Saturday Was Another Productive Day Around The House

We decided early not to go to the Starlighters dance and while looking at the calendar, we discovered we had tickets to see Jay Leno at Cerritos.  We called several people but alas, they were all busy!  Finally, we were able to give the tickets to our friends the McEntee’s.  Fifth row center, they will enjoy the show and they will be with friends (several people bought tickets to see Jay Leno when we did the mass purchase).

Paul did errands, wrote the next 30 days birthday and anniversary cards, went to the market and post office, and also did a Staples run… Paul is still organizing things!

In the afternoon, Paul worked in the garden.  Mid afternoon, the nice people from Amazon delivered his new Makita 6 1/2 battery powered circular saw.  Paul dropped everything and fired it up cutting several slices out of some one inch plywood, cut like a knife through butter!

Paul loves having no power cords to drag around!

Sue was mostly resting/asleep today so Paul continued on his quest to do chores.  The “camera Drawer” was next on the list. Paul had lenses in the drawer from camera long gone bye bye.  Half the drawers contents disappeared.  He even found fresh Kodak film… Well, fresh meaning it was still in the box!

In the later afternoon the middle bedroom was the target!  Paul re-did the electrical cords by putting in an adaptor to one wall socket.  The adapter had six gazintas (goes into’s) plus four computer plugs.  Gone are the old extension cords.  It’s funny, in the old days having six plugs into one socket was a fire hazard…. Today it’s nothing because the power pulled by each individual items is peanuts.  Example: the light stand light was 150W, with LED’s it is 9W!

Sue got up and Paul fixed dinner (three table spoons of soup) and we watched TV until about midnight!

 

About Paul

Just an old retired guy trying to finish out my last years on this planet. I lost my best friend and wife in early 2020. I was blessed again by reconnecting with Dr. Mary Côté, a long-time friend. Mary and I got married July 28th, 2021, and are enjoying life together and plan to spend the rest of our lives being a blessing to our friends and family.
