Journal Entry
Tyler and I did get some work done yesterday; I got a lot more wiring done... or rather, re-done. I combined two circuits into one and got the rest of the wiring scheme figgered out. I woke Tyler up about 14:00, hoping to get him on the same schedule as I'm on... but we only got one sheet of the ceiling hung before we ran into another problem. Well, we did get a lot of thinking done, and we now know how to fix this particular problem.
And the damned skylight is still leaking, only not nearly so much. Tyler tarred it some more on Thursday. I was going to go up and help him do it, but I got up on the ladder to the edge of the roof and I could go no further... so I just gave him instructions, based on what he said he saw.
But what the hell, we've still got a half-bucket of tar left...
I went to bed early, around 21:00; Tyler went over to Lawrence, and Karen kept Drew last night; he is certainly a cute kid, but he's getting pretty mouthy. He's about two years old now, and talking pretty good.
I slept pretty well, and I got up about 04:00 this morning. Tyler still wasn't back, but he came in while I was reading the paper... he hadn't gotten any sleep last night, so he's downstairs now taking what he described as a "power nap". We'll see about that... I'm gonna get him up after Karen and Drew wake up and we've all had breakfast.
19:00...
Well, we had a fairly productive day, continuing to make slow progress. Most of the ceiling is done, and we got the sheet rock to get it all finished.
Then I sat down to watch the Chiefs play (their sorry brand of) football and Tyler went downstairs. After the game,
I went to check on him and he was fast asleep, so I didn't awaken him. I came back upstairs and did a little more work and then Karen and I ate and that's about it.
I had a guy apply for the Atheist Journals Web-ring last week; I really liked his site, but there was no sign of a journal there. He wrote me again to find out what was up, and I wrote him back, being honest about the reasons for not accepting his site. Anyhoo, one thing followed another, and I think that I talked him into starting a journal... we'll see. I certainly hope so, anyway.
Well, like I said, I got up pretty early this morning, and I've just about had it for this day. I've gotta get up early in the AM and go to a mandatory meeting at the hospital, so I better get to sleep early...
More tomorrow...
