Oct 20th - I'm Tired Tonight

I worked all day helping on the new building. Started at 8, took a 1 hour lunch break and quit at 4. 7 hours of being outside, wrestling 14' long 2x10's and 4x8 sheets of 3/4" tongue and grooved flooring tired this old man out <grin>. I've enjoyed working the carpenter who is "bossing" the job. He works for a living but also Pastor's a local church. We should finish the floor tomorrow and get a start on the walls.

Today Kathy touched up painting others had done previously. Someone painted poured concrete walls while but they did not do a good job of getting close to the floor. (They did do a good job of getting a lot of white paint on the floor.) Kathy went around the walls and touched up the places they had missed. A lot of bending over and/or scooting along the concrete floor.

I finally regen'd our RV water softener this evening. To regen it you unhook it, drain out some of the water, dump in 2# of table salt, let it set 5 min, and then flush the salt out of it, the water exits through a pinhole fitting, for 20 minutes. With the flush water going through the pinhole fitting you probably use around 5 gallons to flush out the salt. Now we will see how much difference the regen makes.

There is a freeze warning here for tonight, but the forecast is for a low of 33 degrees.

That is all for tonight. Don't know if we will watch a DVD movie (can't get a TV signal here) or go to bed. We are both tired.

Good night to all and may God bless you and yours.
