Awake: 5:55am Temp 54 sleep 5+56 rain off & on overnight @ Nicktown.
After our KK meeting, K & I asked Bob & Nathan to build cabinets & library shelves in our bedroom; we gave them the spec's to work with & they got right after it.
Before they perused our master bedroom, K & I moved all the boxes (there were plenty & heavy) away from the wall.
Then Kathy motored to the Foote Castle to watch over the boys while Melissa went to the doctor to have a "non-stress test" for the baby. Since Melissa is past her due date, this is a routine test to ascertain that the placenta is still able to supply the needed oxygen for the baby to support life. And the baby is doing fine; all is good.
Later, I opened some more boxes & these are some of the goodies I found inside: A selection of nuts, bolts, screws, & rivets, washers, etc, all sizes. And the next box: look! I hit the jackpot.... GOLD....or maybe popcorn! Oh well, it almost looks like gold. While making numerous things out of brass using my larger metal lathe, I collected the filings, & shavings, put then in a jar & thought that some day, I could sell the brass shavings for BIG $$.
Later, I turned on the World Series baseball game; just getting a sneak peek of what works & what doesn't work. Oh, I see that burned out bulb to be the 1st glitch. By the end of the workday for Bob & Nathan, here is the start of the process on the cabinets. Dinner: Chili with elbow macaroni & corn chips; great!
Lights out: 11:22pm.
