Day 1141

We got up about 8:15.  Then it was pet stuff and breakfast.  It was cold and still blowing.  I did go outside to check on the truck shelter.  The roof was starting to blow off.  So I got out the ladder, re-positioned it, and tied it back down.

The rest of the morning was spent surfing.  About 11:30 I called the Amish.  They said that the bookcase would be ready for delivery next week.  That got me started clearing out the old bookcase.  I'd been meaning to do that for awhile, but hadn't got around to it.  The new bookcase only holds about half the stuff of the current one.

Ellen and I spent the next hour and a half going through the bookcase contents and deciding what to throw away.  We pitched old paperback, photography books, hobby books, and a lot of old software.  We got about half of it done before I decided to stop for lunch.  After lunch we went to the post office.  We had to pick up a package and see about one that hadn't been delivered even though Amazon said it had.

At the post office I got the first package and asked about the second.  The lady went back and found it.  My Christmas tip to her pays off.

Then we went to Best Buy.  It was cold, so we stopped at the coffee shop there.  Then we went to Best Buy and picked up the rest of the SD cards.  We also got them to hold the TV until next Wednesday.  The dealership didn't call today (I didn't expect it).  On Monday I'm going to tell them to either have the truck ready on Tuesday or give me a loaner to pick up the TV in.  I'm getting a little pissed off at them.

We stopped at HEB on the way home to pick up bread and lunch meat.  Then we went to Tomlinson's to get cat food.  Lucy made out like a bandit.

When we got home I had to tie down the other end of the truck shelter roof.  Then I spent about 45 minutes boxing up the books we no longer want and sorting some of the ones we hadn't got to.  Then it was time to take the dog to the mailbox.

Dinner was sloppy joes.  After dinner was TV - Ellen's fantasy shows.
