I am happy to report that I got the bathroom shower project done. It did take a lot longer to finish than I thought it would. I forgot to take a finished picture to post. If I get time I will stop tomorrow for the picture. I checked out the couple with the air conditioner problem. They need to have a new electrical circuit installed from the breaker panel. I gave them a price on how much it would cost and wasn’t happy with the price. My next stop was to repair a toilet which needed a new water control valve. Being that it is a Kohler it cost more for the repair parts. I was able to get them at Lowe’s. It was 4:00 pm before I was done for the day. Cheri was busy with housework and a visit from Jean out next door neighbor. This afternoon she make chicken and dumplings to have for supper. I am always happy when she makes them. We watched a couple more Hallmark movies this evening and are now all caught up on the shows we have recorded. Thank you God for a blessed day.

I actually slept in until 5:30 am this morning as I didn’t have any work today. Cheri and I left at 11:15 am and headed to Tampa because I had a follow up appointment on the results of my C-scan on Saturday. Good news the spot on my lung hasn’t changed. The not so good news is there is a new spot in my left lung. I will have to go in for a biopsy. Just have to wait for the appointment. We missed lunch today and stopped on the way home at Olive Garden. We both had salad and shrimp scampi along with hot bread sticks. We were disappointed with the shrimp scampi as it didn’t have any flavor. It was 4:00 pm when we got home. I did get a call from a person here in our park that is having an electrical problem tripping a breaker on a portable air conditioner. Well when I went to check it out nobody was home. So I will have to check it out tomorrow. We both napped some while watching TV and had to rewind one show as we missed a lot while napping. Thank you God for safe travels and for the VA taking care of me.

Grandma didn’t go to church with us today because there weren’t going to be any notes for her. So she went to church with friends in her park. Pastor James delivered the message today as Pastor Randy and a group from our church are in Israel this week. After Sunday school we stayed and did some measuring for new cabinets in the Sunday school kitchen which I will be installing. When we got home we changed clothes and took the extra box of flooring from the Sunday school kitchen back to Lumber liquidators. Then a trip back to Dade City to see a client that is in rehab at Royal Oaks. It was after 4:00 pm when we arrived home. Cheri settled in to watch a couple of Hallmark movies and I went to the bedroom to watch the NASCR race. After the race was over I joined Cheri to watch another Hallmark movie. Thank you God for time spent with you today along with church and Sunday school friends.

Cheri and I didn’t go to the Hole in One donut shop for breakfast this morning as I had a fasting appointment this morning. I left the house at 7:45 am heading to Tampa VA for a 9:30 am C-scan on my lung as it has been six months since my last scan. I arrived early and got in just before 9:00 am. When I got home Cheri was busy doing the dusting and then to work in her sewing room. I headed out to work at a place here in the park to repair a toilet. It had been leaking and refilling. I was surprised as it was a new toilet. Whoever installed it didn’t remove the rubber band that holds the flapper down during shipment. So after a time it broke and got caught under the flapper causing the leak. It was an easy fix and he asked me to check the other toilet as it was new. And sure enough there was the rubber band but hadn’t got caught under the flapper. Then I stopped by the bathroom project and explained to her about the water reversal that I needed to fix. Then it was back home to clean out the truck and get things ready for the afternoon working on the camping bed frame. I would have had that project done but Lee wanted to help build the second one. She arrived at 1:00 pm to help and we finished around 4:00 pm. by the time I got all of my tools and saws put away it was 4:30 pm. It was 92 degrees and today and made it very hot working outside. After a good hot shower and supper we settled in for a normal evening of TV, Cheri watching and me napping. Thank you God for a blessed day.

Hard to believe this that last day of May. The time goes by so fast I can hardly keep up. Cheri was also busy with laundry and Friday house work. My day started with breakfast and Bible study with my accountability group. After that I had an 8:00 am appointment at Sunday school to see what the next step is going to be in the Sunday school kitchen. Then it was back to work on the bathroom project and was able to finish except for a few things. One problem I had was with the water. I was told that the water faucet was wrong and that the hot and cold needed to be reversed so I did that when I hooked up the new faucet. So after all was said and done I check the water and it and now the hot and cold are wrong. Now I will have to crawl under the house to make the change. The only thing I can think may have been is the cartridge in the old faucet was installed wrong. It was my fault for not checking it out myself. It was 2:00 pm when I found this out and was depressed and was going to have to quit by 3:00 pm to get ready to go out for dinner with Mike & Pam along with Ron and Sandy to celebrate Mike and Pam’s 50th wedding anniversary. We had a good time and got home around 8:30 pm. We were both really tired and decided to go to bed and watch TV there. Thank you God for being with us today and spending time with friends.
