Our Location today is Tecumseh, Ontario, Canada.
The way things have been happening lately it really does
make us question how we ever accomplished things while we were still part of
the working part of the population. We are not alone most RV blogs we read
everyone is experiencing the same thing. Mind you on some occasions it is
something you are wanting to do for yourself but not always.

This morning we were once again up before 7:00 and moments
later sitting down to have breakfast. It wasn’t long after 8:00 that we were on
our way over to our daughter Karen’s home. The game plan was for Greg and
myself to finish hanging the rest of the chain link fencing and gate today.
Unlike Tuesday Greg and I were more in sync today and were able to adjust the gate
to automatically close besides stretching the final section all the way to the
Railroad property fence. It was comical watching Sanford trying to figure out
why we were putting up this thing that was making it impossible for him to go
visit the neighbors. When Karen and Kathy called us to lunch at 11:40 we were
just finishing for the day.

Karen cooked us some very nice Panini Sandwiches with Potato
salad and Cole slaw sides which we really enjoyed. The unfortunate part was that
Greg has been on a very strict diet by his doctor and was only allowed a veggie
wrap even having to use lettuce leafs as the shell. Greg needed to get ready to
go to work and Karen’s meds were making her tired so Kathy and I left for home.

On the way we stopped at Home Hardware where I picked up a
set of spring loaded hinges for the breadbox that I’m making for the trailer, I
was upset with myself yesterday when we got home that while we were picking up
the drawer pulls yesterday at Home Depot that I didn’t think to get them as
well. I also picked up a couple of turnbuckles so that Greg and I can finish
the tension wire at the bottom of their fence.

Kathy was feeling the effects of getting up early again so
she sat in the living room for a Snap. I busied myself changing the bed linens
and gathering the rest of the laundry. We have been so busy lately I’ve been
unable to get this normal chore done so today would have to be the day. When Kathy
got up I was able to sort the clothes making the chore of washing easier.

It was now past 3:00 so Kathy and I were heading back to our
daughter Karen’s house. Since Greg was gone to work on the afternoon shift she
had asked if I could do a few more little jobs for her. The first one involved
using my drill to mount some hanging flower baskets over the deck but it meant
drilling into bricks. Suddenly things got a little tricky because the plugs we
had were either too small or large for the job. Eventually I found the perfect
sized plugs that I carry in an organizer in the truck. I even relocated a crank
up umbrella that had to be refastened to a different spot on their deck.
As soon as we got home I fired up the Weber while Kathy seasoned
a nice salmon fillet for me to grill. She also sautéed some Brussels Sprouts and made a
nice salad to go with it. Once the supper dishes were done I was off to do the
laundry as a fact the clothes are in the dryers as I’m writing this post.
