You can sure get a lot accomplished if you get up at 5 AM. I took Mom and Ellen to the airport and then stopped at Jim's on the way back for breakfast. I didn't want to stop on the other side of Mopac to eat because of traffic. I shouldn't have worried. There wasn't any traffic until 7:00. By then I was heading home.
When I got home I spent a couple of hours watching old recordings to clear up the DVR. Then I went outside and looked at the back fence. It seems that the best way to stabilize it is to string a cable between the two end posts. SoI loaded the dog into the truck and went to Home Depot.
At Home Depot I bought cable, clamps, and two turnbuckles. I also got 12 more bags of sand and a bag of cement. On the way home I stopped at Circle C and had the dog do retrieves. Then we took a short walk around the park. I also stopped at HEB to get a couple of things.
The weather was cloudy and 65 with a little wind. That's perfect for working so when I got back I spread out the sand. I mixed half of it with the cement and spread it, then I put the other half of the sand on top.
I was all finished before 1:00. So I went in, had lunch, and watched another movie. I started a second movie, but I stopped about half way through because I was just tired of watching movies.
I did a little surfing and then about 6 I couldn't keep my eyes open. So I sat in the recliner and the next thing I knew it was 8:00.
