Working with gopher skulls

Friday

I got up soon after 7. I took supplements and got dressed. I went out to water the plants and get the sprinklers started. I flooded a couple of gopher mounds and pulled up tumbleweed sprouts. I filled a bottle with water and went to Bible Study.

When I arrived at the chapel, Janet was there getting the tea ready. I gave her a can of tea from China. She opened it and we discovered that it was looseleaf. But Sunmer said we could just add it to water. So Janet and I did. Summer's kids and Jenni used bags of tea. Jenni and I promised to bring tea balls next week.

We took turns reading from the Bible, then discussed the chapter. Summer had to go open the swap shop, so Janet said a prayer. Then she packed up her tea things and we headed out.

I went home. I went through e-mail. I called the doctor's office to resolve the issues with getting through the patient portal. I made and ate breakfast while listening to Dr. Ruscio.

I made and ate breakfast. I laid out in the sun and read. We went to the commissary for the usual groceries. Then we went to Tooele. In addition to the usual, we stopped at Cal Ranch to get some hose fixings.

We drove back to base. I read e-mail, then ate supper. Chris left for his game. Show time! I put gopher skulls in three of the spherical molds. I mixed a batch of resin in an old medicine bottle. I poured it, then couldn't find jump rings so I had to use beads. There wasn't enough resin so I mixed another batch. I hope I had the proportions right. I put them in the garage to harden. Jamie came over to get the key to 147.

I made tea and put some gopher bones in a baggie. I went to Michelle's house for Game Night. I gave the baggie to Isadora who was thrilled. We talked. I played KK5, but things didn't go well. So I quit to play Indiana Jones. That didn't go well either. Casey called Michelle, and she talked me through KK5. According to her, we almost finished the game. I quit at 11, but she kept talking. It was after 11:30 when I got home.

Chris was still up. I quickly posted to my blog and we went to bed.
