We got an early start this morning but it was already uncomfortable just after six. It took about five minutes to become soaking wet. We started off on the back of the house and installed a few pieces. Next we went to the gable wall on the fr end of the house. We went a bit higher, and even installed a piece of soffit, but I was very unsteady on the ladder and not at all comfortable, so we moved to lower sections. At one point I went to Lowe’s for a short level and longer air hose for the compressor. There were a couple of periods of rain this afternoon. The heat and humidity were really miserable. The afternoon didn’t feel very productive. Hopefully tomorrow will be better, but they are calling for more rain.
Not a productive day.
I woke up at 5:45 this morning and decided to return to sleep. I finally rose around 7:30. Liz and Luke were still asleep, so I waited for them to get up. After nursing and a bottle we went to the AG Center for a walk at about 9:15. It was pretty warm by then, but it was still nice to walk around. I drove to the Kioti dealership in Murfreesboro to order some parts for the tractor. From there I took a slow way back to the condo. After helping with some chores I talked with my dad once he arrived to go look at house materials with Liz. Due to Luke’s feeding they were about an hour and a half late in leaving. In the meantime we went down the road to look at cabinets for his building project. The rest of the afternoon and evening I spent doing work on the computer and messing with Luke as needed. Hopefully tomorrow will be a good day for getting a lot of work done on the house.
A couple of weeks ago on the mountain.
When I picked up my siding down in Georgia I made the trip a little easier by staying the weekend in Monteagle. On Sunday evening it was glorious, so I went to Lake O’Donnell and the Templeton Library to take a few pictures. Previously I posted some shots from my phone, but here are a few from the “real” camera.
Evening stroll.
It was lovely this evening and so we headed to the AG Center after dinner. The humidity was a bit intense but the fresh air and beautiful sky balanced that out. There were a number of other walkers enjoying the time as well. Lots of fireflies in the main field. Luke pretty much slept the whole time.
Boring Sunday.
It really feels strange not to be doing anything on Sunday after a long week of activity. We were going to go for a walk this morning after Luke’s first feeding, but I kind of overslept. Hopefully we will make it out this evening. Luke has been pretty relaxed today. He did a little tummy time and slept a bit.
