Awake: 6:53 Temp Downtown=51 Low clouds & drizzle
Memorial Day is special for many people....and it's also special for us in
remembering War & Peace.
We decide we will continue our housework this day like any other.
I spray the texture splatter on the wall next to the shower downstairs.
Then take both sliding closet mirror/doors off in Katrina/Zack's room to
check. Find one door with a broken wheel. I remove it and will try to find
a replacement.
Kathy continues working in the den...varnishing window frames & floor
moldings.
Kevin calls, they will be hiking today regardless of the drizzling rain.
I clean & prep some of the tile in the lower shower...ready to re-grout.
Kathy is now finished in the den, and regroupes for another attack on that
ugly laundry room. In fact, the battle is so intense that when the smoke
clears, it's 7:30 pm. Oh yes, if you could see the carnage?
I need a change of pace here, so I head outside...take the winter tarp &
blankets off the 1984 Ford Van & turn the ignition key. It starts right
up. Now we winterized that van late last August...that's nine months
ago..and it turns right over and purrs like a diesel.
I struggle to get the fenced side rails onto the tilt trailer & move it
over next to the lower garage...then hitch it to the Ford van. Now I'm
having fun...tossing " stuff " that I will no longer need or can't take it
in the motorhome. Some of this stuff is good but it's gotta go.
The trailer is half full when I back it into the upper garage for more
tossing of " stuff." Later this week, we'll take this load to the city
dump.
Mow the grass again using the Kubota tractor. Then clean up the RV parking
pad for Gary & Rosemary's visit starting on Wednesday.
Late dinner at 9:30 pm. Hamburger stuffed with bacon, mushrooms & blue
cheese and spinach salad with mandrian orange slices. Lights out: 12:12
am.
