Hello,
This morning Leroy almost hopped out
of bed. He declared that he had slept well. It made a difference. He was ready
to work. After breakfast the first stop was the garage where he worked on that
piece of furniture that he had brought home from the Ely library. It had a hole
in the back so the large TV could breathe or release heat into the air. Since
it is now used to store power tools a total back seemed like a nice idea so
nothing would fall through. Leroy covered that hole with wood he had scavenged
from work. It feels good to get something for nothing, save something from the
landfill, and create a useful item. Then Leroy did a little sweeping in the
garage, put up another tool holder and tightened up the storage areas so walk
ways were a little more open. He was quite satisfied when finished. I on the other
hand did not get so many useful things done. I did do dishes and weeding so it
looks quite good to walk alongside the house to get in the back door.
On this burst of energy Leroy tackled
the computer issues. He was able to wipe Chrome from both computers and put it
back clean. It is so nice to have it working much more efficiently. I grumbled about
some of the extra things on the desktop so he got rid of things that he no
longer uses. It is just makes a clean and tidy life in lots of ways.
We went ahead and bought a new device
to capture the wireless signal to be sent to the home phone. It will come Thursday
and then life will be back to normal.
Brian called to tell us that, because
of storms, they have been without power since some time Friday. He did rent a generator
that will take care of the freezer and refrigerator. It has also been used at
some of the neighbors’ houses. It seems that he is making a regular circuit among
three houses. He said that he and a neighbor sawed wood for almost three hours
trying to get things cleaned up. There was not have a problem in their yard,
but many of the neighbors had trees down. Unfortunately more storms are on the
way for tonight.
There were also trees down around
here, but it did not affect us.
