Awake: 5:46am     Temp 26     sleep 5+40      off & on flurries     overnight @ Nicktown.

Kathy e-mailed with an attached note from our Bamboo storage guy Doug; his note says: we just noticed a large leak in our warehouse (assuming from this rough winter) & the section of our warehouse with the 5" Carbonized & a few other floors has a lot of water leakage. Most of your boxes have been damaged & are not usable.

He wrote that he could not apologize enough & they are frantically looking for a way to take care of all of our clients in your shoes. Then he offered options. Kathy wrote & selected another width size & I agreed with that idea. This of course will hold up Bernie & his crew from starting the floor laying for awhile. After I called Doug & gave him our selection from the options, he got right after his guys to seek out that different width & the amount.

                      Close to 9:00am, 84-lumber drove into our circular driveway. DSC000627.JPG                                 Our entry door with side lights had arrived. DSC000628.JPG & along with the door, there are sheets of plywood for the underlay of the Bamboo. DSC000629.JPG When I returned from watching the guys unload, I thought I'd better check on that mouse from yesterday. I opened the hood & what do I see? Nothing! My trap with peanut butter was gone. Aha, underneath the car was my trap & that singed somewhat furry varmint was caught dead handed. DSC000630.JPG After that, I disposed of the creature & took a picture of the brick & mortar that we are considering for our house.

Dinner: leftover filled peppers, 4-bean salad, mandarin orange slices & Como toast.

Then with some popcorn, I finished watching: "Black Narcissus" with Emeric Pressburger, Deborah Kerr, David Farrar, Sabu, Jean Simmons, Kathleen Byron, etc. Visually sumptuous, dramatically charged movie, from Rumer Godden novel, about nuns trying to establish a mission in a remote Himalayan outpost amid formidable physical and emotional challenges. One of the most breathtaking color films ever made (winning Oscars for cinematographer Jack Cardiff and art director Alfred Junge.) Scenes in which Sister Superior Kerr recalls her former life. 1947. Great story.

Lights out: 12:03am.
