Leroy and I had planned to go to a town
about an hour or hour and a half drive away to go to an art exhibit. Leroy was
not so peppy when we got up, complaining a little about his voice. The drive
had not seemed so interesting to me. I suggested that we might like to stay
home and go some other time in January.
I had a time set up to help another
person apply for an action grant from that insurance company. She came and we
got the job done. Hopefully her application will be approved.
After that Leroy and our downstairs
responsible guy, set about changing the nonfunctioning outlet in the kitchen. It
all took a few trips up and down stairs to make sure that the proper wires were
no longer live and capable of causing shocks. At one point Leroy thought it was
all done only to discover that the kitchen light could not be turned off. A second
attempt locked it all down in the proper place. I was happy that both guys were
unscathed from this experience.
When lunch was over we went out to do
a little shopping. One purchase was a thermometer which as near as I can tell,
records only wrong temperatures. Sigh, a return is in the future. From there we
took some things to Goodwill. I was looking for some glass contains were lids
that sealed. No luck on that score, but Leroy found a bike rack for the great
low price of less than four dollars. The rational was that if it did not work
on our car it was not much money gone. Leroy reported that it took some thought
and figuring, but it works. Our old one which we bought years ago for much,
much more money no longer works because one of the cords broke. Replacement is
good.
Now if we could just find the right
thermometer for our lives we would be all set.
