Watch it transform from hell hole to hovel.  It's amazing what a little paint n paper will do... ok and some tiles.

Day 185

Posted 9/12/2020

Day 185: Worked too much yesterday, I can tell... I'm not moving very well today. I went over to the neighbors house, they were having a yard sale and we put a few toys there to try and get rid of... I refrained from buying anything. This was a big step towards the decluttering of our own home. I eventually made breakfast and headed down to the basement to inflict more pain on myself. Still looking for that part to align the blades in the planer. So back to cleaning up tools... Into the sockets today, trying to make sets of things, lol... The mind boggles. Eventually it came to and end and I had to be horizontal again. What I was able to keep my self from doing this morning didn't last the day. Now the other day that same neighbor had an issue with their laundry basin, I had one in the garage I was going to make a parts washer out of... So I let them have it... Not a project I was going to get on anytime soon so I figured they need one I have one problem solved. So fast forward today when I plopped down in front of the computer... First thing that pops up one the screen is a genteelly used parts washer... Exactly what I was looking for to fill that space in the garage that the laundry basin was taking up just a few days ago. I drove to Timmins and picked it up. Met some Mopar people, that's always a good thing... Stopped at the grocery store bought a chicken since I wasn't at home cooking the chicken I had there planned for dinner... And head back home to feed people. Lawson, his friend (who was over for the night), Heather an myself... Lots to go around. The boy hid away in the basement never to resurface... I took down cheezys at some point, the were engrossed in their games. Heather and I kinda watch a movie while she tied strings together from a small ball of wool until it looked like half a mitten... Then because she liked it she took it all apart... Put the wool back in a small ball and started again with a bigger ball in another color... And once again made part of a mitten... Don't ask I have no idea. Eventually the movie was over so she stopped making knots and went to sleep.
