Water sampling

Tuesday

I got up at 7:30. I got ready for the day. I took a water sample from the kitchen faucet, then ran the faucet while I turned on the sprinklers. Then I took another water sample. I watered the plants, moved the sprinklers, etc. The paper towel was still dry, so the in-ground sprinklers had not come on.

I filled out the paperwork for the water samples. I used the chlorine test strip but I could not match it to the color chart because the little blocks were not an even color. I put the samples back in the box and put the Fedex label on the box. I read e-mail and checked messages. I hunted all over for Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, but could not find it.

I was going to go to the chapel to work on Kelly's dress and top. But that didn't happen. I peeled hardboiled eggs and put them in pickling juice. I ate three of them because they didn't peel well. Then I laid outside to read in the sun. But then I remembered Jenni said the Fedex truck would come to the commissary around noon and she would let me know since she was working there.

So I went inside where I could hear the phone. I made and ate breakfast. I read articles and finished a couple of interviews. I went to the library to make copies of music. Keli made them for me. I chatted with Janet.

Then Jenni called. She said there was a building where I could drop off the Fedex package but I didn't know where it was. She said she would come over at 3:30 and take me there. It was about three, so I went to the chapel to start work on Keli's clothes. I left at 3:30 and went home to wait for Jenni. While waiting, I scattered a bag of coffee around the front and side yard. Keli came by with two dozen eggs. I gave her a bag of coffee to make dinosaur eggs.

Then Jenni texted that no one had come in to take the next shift (of bagging at the commissary). I found a map and was going to take it to Jenni to point out the building. Then she called to say the Fedex truck was at the commissary right then. So I ran in the house and got the package. I drove over to the commissary and saw Jenni talking to the driver. As soon I drove up, Jenni left. I handed the package to the driver and she said it was acceptable. We chatted a moment and then we both left.

I went back to the chapel to finish marking and pinning and sewing. Then I texted Keli that I needed her to try on the clothes. I packed up, turned off the lights, and went home. I jotted notes for my blog. Chris came home from work and made himself supper. He cooked zucchini and rice for me. I read outside for while. When I came in, I ate those with half of the remaining liver.

I made tea. I noticed the sprinklers on so I went outside to observe. The ones along the house were not active. Then we watched one episode of Criminal Minds and read a chapter from the last devotional book. He went to bed. I read for awhile, then I got ready for bed, too.
