock
she’s had delivered for her side yard. The ramps are for moving her new fridge
in and out of the truck. Her neighbor, Jeremiah, already had her entry door to
the garage off the hinges and was taking the water line off of her old fridge
when I got there. We got that fridge moved out and plugged in and then he and I
took off and met the girls at Janice’s house. We took her front door off and I
got the water line off her fridge. But, oops, I thought she said she turned off
the water. What she said was she turned off the icemaker! So, we needed
‘cleanup on aisle three’ after we shut the valve off! It took all of us but we got the thing in the
truck and over to her house, offloaded and installed with no issues.
Then Cherrelyn and I scooped up several wheelbarrow loads of gravel and Jeremiah moved them over to his house next door. These are shots from when they first dropped off the load.
Once that was done, we took Janice’s hand truck back to her and then I headed home to rest up for a few hours. Later, I met Teri at Gametime for dinner and a beer. Nice relaxing time! That was a nice reward for the day! Except for more elation later when the Dodgers won the game and will now go to the World Series! I just hope this is the year they don’t go flat in that series, like in the past years.
Monday, October 19th, 2020…… This morning I had a super early dental appointment – 7:30am! Luckily, Dr. Tolman’s office is only about a mile away. Today’s visit included x-rays, a cleaning, and an exam (no issues on anything). I got all of that done and headed off to find breakfast and then went home. I really didn’t have anything else planned for the day. I decided to go out and work on my boat carpet. I managed to get it all glued down. Next up will be to trim it and secure the edges as needed. I cleaned up and came in and rested for a bit, then left to go get dinner from jack in the Box. I settled in and watched Dancing With the Stars before calling it a night. I’m enjoying the dancing and the judging but hate the hosting! She is a joke! Boy, I sure miss Tom and Erin!
