Lots finished yesterday and the day before.
Have the heater vents back up and sealed after Bob had to crawl under the house 2 days in a row to get them back in place and secured and sealed again; after the cats played"tiddelee winks" on top of them or "hang from the ducts".
Bob had a very bad day and night - night before last and day before yesterday, but yesterday seemed to be a much better day. He got the tractor motor power washed and the chain saw working again, and found the oil leak on the tractor under the gas tank and the water leak in the same area, so today is a hose for the water leak and replace a grommet for the oil leak.
I got the house swept and two closets cleaned out, with a construction bag of Bob's shoes and old summer shorts and shirts and some hats cleared out, plants watered and fed, washing done, stuff from the closets out to the sheds, but a slight glitch there, as had to straighten up the one shed in order to put the ice chests "oh my gosh these things have never been cleaned from the use before Christmas, thought he had done that!!@@##" back where they belong, as "oh my gosh, what happened to the space where they belonged"???? Then to the other shed to put up Christmas Decorations I missed in the first round, and "oh my gosh!!! the Christmas decorations are in the middle of the isle"!!!@@@### So up on the ladder and put them up in the ceiling shelving and straightened up the isle so I could get the stuff in there where I wanted it on desk etc. ie, took out the bags of Deer corn that should have been in the feed shed and put them in the feed shed!!! but all with a smile and a "hi honey, I LOOOVVEEE you"!!!!!!! Then around to the dog pin and did the pin clean out ohhh yuccckkkkyyy, and the disemboweled pollow scattered all over the pin where the dogs had played "tug a war and lets scatter this shit everywhere". Took a 42 gallon construction bag to clean up after 3 dogs and a pillow, damn they put a lot of stuffing in those things!!!! Then Bob and I moved in another larger dog house and took out the smaller one as now that we have "3" large dogs in the pin and they fought over the 2 larger dog houses; we had to do some switching. Then another feeder hung so Shadow didnt play "no you men, you dont get to eat out of this unless I say so". Not that they were loosing any weight here, as they played "lets sneek a bite while she is asleep and see if she can catch us", and we have now gone thru 60 lbs in 3 weeks. That done, we cleaned out the fish ponds for the winter and got the water cleaned and added clorox to the water to kill the allgy. Then back inside and broom swept the floor as big foot was not cleaning his feet between trips to the chair and kitchen; I take my shoes off at the door. Debbie came in from work and we planed our day today to get ready for her home to move tomorrow. She has hired a guy to come in this morning and take down the pasture fence and start digging the ditch for the sewer lines and water lines and the elect co is supposed to come see about putting in a pole at 2pm. He will also start taking down her under pinning and unhooking her sewer and elect lines, and move what furniture needs moving to the floor. This way she and Bob will supervise and not have to do the hands on as Bob will start the ditches for him using the tractor and the plow.
Bob and I are going to cut wood today because we are getting low and Ellen and Kenny need a 1/2 cord also and we need a 1/2 cord on stand by in case we get a call for some wood. I think Phyllis and Danny are coming over after it warms up a bit and cut wood also as they want to get ready for a bit of a cold snap later this week. We are also going to try to get some of the lumber for the barn and get a wall or two up before the cold and wind gets up Thursday and Friday. Thank goodness it will be a dry cold front!!!
