Day 1364

We woke up at 8, but didn't get up until 9.  After pet stuff and breakfast I went out to start installing gas struts on the basement door.

I measure out where the strut connections needed to be.  Then I used epoxy to attach the reinforcement plates to the compartment door.  Gerry showed up when I was doing that.  I told him I meet up with him and Garrett when I got to a stopping space.  I used up the last of the epoxy on the fan base in the shed and then got out my shooting stuff.

Ellen didn't go.  Her asshole was giving her trouble.  I met up with Gerry and Garrett on station 3.  I shot like crap.  I haven't shot that badly in years.  I don't think I hit more than half the targets I shot at.  Maybe part of it was using the 20 ga and #9 reloads, but I certainly didn't have fun.

When we were done I put everything away and then had lunch.  After that I went back out to the shed.  I wanted to accomplish something.  I started by sorting some of the hulls I shot a couple of weeks ago.  Then I reloaded them.

After that I finished up doing the wiring harnesses for the cabinet LED's.  I completed the last string using wire left over from other projects.  Then I wired all three strings to their battery boxes.  That involved taking the boxes apart, unsoldering one wire, and then soldering in the wiring harness.

When I was finished with that I still didn't feel like quitting.  I retrieved the big boxes that the subwoofer and trailer cable winder had come in.  I packed 3,000 12 ga wads in each.  Since I'm not going to get my eyes fixed I'm beginning to think about going to Richland.

By then it was after 4.  I went inside and watched TV until Ellen fixed dinner - tempera shrimp and rice.  After that the rest of the evening was TV and a little surfing.
