We got a fair amount accomplished today. I guess that's what can happen when you get up at 8.
We started by going to get the car's oil changed. While we were there Hooch called. We agreed on Mom's Christmas present.
Then we went to the grocery store. It was time to stock up on the usual, plus we got a ham for future consumption. After that it was a stop at Circle C so the dog could run. See didn't seem too excited when we drove up, but she sure did a lot of running.
When we got home I called up the monitoring company and set up an account for mother. It took awhile. If I'm lucky the stuff will be there by Christmas. They are sending it USPS.
After that I took the pruner out to the gate and started chopping away at the tree limbs overhanging the driveway. The result should keep it clear for the trailer for quite awhile. It did take the better part of an hour to do.
Finally I could work on the cart. I cut up the rest of the parts. Then I started drilling holes. Using the drill press and a corner clamp made it easy to make accurate holes. The downside is that it's slow. I have to drill a total of 24 holes to assemble the main parts. I managed to get 14 done before it was time for dinner.
I've been having Ellen fill Lucy's dog bowl while I take her to the mail. This has caused Lucy to really want to get back home. When I open the gate she runs really fast to get back to the house. It's funny.
The evening was surfing and reading. Ellen is watching a bunch of weird fantasy shows. They suck.
