Day 2562

 I woke up a couple of times in the early morning, but succeeded in turning over and going back to sleep until about 8.  Then it was some games before getting up for pet stuff and breakfast.

My original plan was to go to the mall today.  That changed when I saw that the Fireteam was going to be delivered today.  Plan B was to do a bunch of the little activities that have been piling up.  The first was to take out the garbage.  Then it was to clean up the paper on the kitchen table and clean the table itself.  That involved taking the trailer paperwork back to the truck and putting my new license in my wallet.

After that I started to work on the RC stuff covering the table.  I washed the two RC bodies and used steel wool to scratch them up.  Then I installed the rear bumper on the Power Wagon chassis.  Finally I installed a front bumper on Ellen's mini-b.  Ellen put the window masking on the RC bodies and I put them away.  The end result was a clean table and a lot of little things accomplished.

It was after 1 when I finished and had lunch.  The Fireteam still hadn't been delivered.  I'd been checking about every half an hour and continued to do so.  I'd run out of little things to do and didn't want to start anything big.  I surfed and watched videos instead.

Ellen left for the club before 4.  She called me from the gate to say that the Fireteam had been delivered.  I hadn't got a notification because it was shipped FedEx.  It came in a large heavy box which was in a lightly larger box.  The shipping box didn't make it into the house.  I broke it down at the gate.

I carried the box inside and finished some surfing.  Then I fed the cats before opening the Fireteam.  It is huge and heavy.  According to the web it's about the same size as the Kraton.  If seems bigger though.  It is certainly much higher.

Another package came.  I went out and got it.  It contained a present for Ellen, so I wrapped the present.  I didn't put it under the tree because I don't want her to know what it is.  I'll add it in a few days.

I started going over the car to see what improved parts I'll need.  It was basically what I thought.  I got dinner (leftovers) and started to look for parts.  I wanted to use Amain, but all of their prices were higher than Amazon.  I ended up ordering everything from Amazon.

After that I sat down in the recliner and started watching videos.  Ellen got a new metal model thing today and she started working on it.
