Day 3118

 I woke up about 8 and got up for pet stuff and breakfast.  After breakfast I helped Ellen put the laundry into the car.  I stayed home while she went to the laundromat.  I took Abby outside with me so that she could watch while I worked in the shed.

I started by unloading the wood from the truck.  Then I cut two of the pieces to fit the shelves.  I had to cut their width as well as there length.  I installed the shelves and then started moving things onto them.  I filled the bottom shelf with 12 ga.  That gave me enough room in the other bottom shelf to hold the rest of the skeet stuff.

I was going to caulk the last floor patch, but I decided not to.  I did cut a piece of thin shelving board and screwed it onto the older patch to reinforce it.  That worked really well and didn't harm usability because it's covered with a pad.  I swept out the whole shed and then put the coverings over the last patch.

I spent some time reorganizing where everything was.  Then I put all of the scrap away.  That involved some reorganizing, too.  Finally I vacuumed off the workbench.  It was covered in sawdust.  The end result is a shed that's clean and better organized than it's been in years.

Ellen got home about the time I finished.  I went back inside and surfed for a while, followed by lunch.  After lunch I decided to get out the RC speed measurement device and play with the Grom.  That's when I had the biggest attack of old age that I've every had.  I couldn't find the speed device or the Grom battery charger.  I looked high and low for both.  I searched everywhere.  I finally gave up and started to watch videos.

That turned into a nap.  When I was finished I revisited a couple of places that I'd looked before.  I found the battery charger, but not the speed device.  I also couldn't find the Grom controller.  I gave up again.  A little later I looked under the bed for the controller.  I'd looked for the battery charger there (it wasn't) and had to move the controller to look for it.  I never did find the speed device.  I was so sure that I'd packed the speed device, but it's probably in Texas.

This whole episode makes me very fearful for the future.  My brain is turning into mush.

After all of that I just didn't feel like doing anything.  I did a little more surfing and then videos.  Ellen cut my hair and then fixed steak for dinner.  It was good.  Abby got a couple of scraps, too.
