Day 3494

 I woke up at 7:30, fed the pets, and then played games.  When I got up I had breakfast and then went outside to drain the shower tank.  It was already in the high 70's.  I took the dog for her walk.  They'd opened early because of the heat (it got to 100), so we could only go to I5.

When we got back I moved the 4 cases of shotgun shells back to the shed.  While I was doing that Ellen peeled up the scotch tape on the floor.  The floor patch turns out to be a resounding success.  The floor looks perfect.  Hopefully it will hold up.  It's also very nice to have all of the patch materials - shells, towel, glue, etc. back in the shed. 

I surfed for a little while and then took Ellen out to plan painting the two RC bodies.  We settled on colors and then went to the RC store.  We took Abby with us.  The RC store has expanded and it's really nice.  I bought tire gluing stuff while Ellen picked paints.  By then it was lunch time.  

We stopped at the pet for cat food.  We weighed Abby.  She's lost a pound, down to 33.4.  She's going to be getting more food.  Then we ate lunch at the DQ.  Abby got chicken and french fries.

When we got home I noticed that Abby had salt on her collar and had gotten it all over the back seat.  Apparently she'd rolled in the salt pile the pump guy had left.  Dave had had the workers clean up the small one on the house side, but they left the big pile on our side.  I ended up shoveling up 100+ pounds of salt into a bucket and hauling it over to the trees.  I did it in 94 degree sun.  I was too tired to vacuum the car.  I'll have to do that tomorrow.

I went back inside exhausted and dripping in sweat.  I started to watch videos and eventually napped.  It was hot for the rest of the day - 85 at 9 pm.

Ellen fixed chicken and corn on the cob for dinner.  It was good.

After dinner was more videos until I got bored and switched to surfing.
