It started of pretty wet around here this morning with the 4.6 inches of rain we got yesterday and last night. The neighbor next door that had the new driveway put had a lot of sand up against it and we are on the downhill side, bet you can guess where all that sand is this morning. Yep most of it is underneath our 5th wheel. I shoveled what I could get back up around the driveway I hosed down as much as I could so the grass will grow up through it. Cheri took Grandma to the doctor this morning to get her B 12 shot. So while they were gone I worked on the toilet water shut off that had a slow leak. It being a park model trailer it has all the water lines run with flexible pipe and pressure clamps around the fittings. I had to cut the old shutoff out and then made a trip to Lowe’s to get the special adapter to make the connection to the flexible pipe. It was a neat adapter with the shut off built right into it. While I was checking out at Lowe’s I got a call from Cheri wanting to know where I was and when I would be back to Grandma’s as Grandma didn’t take her keys with her and they were locked out. So they had to wait a few minutes for me to return. After I got the toilet shut off fixed I headed home for lunch and Cheri was in the middle of making deserts for our Life Group meeting this evening so I headed back to Lowe’s to pick up a new shelf for Grandma’s shed. A container of siding wash had been leaking and got on some cans of paint that where sitting on the shelf and eat though the bottom of the cans and dripped down on the next shelf. It turned out to be quit the mess. The two shelves were eight foot long. I replace one complete shelf and was able to make one out of the other two, another project done for Grandma. It was after 2:00 pm before I got home. I started the grill and did a couple of steaks. So we had a very late lunch or a very early supper. Our Life Group meeting was another interesting evening. Our lesson for the evening was How to Figure Out the Will of God without Hearing Voices from Heaven. It was fun hearing everyone’s thoughts on the subject. Cheri’s peanut butter pie, pecan pie, and woppie pies were a hit. We didn’t have much left to bring home. After we got home Cheri had to watch Dancing with the stars and had guessed who would be voted off. After we went to bed around 11:30 pm we got a telephone call which we didn’t get to in time and a short time later come a knock at the door. Grandma’s neighbors were worry about her because her outside light was going on and off and they could see a light on in the bedroom. So we hurry over to see what was wrong. It turned out that Grandma was ok. Her security light has a motion detector on it with two light bulbs in it. With both bulbs screwed in the light goes on and off so I had unscrewed one of the bulbs so it would work correctly. Well apparently someone screwed in the other bulb to give her more light and the results was the security light started going on and off. I have had the bulb unscrewed for over 6 months, guess I should have taken the bulb out of the socket. Well it was after midnight before we got back home and we were wide awake so we turned on the TV for a while.
