I went back to bed last night relatively early, and I woke up several times, the last time at about 03:00; I decided to stay up then, and fixed a pot of coffee.

Tyler had gotten a lot of clean-up done yesterday, plus he moved all of the sheet-rock inside and moved the trailer out of the driveway so Karen can park there. He's a good kid and an excellent worker... once he gets started. He's got a lot of his dad in him, I'm afraid...

I told him about the 486 portable computer... he didn't know that I had it... and he's been making use of it lately. Surprisingly, we can both be on-line at the same time (using different lines, of course)... I would have thought that my ISP would have set their software up to disallow two instances of the same customer name being on-line, but I guess that it hasn't occurred to them to do so.

I'm feeling pretty good right now, and my plans for the day include hooking up the last outside light and getting some floor-level sheet-rocking done, at least enough where we can re-arrange the furniture to give us a clear path from the living-room to the current kitchen. I also want to get rid of some of the tools and stuff that we have littering up the place that we won't be using in the near future... that will include almost everything except for the sheet-rock materials and some electrical stuff.

Then... get some sleep, and go back to work tonight. I guess I am kinda looking forward to it... it's been a long time.

More later...

12:48...
Well, We did get a lot of stuff done this morning anyway. Got the sheet-rock up on the east wall (just the lower part) and moved furniture around until I get ready to start mudding. So we have a nice path now, anyway.

I also mopped the floor. And now I'm going to shave, cut my hair and go to bed for a while...

More tomorrow...


Thanx for being here!
