dalthauserToday I had a headache most of the day. Jeez! - yesterday gas bubble - today headache. I'm friggin' falling apart! :-)
I couldn't afford to sideline myself - there is just too much to do.
I went to Walmart and bought an electric chainsaw. I require one now since the pile of limbs by the meadow tree is now big. I was planning to hand saw the larger pieces into burnable size; however, there are too many and it's just too hard. Anyway - got the saw home and used it to cut one piece and the bar comes loose (yes, I did read the manual before operating). I took it apart and tried, with the help of the manual, to figure out what was wrong - no luck. So, I brought it back and went to Home Depot and got the same brand (Remington) only the "deluxe" model for $20 more than what I spent at Walmart. The deluxe model is self-oiling and has an easier way to tighten the chain. I got it home, but it was too late to play with it - too much other things to do. Tuesday!
Brought veggies over to my next door neighbor Gerry early in the evening.
Tonight around 9:30pm I was talking to my dad and the weather went crazy. Temp dropped by about 10 degrees and winds kicked up. Next came the rain. I had to hang up so I could get the windows rolled up in the truck and let the dogs in. I ran a bath and while bathing the power went out., so I spent the rest of the evening playing with the dogs in the dark. Power came back on at around 3am - I woke up on the floor with the dogs lying around me, got up and turned all the lights off - then went to my bed. It was a good night overall - I had fun hanging with the dogs with no other distractions.
