Day 2900

 I woke up about 8 and played games for a while.  I like not having any reason to get up early.  Then it was pet stuff and breakfast.  After that it was out to the garage.

The first task was to install the battery shelves.  All the wood was cut already, so I did the assembly with the brad nailer.  I love that thing.  I assembled the "fence" around each shelf.  Then I attached the braces to the shelves.  Finding the right sized screws took longer that attaching the braces.  Then I attached the "fences" to the shelves.  The final step was attaching the shelves to the cabinet door.  It took tome to do everything, but the whole effort went smoothly.  The result works really well.

The next step was to rearrange the cabinet.  I removed some stuff I didn't need any more.  I set aside a corded nailer, corded drill, and cordless screwdriver for Hooch.  I set aside 3 obsolete battery chargers for Goodwill (I still have 6 or 7).  I also spent some time removing the foreign language pages from the Dewalt manuals.  That reduced their bulk by 2/3.  After some rearranging of the equipment I was able to put the power washer and the nailer in the top shelf.  Everything is much easier to access, too.

By then I wasn't feeling like doing anything with the bottom shelf.  I left it for tomorrow and went inside for a late lunch.  After lunch I surfed.  I totally wasted the extra hour the switch from DST gave me.

Dinner was leftovers - shrimp, rice, and cornbread.  It was the best leftover dinner I've had in a while.  I ate it while finishing a movie I started yesterday.  When the movie was finished it was videos.

A note on Ellen.  She's been working, too.  Yesterday she did a lot of bush trimming outside.  Today she spent hours going through the bank card slips from the trip.  There were LOTS.
