Internet down

Monday

I woke up hearing Reveille, but went back to sleep. I got up after 7:30 having slept REALLY well. I felt good and I looked good. I brushed and swished. I took supplements. Chris left me a note saying the internet was out. I fertilized the plants. I read from 1984. Depressing book. I checked, but still no internet. I got dressed and went to the apartment to clean.

I cleaned the inside of the fridge and the inside of the microwave. I pulled the stove forward and cleaned behind it. The floor of the oven was bad so I turned on the self-clean cycle and left.

I went home for lunch. The internet was still out. Chris said they didn't know when it would get fixed. I told him that according to my video which I left playing last night, the internet went out about 1:15. He went back to work.

I ate the bowl of breakfast outside. Then I came in and pulled something from my downloads file to read (or listen to) as I ate the pistachios and half a banana. I listened to two tapping audios from the downloads file.

I paused the second one to go to a final inspection at 646. It passed, but I had to point out all the things that would not come off the walls and cabinets. Then we signed the papers. I went by Housing to turn in the key.

When I got home, I finished the audio. Jamie came by to rake up all the tumblweeds. I gave her her share of the 646 money. Then I went to the apartment to clean. While I was cleaning, I got a call from a man who wanted a quote now because he was vacating quarters tomorrow. So I dropped everything and ran over there.

The house had a group of men who had been there only 3 nights a week for the last six months replacing roofs. So it was fairly clean except for the master bath tub, which was black on the bottom. It was on Jamie's street so I called her and she came right away. I was thinking $250 and she suggested $500. Since we quoted so badly on the 646 house, I went with her estimate. Well, he thought it was too much and she came down to $400, He said he could do that and made plans to pay Jamie with Venmo.

I went home for supper. I put a bowl of beef in the toaster oven. Then I took Chris' hat to the sewing room. I thought stitching the point of the brim that was loose would be easy, but I couldn't tell how it was constructed. I did some by machine and some by hand. Then I scanned and printed out two hymns for Sunday.

There wasn't time to eat. I took the hymns and went to the chapel for band. Only Keli was able to make it. So we played through the hymns and through the Broadway tunes. We agreed it was fun and went home.

Chris had taken the beef out of the oven. It had cooled off, but I ate it anyway. I also made a salad and tea. We watched an episode of Walker Texas Ranger and started a second one. But it was extra long, so we paused it. Chris packed his suitcase and went to bed. I stayed up to recreate the conditions of last night in the recliner. At some point before midnight, I took off the headset and went to bed.
