Day 3728

 I woke up at 8 - 7 really since today was "change to daylight saving" day.  I played games for a little while and then got up for pet stuff and breakfast  It was in the 50's, so I put on a long sleeve shirt.  After breakfast we drove to the Best Buy by I5.  They had the computer that I was interested in even though the website said they didn't.  

The computer is OK.  It's got a huge touch panel that will make typing harder.  I'll probably turn it off when I'm typing.  They only had the 16 GB version though.  I ordered the 32 GB version, but it won't be here for 10 days.  In the mean time I'm getting used to the failures of the current one.

The donut place was open so we stopped there on the way home.  I got a maple bar.  The quality is just as good as ever.  We also stopped at Circle C so Abby could run.  We only did a partial course because everything was muddy from yesterday's downpour.

With that done we stopped at Tomlinson's to buy Abby some bacon chews.  Then we went across the parking lot to have brunch.  The place has kind of weird food, but it's really well done.  From there it was home.

By then it was 2:30.  I went to the garage to make some progress on the trailer.  I put the hinges on the tool box.  That took a while because the hinges didn't really fit.  I had to mess around a lot with placement and modifying the box.  I finally got it to work fairly well, although it doesn't look very good because I had to mount the screws with the heads on the inside of the box.

 After that I drilled out the nuts in the top part of the jack.  That's going to work out well.  Then I started working on the pad.  I'm making a round pad out of a piece of square flat.  I've got it roughed out, but there's some grinding to do.   By then it was after 5:30 and time to quit.

When I went inside Ellen was watching a chick flick, so I surfed.  Later she switched to videos and I joined her.  It was videos for the rest of the day.
