Discard that which holds Happy April Fool's day! I know that none of you are really fools, but get into the spirit, heh? Besides, it's almost over now anyways. Got to bed late last night, and up early this morning. Went to McD's to get breakfast, since the stove and fridge are over at the other house right now. Got some stuff done over there today, fixing locks and piddly stuff. Mom is reluctant to let me do anything physical, but I've pretty much got her talked out of that now. The lock on the front door on the little house was sticking, so I took it apart and couldn't get it to work after I lubed it up. Then I found two pieces of a broken wire in it, it had lost a keeper key at one time and someone replaced it with a piece of soft iron wire. So I came back over to Mom's big house and found a good steel nail that would fit after I flattened the head and then I tried to put a bend in it and couldn't... good steel there. So I just made sure that the head was on the up side and let gravity do its job. We went over to see Reta earlier, she was the renter in Mom's house until she and Mom went to look at some apartments... Mom didn't like them, but Reta did, so she and her husband moved. She's Mom's cousin, one of a pair of twins, and a really neat woman, she helps Mom out a lot. After visiting with Reta and LeRoy for quite a while, we went to Long John Silvers for a late lunch, pretty good stuff there, except for the fact that everything was fried. Yeah, the batter is good, but it quadruples the carbs. I should've got one of their baked meals, heh. Supper was a can of soup in the little house. Not many carbs there, just the crackers. Mom is busy throwing pieces of paper away, something that I can't help her with, I'm afraid. She has already gotten rid of a lot of stuff, and I will be going home with a trunk-full, I'm afraid. However, one of the things that I'm taking home is a nice jig saw (with table, not a hand-held jobbie) and that will go in my new shop when I get it built. I am *so* looking forward to that! However, I'm gonna look at some alternatives to the building that I've been looking at, I'm thinking that I could have it done for about half of that price, but I could be wrong about that. Anyway, I'm pretty damned tard for not having done any more than I did today, I think that the drive yesterday took a lot out of me. I did get a good night's sleep last night, looking forward to another one.
keep what is in your heart deep.
Enjoy... live life light
