I still didn't get up until 10:30, after staying up until 03:00 last night. When I did get up, I found that they had delivered a very large dumpster... Karen had made good on that ever-so-often-uttered threat... so Tyler and I started filling it up with yard contents. No, not dirt... junk. Old boards and branches.
Tomorrow is going to be the day, though... Matt is supposed to come over and trim the trees, and Andy was going to come over and help, and Tyler put off going to Texas so he could help out too...
Should be an interesting day.
I decided that the old windows will go in the dumpster, instead of sitting on the back deck for years until I build a dreamed-of sun room...
The dumpster is 12X8X6 feet. It will hold a lot of trash. And I have a lot of trash. It may take a coupla weeks to get it filled up, but it will get filled.
Karen and I actually had a social evening! Old friends Herman and Debbie came over, and we went out to the New China Inn... they hadn't been there before, and it was my second time and Karen's third... again, excellent food and decent service.
After they brought the ticket, Karen filled out the credit card slip and asked me which one she should keep. I, naturally, told her wrong, and we strolled out the door into the beautiful evening. The waitress persued us into the parking lot, though, and papers were exchanged and Karen was embarrassed. I should've been, but I wasn't... but it'll be a cold day in hell before she trusts me again on such an issue...
Anyway, today is damned near over, it's time to start worrying about tomorrow, isn't it? Nah... I'll do that on Sunday, I guess... worry about Saturday, I mean...
