Day 1917

 We got up about 8:15, did the pet stuff and had breakfast.  It was warm again today, high 70's.  We went oiut to button up the apartment.

I'm a little worries because there's still some water dripping out of the wall.  Everything's soaked, so it may be that.  It could also be another minor leak.  We'll see in a few days.  

Putting the first two panels back on was pretty easy. I put in more insulation when I did it.  This time it's between the outside wall and the pipe.  Doing the corner wasn't so easy.  There were two problems.  I had to remount a 4x4 wood block that the outside faucet was attached to.  With the new insulation that wasn't easy.  I could barely get the drill inside the wall to attach the screws.  The second problem was the corner.  I had to cut a notch in it to fit around the wood block.  That hadn't been necessary when they built the place because the block was attached before the apartment was built.  Getting the corner attached was a little hard.  The top two screws were really high up on the wall.

We were done with the whole thing about noon.  The Spectrum guy was scheduled for 3, so we quickly left to go to the post office, get lunch (Fireman's), and stop at HEB.  HEB has recovered nicely.  There was no lines and the only area without stuff was the bakery.  Some of the shelves had bare spots, but not much.

Spectrum slipped their time to 4, so we were back in plenty of time.  I took the time to box up the rest of the ammo.  Now all I have to do is put all the stuff in the apartment back where it belongs.  I'm going to give it a little more time to dry out.  I had it opened all day today and will probably do the same tomorrow.

When the Spectrum guy got here he messed around for awhile and then announced that the buried cable from the pole to the house was bad.  He said he'd scheduled a contractor to come out tomorrow to fix it.  Unfortunately we have to wait around all day for the contractor to show up.  Then the Spectrum guy has to come out on Thursday to complete the fix.

I put the rest of the ammo in the boxes.  We had gone through a total of 20 cases to get rid of the rust.  Dinner was leftovers.

After dinner I ddi games and surfing.  Ellen watched chick flicks.
