Shower Curtain


Last night when I went to bed the shower curtain had fallen down, I took to the family room to keep out of the way. This morning when I got up I put the show curtain back up and was able to shower. As soon as I finished, it came down again. I watched the morning news. I fed the cats and fixed breakfast. We watched the morning TV shows. Carol left for her exercise class. I went back to my bathroom and after several tries, the shower curtain is in place. I don't know how long it will stay up.

There was a potato in the pantry that was grow sprouts. I cut into four pieces yesterday and planted them in greenhouse six this morning.

Robert and Dusten

 

I was still eating breakfast when Robert came. I finished mt breakfast and then turned the power onHe had an extension cord hooked up to the compressor. He was going to start our tractor. It has been years since we had it running. It runs diesel fuel. Dusten brought his truck to the tractor to charge the tractor battery, The fuel filter leaked. They drove to Fillmore and got a new filter. They finally got it started, Robert drove it over to get the tree spade. Todd Troset had a tractor that could lift the tree spade and put it on the trailer. Todd was working on a ditch and couldn't come. Dusten backed his trailer and began to load it on his trailer, The got it loaded. Dusten secured it to the trailer and hauled it away. Robert then drove home.

I could have taken plenty of pictures but I only got one and I took this one after Dusten left.

Lights Went Off

Day light saving ended early this morning. I got up and checked my apple tablet and it showed that we were on regular time. I thought that I would get up any way. It was really dark outside. I showered and started to make old fashion oatmeal mush. I fed the cats. Richard got up and soon Carol got up. We had breakfast. Richard got a phone call and didn't finish his breakfast until later. We went to church and as soon as we walked into east door the lights went off. Someone had a portable amplifier which was used by the speakers, The power came back on during priesthood meeting. We had most of our dinner. It was not cooked at all. Carol peeled and boiled and mashed the potatoes. She also fried some pork chops. After dinner Richard left. I watered the germination tray in house five.

The power was off in Scipio to Cove Fort.

Planting Seeds

It was a regular morning, except Richard was gone. After breakfast we watched the channel 7 wood working shows and cooking shows. For lunch we roast beef sandwiches. This afternoon I worked in house five planting vegetables and melon seeds. I cleaned all of the old potting soil of the heating mats, I plugged the extinction cord. The mat appeared to be on. 

I wrote the names of the seed on a a white stick label. I shake so much I couldn't read it. I took the seeds into the house; Carol wrote the name of the seeds on the white stick. They can be read. Richard came back. He has been fishing with his friends. We had supper.

Electric Fix

 

Carol made hamburgers for lunch. The tasted very good.

The night light in the bathroom would not come on. when I went to bed last night. I tried several things to get it to come on. It still did not come on. I tried several things this morning. I turned braker switch on and of several time, our neighbor across the road is a election. I thought he would be able to fix it. I found his phone number. Carol didn't want me to call him because he works with bigger power lines. I put a note on Face Book. About an hour later the phone rang.  He had seen the note and was soon at our door. He did several tests. It was an easy fix, He went right to work and soon fixed it. The problem was in Carol's bathroom. There was a switch on the west wall. It had been shut off. He turned it on. That fixed the problem in my bathroom. Carol plugged in her hair dryer, It worked. Richard gave him a $20.00 tip.

Richard has been here most of the afternoon. He fixed the blinds in the west window in the front room. It now looks new.
