I arrived at the job site around eight this morning. I worked on the v-groove until about 3:30, stopping only to talk with a guy who came by to chat for a few minutes. I didn’t get as much done as I would have liked though. I drove home via Tullahoma and Luke was waiting for me. We had dinner after reading for a bit. Hopefully I will go to bed early tonight.
This morning Luke dressed up like a landscaper for his Halloween party at school. He was pretty excited. I left the house at the same time he did and drove to Lowe’s in Tullahoma for a few things. My next stop was Home Depot in Winchester followed by Food City. I unloaded at the cottage then went to the job site. I worked until after dark installing boards on the walls.
I arrived at the job site at seven this morning, unloaded the tools, and got all set up to work. Then I waited for the inspector. He arrived just before nine and gave me the thumbs up. I started work on the walls but needed a rubber mallet, so I went to the lumberyard. They didn’t have any for sale but did loan me one from the paint department. back at the house I worked until about 2:15 and made decent progress. I stopped by the Goat Market and ordered a pizza, went to the cottage to pack up, returned to the Goat Market and ate some of the pizza, then hit the road. I stopped at Home Depot in Manchester to buy some nails, then drove on home. Luke and Liz were playing outside when I arrived, but then we came in and built a Lego tower before dinner. After dinner we cleaned up and Luke took a bath, then I showered. I was just starting to relax when Liz said that she needed a color inkjet printer to print an iron-on think for Luke’s Halloween costume that he will wear to school tomorrow. So I drove up to Target in Spring Hill and got one. Now she is messing with it and I am not sure when I will be able to go to bed.
This morning I just ran errands and hung out a bit while waiting to hear from the building inspector. After lunch and more relaxing I went to the job site to arrange the wood that I will attach to the walls as soon as the inspector gives his approval. I did that until dark. This evening I have just been relaxing.
This morning I met the plumbers at the job site then returned to the cottage to clean it in anticipation of my parents’ arrival this afternoon. Back at work I cleaned and organized everything and took a lot of stuff to the storage unit. The plumbers finished up and I texted the inspector about a visit but have yet to receive a reply. For kicks I drove a bit down Laurel Lake and ended up stopping to talk with a neighbor for over an hour. I returned to the cottage and ate my slow cooker dish. I think I will watch another James Bond tonight.
