Day 175

I woke up at 7:30, but decided to go back to sleep for about an hour.  After breakfast I went out to finish the change I made to the layout.  It was really successful.  The engine now goes up the grade really easily.  That's the good news.  The bad news is that many of the track junctions that have wire connections aren't smooth.  I'm going to have to rework each of them.  I really didn't feel like that.  So I quit work on the layout.

Instead I went to the garage to set up making some +P 9mm.  The dies are in the Dillon, so I needed to mount it.  I'd read about a neat idea that involved building a mount out of plywood that is clamped into a WorkMate.  So I went to Home Depot and got some plywood.

It was a little after noon.  I was going to go to the Taco Time at Brodie and William Cannon.  When I drove in I noticed a Chinese restaurant next door.  So I went there instead.  It was nothing special, but it was better than Happy Panda at about the same price.

I didn't take the dog to Circle C.  She was pretty stove up last night and I want her to have a day off.

When I got home I built the base and sorted out the brass that I'd put in the cleaner.  After that I didn't feel like doing anything else.  I went inside and cleaned up the dirty pans and sink that have been sitting since before Ellen left.  I finally got tired enough of them to clean them.  Then I got a Mike's and sat out on the porch and surfed.

The evening was surfing and TV.
