A relatively busy morning
Jul. 31st, 2022 02:50 pmMade pain perdu (French toast) for breakfast using a sourdough-based cinnamon raisin bread that
helwen picked up at the local farmers' market.
Made a run to the Transfer Point for trash, recyclables, and returnables, including the blade of a spade and an old standing fan that had a burnt out motor.
Picked up a container of ice cream at the local convenience store.
Attached legs to the platform for the base of the new stairs/stile for the retaining wall in the courtyard. Helwen took care of placement while I worked on other things.
Inflated a soft tire on the riding mower — a bicycle pump fills the tire faster than the 12V tire inflater that we carry in the car.
Attached the battery charger to the riding mower.
Moved the computers from the front room office to the living room, where the air conditioner is.
That's a start. It now being 3:00 PM or thereabouts, that might be a finish for today.
