I woke up at 8, played games for a while, and then got up for pet stuff. No breakfast because I needed a blood test. Instead I took up an old unfinished job.
Years ago I installed a sliding door in the master bathroom so that there was some slight privacy if desired. The install was a real pain in the ass. As I finished the install I discovered that there was no way to anchor the door stop. The door would slide off the guide if you opened it too far. I was too tired and disgusted to fix it. Somehow it never got fixed. Today I fixed it.
Adding a set screw to the factory door stop would require removing both the door and it's rail. That's probably why I didn't fix it. After a little analysis I figured out how to make my own door stop. It was simple and only required removing a couple of small parts and drilling holes in them. I did that. Then I added a door stop made out of some leftover M4 threaded rod and a couple of old plastic door stops. The whole fix took an hour or so and really improved the door.
It was going to get hot today (eventually 90), so I went outside and walked the property while the dog ran. It was 11 by the time I was finished. That's when I went to the doctor. When I got back I had breakfast and surfed until it was time to take Ellen to her eye doctor appointment. I sat in the truck outside and played games.
When she was done we went to Central Market. We were going to buy a birthday cake, but they didn't have one. We went to HEB instead. We'll see how good it is tomorrow.
I did some surfing and some video watching until dinner. Ellen fixed beef and rice. After that it was videos and surfing for the rest of the evening.
