We woke up about 8, but didn't get out of bed until after 9. Then it was pet stuff and breakfast.I did a little surfing and then called the body shop. He said that the bumper had come in today. It should be ready for installation later in the week. We were on our own today because John and Melissa went to help Isaac.
After that I went outside and measured the length of cable I need to shore up the back yard fence. It was 51 feet. Then I sighted in the pellet rifle I brought from Oregon. The squirrels have been devastating the bird feeders.
Ellen contacted the seller about the broken bird feeder. They said they would either refund half the money or we could send back the feeder at our expense for an exchange. So we left for the post office. On the way we stopped at Lowe's for the fence cable and a drill bit to complete fixing the railroad tie.
When we got to the post office of course we had to wait. It turns out that the cheapest shipping to return the bird feeder is $46. It cost $50. We're going to cancel the charge. Our last stops were Goodwill to drop off some stuff and HEB for bananas, milk , and bread.
When we got home I used the drill I'd brought to finish repairing the railroad tie. It came out pretty good. John came uot to help. When we were finished I invited him to come to the house. Melissa has had a relapse. She's feeling bad enough that she called her doctor and got some prescriptions.
Ellen fixed pork chops for dinner. John ate dinner with us and then took a plate to Melissa. The rest of the evening was TV - an interesting 3 part series on the revolutionary war.
