My Monday Morning

This morning after I ate and read the paper I ripped up the splash guard from around the downstairs bathroom and took it out to the garbage and I also took more of the recycling out as well. Then broke up the old backboard and put it into the garbage can, which pretty much filled it up.

Then I went into the back yard and started digging up the area where I want to put in a new pathway leading to the vegetable garden and the raspberries. By the time I got done I was pretty tired and when I went to get the cement bricks that I was going to use for the pathway I did not have as many as I needed because I wound up making the pathway wider than I had originally planned on so I will have to come up with a plan -B-.

So before I went inside I went up front and got the mail. Kathleen had come downstairs so I showed her what I had done and while we were we grabbed some raspberries before going back inside.

After reading the mail I went and sat in my chair for a while and then got up and made myself a salad and a brat. After putting the dishes into the dishwasher I went and sat down again and woke up when Kathleen came downstairs because we wanted to run a few errands.

So I went upstairs and changed clothes and then we took off; first stopping at church so I could drop off our Campbell soup labels and General Mills tops for schools at the pre-school office.

Our next stop was Bi-Mart to pick up thirty pounds of sunflower seeds for our bird feeders; that ought to be about enough to carry us to winter. Kathleen also picked up a few plastic boxes to store things in.

I though that we were finished but Kathleen had one more stop...Fabric Depot. She had ordered a heavy duty thread holder for her large spools of thread. While she was getting that I stopped and looked at the day light lamps and they are now carrying a new item that is for fly tying. It is a magnifying lens that clamps onto my fly vise. I did not get it yet as I am not able to do any fly tying right now because my room is full of stuff from the hall.

Anyway after she got her thread holder she wanted to look around some more so I went to the waiting area and looked through a couple fly fishing magazines. We finally got home around 1800 and Kathleen started making dinner.

Well, I need to get ready to eat so I am going to close this now and post it so that when dinner is ready so will I.
