Day 1947

 I woke up about 8 and spent about an hour playing games before getting up for pet stuff and breakfast.  After that it was outside to accomplish stuff.

The first task was connecting water up to the trailer.  I wanted to make sure that the cold weather hadn't affected any of the pipes.  I left it connected all day.  I checked it several times during the day and didn't see any sign of leaks.  I also installed the new shower head - a two minute job.

The next item was putting the rugs back in the apartment.  They've been sitting in the back of the Polaris for weeks.  I wanted to make sure that everything was dry before I put them back down.  While I was doing that I was reminded that the closet doors had been damaged by the water and wouldn't work any more.

I took the doors off.  They are foam core doors with open bottoms because I had to cut them to make them fit.  I used a plane to remove all of the foam that had oozed out of the bottom of the door.  Then I taped the bottoms of the door and soaked them with spray paint.  I hope that will make them less water absorbent.  Then I put them out in the sun to dry.

I got out the sawsall and started waling the fence.  I trimmed some small trees that were starting to grow branches through the fence.  Along the back fence there were two places where I had to cut 2 to 3 inch branches that were lying on the fence.  I got over near the far corner of the property before I ran out of energy.  I was hot an tired.

I stopped the fence work and finished up the closet doors.  I put aluminum tape on the bottom of the doors and hung them up again.  They work at least as well as they did before.

By then I was hot, sweaty, and tired.  I went back into the house, took a shower, and made myself a quick sandwich.  I ate it while we took the cats to the vet.  We were happy to find out that the vet thinks they both look really good.

After the vet we went to HEB for a few items.  Then it was home.

The rest of the afternoon was RV videos.  I'm developing another "things to do to the trailer" list.  Ellen fixed meat loaf for dinner.  It was really good.  After dinner was some game playing and more videos.
