Day 3619

 I woke up at 7:45, played games, and then got up for pet stuff and breakfast.  Today was the day to patch the trailer, so I went outside to set things up.

I put down blankets on the gravel and made some measurements.  Then I cut the patches I'd made to the right sizes.  With all that ready I got Ellen to come out to help.  I wouldn't have been able to do things alone.  She served a second pair of hands to hod tape, lights, and other things.  It took a while, but we finally got the patches taped in place.  We used all but about 6 inches of the tape.

I still need to spray the patch with flex seal.  It was getting hot though so I called it a victory.  I can spray it tomorrow.  It will be cooler and it's not going to be a big job.  I'm really happy to have the last big pain in the ass done.  The last thing to do is get the truck fixed.  I'll do that after the mower is done.

We went back inside and watched videos.  That turned into a nap.  When I woke up it was more videos.  I didn't have lunch, just a snack.

Ellen had been working on masking the Slash most of the day.  It's going to look good.  I got tired of videos and got out the Opel body.  I painted the lights and the bumper.  I have to wait until the paint dries before I can finish the lights.  I actually had the paints I needed when I searched through all of the old paint collections.

Ellen fixed a nice dinner - chicken, potatoes, and asparagus.  I guess she's going to start doing that when I take the Mounjaro.  I'll do that before I go to bed.

After dinner I surfed and Ellen watched chick flicks.
