We didn't have much to do today, so we stayed in bed and surfed. That's one of the great things about being retired.
When we did get up we just did some more surfing. I did sand down the flamingo we bought Sunday and repainted it. It looks really nice.
After noon we took Lucy to the park. She did a good number of retrieves considering it was sunny and in the mid 70's. She was a hot doggy when she finished. Then we went to the post office. It was jammed, but I managed to get a space in the parking lot. That's the first time I've done that in over a week. We were expecting some packages, but there wasn't any mail at all.
We had a coupon for Red's Back Porch, but we ended up going to the new restaurant across the street form Harbor Freight. I'd been meaning to go there since they built it last year. They allowed dogs on the patio, so Lucy ate with us. They brought her water, and gave her a couple of dog cookies.
There's a yuppie grocery store in the same strip mall. We went over there to get some Chinese mustard. We ended up getting a pineapple and some Belgian chocolate also.
We stopped at Staples on the way home so I could get a refill for the labeler I use for the train. Of course we had to go to the pet store next door. Lucy scored a z-bone, plus a couple of frosted cookies for later.
When we got home I was going to start wiring part of the control panel. That's when I realized I couldn't remember much about the plan. Unfortunately some of my notes didn't seem as clear as when I wrote them last spring. So I spent some time figuring it out and making a diagram in MS Paint. I still have some more work to do there.
The evening was binge watching the Blacklist. We actually might do more of that tomorrow.
