Saturday

I woke up at 730 a.m. on Saturday. I got ready and headed out to get my hair cut. From there I went to Kroger’s and picked up a few items I needed. Next I went to Westborn for some grated parmesan cheese and a loaf of that Rustic Italian bread.

Finally, I went to Home Depot and bought two landscape timbers and 20 foot long sections of 1/2 inch rebar.

I came home around 11:30 a.m. and unloaded my stuff. I put on my work clothes and, well, got to work.

My first task was to straighten up the garage as best I could under the circumstances. Then I swept it. I moved the rack holding Vicky’s cabinet doors inside. I still need to paint them all and the garage is getting too cold for that.

Next I went out back in the truck and grabbed all the landscape timbers that Rick gave me (I had just stuck them under the play structure at the time). I took them up and put them in the garage. I need to drill holes in them for the rebar.

I watered the front porch hanging plants, the mum and the two hostas I transplanted.

Inside, I washed the stove. By then I was getting hungry. So, I took the remaining slices of pork and chopped them up (I am over Cubano sandwiches for a while). I put them in a pan, added some Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ sauce and put it on low heat.

I stripped the bed and started the weekend wash. By them the pork was starting to break up, so I used another hoagie roll and made a nice BBQ pork sandwich for my dinner.

I went to watch some TV, but the damn cable was out again. So, I stuck a DVD in and watched a movie until bedtime.
