I worked on changing out a
vanity today. They wanted me to get the old vanity out in one piece so they
could donate it to Habitat for Humanity. It took me over an hour to get it out
as there was so much caulking and screws holding it in. I had to make a trip to
Lowe’s for some additional plumbing supplies as I had to move the water lines
for the new vanity. Long story short I didn’t get done today and they have to
make a decision on what they want to do with the floor as there was new
flooring put down over the old and the new vanity won’t cover all the old
flooring. I quit work at 4:00 pm as I knew I wasn’t going to get done today.
Cheri was busy with her Tuesday house work and Ironing. She also painted a
picture frame to match the cubby cabinet. Cheri fixed us a ribeye steak and
baked potatoes for supper. This evening we went over to Larry and Denise’s to
play Hand, Knee, and Foot. We played two game and we all came away winners,
much more fun that way. Thank you God for guiding us through another day.

Cheri got another coat of
paint on her cubby cabinet. It is another humid day with a high in the 80’s so
the paint doesn’t want to dry. I worked here in the park installing wheels on
three gates in the carport, repaired another patio gate at would shut properly,
and installed a new light switch in the bathroom that was causing an electrical
outage. I was back home by 1:00 pm. After lunch I got my truck ready for tomorrow’s
work of removing and installing a new bathroom vanity. Cheri made a trip to
Wal-Mart and it was very busy and glad to be back home. They were still out of
the coffee that we buy there. We will check again a couple of days. Maybe it is
time to change to a different brand. Cheri fixed us ham steak, mashed potatoes,
cheese cauliflower for supper, and a cherry bar for dessert. We picked up new
friends that live here in our park that are attending our church and Sunday
school. We headed to Dade City for our yearly Sunday school meeting setting
things up for the next year. It started to rain on the way up and had a hard
time seeing the road with the oncoming traffic lights. It continued raining off
and on through the night and see this morning that we received ¾ inch. Thank
you God for another blessed day.

It was a warm and humid
morning and afternoon with a high in the 80’s. Grandma went to church with us
today. Pastor Randy’s message was titled “Emotions of Christmas; Facing Our
Fears”. From the Book of Mathew 1: 19-20. We started a new study book in Sunday
school. Our lesson today was “The Deceiver” from the book of Genesis 37:18-29.
Cheri had planned on putting another coat of paint on her cubby cabinet but it
was still tacky from the first coat. So our afternoon was spent in our
recliners relaxing, reading, watching TV, and some napping. A good way to spend
an afternoon. Cheri fixed us pizza for supper and leftover dessert from the
Christmas party last night. Thank you God for a restful day and time spent with
you and friends.

Hard to believe another
month has gone. At 7:45 am Cheri and I headed for the donut shop for our usual
Sat morning breakfast treat. It was much warmer this morning and Cheri decided
that she wanted to paint her cubby cabinet. So I got things set up for her in
the Sunroom for painting. I worked outside in my shop work area getting things
back in place. It was so bad that I couldn’t even walk around the area. Cheri
and I took a break around noon to rest a bit. Cheri had the primer paint on the
cubby. This afternoon she got the first coat of orange paint on the cubby. The rest
of the afternoon she made three different desserts to take to the Sunday school
Christmas party. I continued outside and got most of the shop area cleaned up
and ready for the next project. Later I made a trip to Wal-Mart to get some
more containers for tools I carry in the truck and found out that being at
Wal-Mart wasn’t a good thing as it was really busy and hard to get around. I
tried to buy some coffee while I was there but they were out of it. Then I stopped
at Lowe’s to get the new Kerg jig that I will be using on a couple of upcoming
projects. On the way home I stopped to check out a project of installing a new
bathroom vanity which I will be doing either Tuesday or Wednesday. When I got
home I relaxed with Cheri for an hour before it was time to pick up Jan and go
to the Sunday school Christmas party. We had a good time with lot of food and
friendship. We had a Christmas ornament exchange and testimony time. There were
53 of us at the party. It was near 8:30 pm when we arrive home. Thank you God
for time spent with our Sunday school friends.

Yep it is Friday which
means I was out the door at 6:10 am heading to Dade City for my accountability
Bible Study and Breakfast. Today we studied 2 Timothy chapter 2, good stuff. I
didn’t get home until 8:30 am as we spent more time visiting. Cheri was busy
doing laundry and then getting ready to go to the bank and then grocery
shopping. I unloaded the truck and separated the old roof singles from the
underlayment and put them out for trash pickup. By the time I was done with
that it was lunch time. After lunch I retuned a few things I didn’t need from
the roof project to Lowe’s and San Antonio lumber. Then I stopped by Ron and
Sandy’s to unload all the old underlayment and scrap lumber I had for the fire
pile. On the way home I stopped by Harbor Freight to check out a blind screw
jig I read about in my Handy Man magazine. I didn’t think it was as nice as the
Kreg jig which is a little more money but a better tool. So it is on my list to
get as I will need it for another project I will be doing this month building
shadow boxes. After filling the truck with gas I headed home. It was 3:30 pm
and decided I had done enough for the day. Cheri fixed pork chops done in the
oven with a new type of coating the Nikki told her about and they were very
good. We spent the evening trying to get caught up on TV shows we have
recorded. The day started out on the cool side but turned out to be a perfect
fall day. Thank you God for a blessed day.
