Today's been one of those days!
I started by hooking up the
new printer I bought yesterday!
Then I had to start troubleshooting, cause it wouldn't print!
That's why I got tired of the other one...not only was it ancient, it only printed what & when it wanted anymore!!!???
When it finally did print, it knew the time/date etc!?
All's well! In that department anyway!
Ray was going to work........we've been having trouble with the outdoor stove.....there's a short in the wiring on the door!
OI!
It quit all together this morning, and like always he says, "I gotta get to work."
Never mind that we had called an electrician earlier this week, and he was coming today.....NOT!
I said, "I'll fix it!"
Famous last words at my house!
I think I missed my calling!
Here is the broken black wire, and you can see the white one has a bare spot!
The black piece covering the wires is heavy metal under that rubber piece!
I got my
leatherman, (of course I have my own, and I used to pack it around in my purse, but that's heavy enough!), some wire cutters, some murrettes, some wire, and a big honking wrench!
It ain't pretty, but it works!
I only took the skin off one finger right under the nail;
& the dog & cats might have learnt a few new words; just sayin!
Here we are......fan is working!
I told Ray it would be good until Spring, or until an electrician comes, whichever came first.
We're at a disadvantage up here in gas plant country!
Those guys really rake it in working for those oil companies......
not too many want an hour job at someone's house!
Look what I found out in the snow!
I think it's some kind of moth.
Just so ya know it's alive...it did this when I went to touch it!
Kalen will be home this Friday!
The floors are vacumed & washed............I tried to figure out a day during the week that I could do them........I got nuthin!
Laundry's done, I even made up the bed in the spare room!
The snowmen & women are all put away, and the Easter Rabbits are out!
Menus are planned, going to PR tomorrow for groceries.
Here's his card I made way back when!
V called,"What are you doing?"
Me: "I'm in my room....making Kalens' birthday card."
V: "It's January!?"
Me: "I know, it didn't start out being his birthday card!"
I got a desk full of projects!
The desk is also full of fun stuff I got in the mail this week!
I got it all this week, now I'm just overwhelmed and don't know where to start!
$86.75!!!!
There's my going to Michaels money!
Of course I'll probably add to it.....I've got a list going!
My meeting minutes from the Friends of the Library are typed up, just gotta e-mail them to the chairperson!
Supper's made!
Now I need a nap!
Better go, try & be creative!
Talk to ya later!
Ta ta for now!
