I got up early, did two loads of wash and hung it out on the line. I watered all the flowers and cleaned the birdbath. I drilled some holes in a molding I plan to put on the wall to support my mirror. I was in the shed looking for Ted's tools to countersink the screws. I found a few things but not the counter sink bits. I found the holder Ted made to keep them in but have no idea where I put the tools that were on the pegboard in Vineland. I found a box of cups and things that belonged in the kitchen. A mouse had gotten into the box and shredded the newspaper I had packed them in. I took the things out and put them in the dishwasher. It filled it up so I ran that. I was exhausted from the heat but took Danny out. He stayed in the yard as he didn't like the heat either. I jumped in the shower before lunch. After I rested for awhile, I called Ted's mother. I hadn't talked to her for awhile so I had a lot to tell her. It's 102 degrees on my back steps. I roasted taking down the wash. This afternoon, Danny went to the bottom of the step and marked his territory on the nearest blade of grass. He sniffed the hot air and headed back into the house. I started to get ready to paint my landscaping timbers this morning. I got my brushes and things together but when I picked up the redwood stain, it felt nearly empty. I'll have to go to Home Depot before I can do that job. I had some 4x4 board in back of my shed so I had my contractor cut them to fit my flower gardens out in front of the house. I had placed some of them last fall across the front but needed to have some cut to finish the sides. I have to stain my picnic bench the contractor fixed for me and both front and back steps need to be redone. First I need one of my nephews to power wash them and the shed. Things are getting done slowly but coming into place.
