Day 3530

 I woke up about 7:30, played games, and then got up to feed the cats and take Abby for a walk.  Ellen didn't want to get out of bed.

Abby and I had a fine long walk.  No one is here or shooting.  It was in the 60's, so Abby didn't get hot.  When we got back I had breakfast.  By that time Ellen was up.

I showed Ellen what had to be done to caulk the shower fixture.  I went outside to the shed to fix its floor.  Once I got it uncovered it was clear that I'd need more materials.  I took the truck to Lowe's to get them. 

I bought a 4x8 sheet of plywood sheathing, 2 treated 2x4's, and a can of Flexseal.  It was $70.  Most of that was $49.50 for a single sheet of plywood.  When I got back I went to work.  I cut out one rotten piece of flooring and cut 2x4's to support it.  I cut out a new piece of flooring and used Flexseal on one side of it.

While that was drying I cut out another piece of bad flooring, cut 2x4's, and set them.  In the middle of that I coated the other side of the first patch.  Then I cut the second patch.  I had to wait for paint to dry so I went inside to have lunch and watch some videos.

Eventually I went back outside and screwed the first patch in place.  I also coated one side of the second patch with Flexseal.  The third patch is going to be hard to do and I was feeling tired so I called it a day.  I went back inside for some videos and a nap.

That took the rest of the afternoon.  I had something frozen for dinner and then started surfing.  I did go out and paint the other side of the second patch.

I forgot to call the hunting place.  I'll have to do that tomorrow for sure.
