Fixing Popken's rucksack

 


Tuesday

I got up at 7:30, no RLS. I went through my morning list, then took a steam session. I opened swap shop by request. I read online, then mended Popken's pouch. I ate fiber gel and read out in the sun. I made and ate breakfast.

I went to my 2pm inspection at 1:30 so I could check the house for anything I missed. But two of the inspectors were already there. They went in with me. The younger one found something and I cleaned it up. Everything else was fine. We signed papers and I gave Bobbie the key. We chatted and Jack showed up.

Then I went by the garden to see what the watering options were. Someone had hooked up a 4 spigot head and there was only one spigot left. So I went home and got hoses from my shed. I read a little, then opened the furniture room by request. I proceeded to the garden to hook up to the last open faucet. It took a while to untangle the hoses. Then I discovered that I only needed two so I brought one hose home.

I stopped at the swap shop to lock it, grabbing the tall laundry basket. At home, I replaced the tall box holding mops and brooms. I jotted notes for my blog.

I worked on Popkens rucksack, but I could not get it under the needle. I had to sew by hand. I also checked out the new sewing machine. It has no cord but it makes stitches. Chris came home from work. He put my supper in the toaster oven and his supper in the microwave. I worked on my blog. I ate supper, then mowed till the battery ran down. I raked up sticks into piles. I put all the tumbleweeds in their own pile for disposal tomorrow. I hope there is no wind tomorrow.

I made tea. We watched an episode of Criminal Minds. He went to bed. I stayed up a little later, then got ready for bed.
