It's been a long day. I installed the light in the closet. The pull chain switch had gone bad and was stuck in the "on" position. I had to screw and unscrew the light bulb to turn it on and off. I put a sock over my hand to unscrew it because it got hot. It installed rather easily. My father was an electrician and I used to help him. I also helped Ted with the new wiring when we renovated our bedrooms in Vineland. I have Ted's electrical kit with all the tools and supplies that I need.

After lunch, I set out to paint the stain on the picnic table and benches. I did the legs and the bottoms of the benches. I also started staining the landscaping timbers with the redwood stain and I stained the fence. I just had to slop it on so I got a few brushes at the dollar store. I won't bother to clean them; I'll just throw them out. I painted as much as I could before stopping for dinner.

First, I had to walk Danny. He grabbed something up off the ground and was chomping away at it. I didn't know what it was and he would not drop it. I couldn't get it out of his mouth. It appeared to be bread. Some kid must have dropped his sandwich. I hope it wasn't pizza. He'll be throwing up all over the place.

My niece came with the jewelry. She took my CD project. Her husband may be able to load my slide show and burn it to a DVD. I hope he can do so. That will be a big load off my mind. I tried playing around with it on my lap top this morning but no luck. I can almost get it but I run into road blocks. I have a movie maker program. I loaded my CD into the computer but many of my photos were missing. I don't know why it didn't load properly.

I had my dinner late and watch some online TV. I watched the Greatest American Hero. Ted and I liked that program. I like some of the oldies but goodies.
