Good morning Pam - it does sound like fun to pick the colors and stuff. I also can pick my colors [of couse I then have to then pay to have it installed - ]
going to go back this morning and do more work - need to trim [weedeater] the yard - cut all the grass yesterday, vaccuum, backwash and shock the pool, and clean out the rest of the house - still have some junk there but mostly in the garage. I had previously moved my guest room furniture from a storage shed to the house and bought a new box springs and matress along with some new sheets and pillows so I now have one room ready. I spent my first night there on Friday night and heard things I have not heard in a long time (frogs and crickets)
Saturday after cutting the grass I got some things to fix the Master Bath toilet. I had noticed that it was empty and had guessed that it leaked. I was right. a little inspection showed that the leak was between the tank and the bowl so I went to the home store to get a tank to bowl kit (about $5.00 - I also got some new seats for both) and with a little effort I now have it working. I guess the last owners, along with not knowing what a dust rag was, did not have a pair of pliers, screwdrivers or any wrenches.
Of course most of my tools are still in the shed behind C's along with a bunch of my other things (and she said that she was in no hurry for me to get them) so I had to go to the home store (i.e. - the men's toy store) again to get a few more tools.
I also went over to C's and picked up my yard tools and everything else that I had over in her garage. Now the only things of mine that are over at C's that are not in the outdoor storage shed is a long extension ladder and a air hose reel that is screwed to the rafters of the garage.
My plan is to get the things from the outdoor shed after I move into the house and it is more in shape.
Well, as one of my supervisors where I use to work many years ago, told me, "let's get going, we are burning daylight"
