I woke up a little after 8 and played games for quite a while Then it was up for pet stuff and breakfast. After that I got the Christmas storage stuff out of the garage and started taking down the tree.
I cleaned the ornaments off the tree and eventually Ellen started to box them up. When the tree was bear I took it apart. That was a pain and getting it into the tree bag was a bigger pain. Then I took the tree bag out to the apartment. The handcart was a must.
Ellen was still boxing up ornaments. I got out the vacuum and vacuumed the whole living room. I figured I might as well since I had it out. When Ellen was finished boxing everything up I took the boxes out to the apartment and the handcart to the back storage building. The last step was putting the furniture back.
After that I was tired. I surfed for about an hour and then started on videos. That didn't last long until I was bored. I tried to find a movie I liked. I started at leas 4 or 5 movies. I'd watch them for a few minutes and then decide that they weren't worth it. Mainly it was because they were all the same story I'd seen in other movies of the same type.
A Little after 3 I gave up and went outside to install the new porch lights. I took down the old one and threw it away. Then I mounted the panels to the roof and the lights under the eaves. The new lights came with mounting plates which made this easier. The final steps were to pound in wired holders for the wires and seal the holes in the roof with caulk. The whole thing took about an hour and a half.
Ellen fixed stir fry for dinner. After dinner was videos. I took out the garbage about 8. The new lights work well and are really bright. The motion detectors don't have a long range, but that's OK.
