Day 3116

 I woke up about 8 and played games for a while.  Then it was up for pet stuff an breakfast.  After that it was outside to work on the shed.

I started by setting up things so that Ellen could paint the floor reinforcement for the second set of shelves.  Then I started repairing the destroyed flooring in front of the work bench.  Yesterday was the first time that I'd sat in the chair there since we got home.  When I did a chair leg went through the floor.  I decided to use the 2'x2' piece of flooring that I had left from the previous repair since it had FlexSeal on one side.

I had to cut out the damaged flooring just like before.  Once I did that I cut new pieces out of the remnant.  Then I removed a little dirt and put in most of a sack of rock in to support the patches.  Finally I installed the patches and screwed them down.

When that was done I went to work on the new shelves.  I installed the end caps for the legs.  Then I installed the top two shelves.  They're light and I don't anticipate putting anything heavy there.  I left the bottom two empty because I'll need to get heavier boards for them.

Then  I moved the ammo out of the way.  I also moved some stuff that was hanging on the wall out of the way.  At that point Gerry arrived and we went shooting with Garret and him.  It was a nice sunny day and we had fun shooting.  I had the usual moment of glory followed by moments of stupidity.  Garret had a release trigger gun that I shot.  It was weird.

When we got back I put everything away and went back to work on the shed.  The paint was dry on the floor reinforcement, so I put it in place and screwed it down.  Then I put the new shelves on top of it.  I also put some of the stuff I'd moved early in their new places.

I finished up by putting everything away and moving the new stand I'd made a few days ago into the car port.  I took the old one over next to the shed and put FlexSeal on the top of it.  After that it was inside for videos and a much needed nap.

Dinner was leftover pizza.  After dinner was a walk to the trailers with the dog.  She did an amazing amount of running and was a little tired when we got back.  Then it was videos until bedtime.
