One Small Success

All (almost all) my current efforts are focused on having a semi-clean and useable space for later this week when both Loretta (SIL) and Bernie (thru hiker Sea Otter) will be here.

I worked on several pieces of that goal, and one of them is complete. Well, ok, two. But it's probably not worth counting that I got the bedding clean and the 2nd bed made up. Nevertheless, it did take time.

As part of the aftermath of the January basement flood one of the bookcases had a problem. They are only pressboard, and one of the "feet" did get wet enough to begin to disintegrate. All it needed was a piece of wood sistered up to the inside. You can't even see that this has been done, but without it, the case wasn't really solid. So I got that taken care of today so the bookcase is no longer on its side in the middle of the floor.

Since we got rid of a lot more stuff after the flood, this case is now going to become the home for, hopefully, the rest of our history books. One of the other similar cases is full of them, but there are more in the other building. It will be nice to have them all in one general location.

The toilet project is on hold until tomorrow, but I'll need to tackle it for sure in the morning.

I also worked on another part of the downstairs cleanup, did accounts from the weekend and errands, and spent way too much time with tech support for a software issue.

See, all you people who think I'm amazing... my life is full of all these same kinds of annoying projects as yours.
