Working Wednesday

I got up early again this morning so that I could get a few things done before Stan got here, so I had my oatmeal and read the paper and then I started some more demolition. This morning I took the nails out of the wood that we ripped out of the floor and one wall so that no one would step on them.

Then I went upstairs and tore out some more dry wall, took out the florescent light fixture and then cleaned up the mess that I made so that it would not be tracked all over the house. As I was outside the mailman came so I went out to the street and got the mail from him. There was not much there, so I recycled most of it.

About noon I decided to make myself lunch as I had eaten breakfast earlier than I usually do and I was starting to get a little hungry. Since Stan had not gotten here I though I would take advantage of it and eat while I could.

Shortly after I ate, Kathleen left to pick up Alyssa so that she could take her to the hospital. Originally, she was going to watch the grandchildren, but Hayden was coming down with something, so Alyssa thought that it would be better for Dan to stay with them and Kathleen to take her.

Stan finally got here around 1400 as he was finishing up another project. We tore off the portion of the ceiling that we needed to patch, where I had taken out the florescent light, the can light and the fan. Rather than do a patchwork patch job, we thought that it would look better if we replaced that whole section to make it look nicer.

Stan had to leave early and he and his wife were going to look for some windows for their house. He had not realized that it was as late as it was, so we did not get a lot done today.

Tomorrow I will need to go out and get some electrical boxes, new outlets and some switches. I could have gone tonight, but I was tired and Kathleen had some things that she wanted to pick up. Stan has to finish up another job tomorrow morning, so I am hoping that we can go to the store and pick the stuff up and get back before Stan gets here.

Kathleen called a couple times to let me know that Alyssa wan in the recovery room and probably would be leaving there about 1900 or so, so that means that Kathleen would not be coming home until around 2000.

With that in mind I decided that I would make myself a Morning Star basil and sun dried tomato pizza flavored veggie burger and some Tatar Tots for dinner. Just as I was sitting down to eat, Andrea, Toni and Brandon drove up, so I opened the door for them and told them that I was just sitting down to eat.

They waited in the living room while I ate. Then when I got done eating I went into the living room and played with Brandon for a while. He is really starting to crawl around a lot. He was giggling and cooing the whole time he was here.

Well, I am tired, I have not had any time to regroup and rest up at all this week, so I am looking forward to the weekend. I can not think of anything else to write about so I will just say good night.
