Day 928

We got up at 7 today.  After pet stuff and breakfast it was surfing until about 9 when we went to the club for the shoot.  We had fun talking to the people we hadn't seen in six months.

The course was really easy - a Dan Mitchell course.  Ellen didn't do well.  I shot OK, but nothing spectacular.  I came in second and got a punch though.  I was shooting some competition shells Dan gave us.  My shoulder was pretty sore by the time we were done.

We ate lunch there so that we could talk to people.  We didn't shoot in the afternoon though.  We were too tired.

After lunch I decided to try to install the new TV.  I figured the job would be a bad one, and it was.  I spent quite a bit of time trying to get the new TV to fit the old mount.  No dice.  That included two trips to the Woodburn hardware store to buy bolts.

I finally decided we needed a new mount.  It was 5 on Sunday though.  I went to Wally World.  They were supposed to have them, but we couldn't find them.  We couldn't find anyone to help us either.  So we went to Lowe's.

Lowe's had a nice mount, but it was a little expensive.  No matter, we're rich.  I also bought some more bolts that I thought I would need.  On a whim I went to look at Dewalt stuff to see if anything was on sale.  They had a promotion that gave you a battery and charger if you bought a saws-all.  It was on when I bought mine last week, but nobody told me about it.

So I bought another saws-all.  I got the next to last battery that they had in the promotion.  I'll take the other one I bought back, probably tomorrow.  The battery and charger cost as much as the saws-all.

When I got home I continued with the TV.  The mount kit contained all of the hardware I needed, so I'll take the bolts back with the saws-all.  I did have to take the mount apart and reverse one of the arms.  That turned out to be a pain in the ass.

I got sidetracked cutting the shelf I bought for the dog toy cabinet, so I didn't get finished attaching the mount to the wall.  There's always tomorrow.

The rest of the evening was a little surfing and then another early bedtime.
