Day 1685

It was another 7:30 wake up time.  After breakfast and pet stuff we went out to dig weeds.

We dug for a little over an hour.  I was really tired by the time we were done.  We managed to clear off most of the remaining weeds by the carport.  We also cleared most of the area between the trailer and the shed.  We've got one more hard days of work and then two or three easier days.

After weeding it was time to wash clothes.  I actually ran out of underwear today.  We talked to the owner for awhile.  He's actually been doing good in spite of the flu.  We sat out in the car instead of in the laundromat.  It was much more comfortable and maybe safer.

When the clothes were finished I had a craving for french fries.  So we went to Mickey D's.  Then we went to the outlet stores.  We spent quite a while walking around.  We got plates, the thing we came for.  We also got a t-shirt for Ellen.  There were quite a few empty stores in the place.  There was a fair number of people, but the stupid governor has limited the number of people in a store.  We skipped a couple because I wasn't going to stand in a line.  The line outside the Nike store had to have 40 or more people in it.  I'm not interested in ever buying their stuff.

When we got home I went out to the shed to fix the plate holder.  I wanted to add barriers so the plates don't fall out again.  I had to modify the old big plate holder to match the new plates.  Then I cut up a bamboo box to make parts for the small plate holder.  It took quite a while to make.

It was dinner time when I finished.  Ellen fixed the bacon wrapped chicken we'd bought at Safeway.  After dinner I surfed for a little while and then went out to clean the shed.  Ellen was watching chick flicks when I got back.  I sat down in the chair and fell asleep.

I woke up a little before 9.  I wrote up the blog and then went to bed.
