Almost out of baby formula so I went to Walgreens early to get a couple cans.
Then a trip to the grocery store. Picked up a bunch of fresh veggies, some meat, a few frozen pizzas (I've been craving pizza) and now home. Baby is asleep next to me. Nothing much planned for the day.

I haven't bought a cassette in eons. Honestly, I didn't even think they sold those anymore. I haven't even bought a cd in a very long time.Just got home..... Listening to a cassette I got when out today(Keith Sweat - "Make it last forever")
I didnt realise this was his first album and that I had heard so many songs off it!!!! (The only song I knew by name was 'Make it last forever')
I'm celebrating because I have 4 days off!
?♀️
No exciting plans, but I'm sure one of the kids or friends will drag me out to do something. Lol

Spent the day yesterday unpacking and clearing snow around the fire pit for a fire last night. We burned through 7 pallets and a medium wooden cable spool. Today was dump day. Heading to the church soon to play the service. I've been voluntold that I'm playing/ singing by myself today. With covid, nobody in the congregation can sing.
Now that the new concrete floor is hard, I'm in the Garage Annex sorting everything off the walls so I can insulate, wire and panel it. 6 foot wide and 24 feet long, I will be demising it into two rooms. One at 8 feet X 6 feet blocked off by an insulated wall. And one 15.5 feet X 6 feet full insulation walls and ceiling. I'll be using outdoor r3eversbatten siding for the walls which will allow me to hang stuff without using molly's. I hate molly screws.
I have 12 gauge wiring but only 20 Amps so I'll need to run a a new 30 amp line.
Once the rain stops, I have the new driveway to finish. A lot of of rock to move and lay in. Plus finish movement of big landscape stones and a 4" drain for the water feature. Winter is coming. Gonna be a busy week here.

My son worked in the shop today so I worked on the COOT, details in the ATV section. I also changed some florescent lights in the kitchen, converting them to a universal LED bulb. They work great and even work id the Ballast unit is shot. $9.00 each and suppose to last 35 years.
Not a whole lot today. Legs and back told me that I was keeping my butt firmly planted on the chair by the fireplace all day.
Got errands to run.
Lunch with the kiddo at Big Boy.

Took a trip in to the city to do some clothes shopping for myself as I don't want to get caught without anything that actually fits me if the guberment orders the stores to close again because of rising Corona numbers.
I got home from work today with just enough light left to move some big landscape rock around the water feature.. Flat limestone pieces stacked to resemble and old cliff. Most weighed about 100 to 150 Lbs 6" thick and 2 or 3 feet in diameter. Again, I will try and do pictures.
New computer and software., maybe my wife's phone camera.....I'll have to beg her to help.

Spent some time on the Nordic Trac, now enjoying some coffee while watching the local morning news.
Nothing planned other than some afternoon babysitting while the lovely Mrs_Bob takes her sister to the cardiologist for a consult.

No real plans today so I loaded up the flat deck trailer with an old refrigerator from camp to bring to town to drop off at the recycling place. I also had 8 large bags of empties sitting by the garage for ages so I brought them to drop off at a friend's place who is collecting them for their girl's dance group.
Then I went over to my cousin's place to pay respects for their son who died. I hadn't seen her in years. Her son had autism and epilepsy. Even still, he was 21 and enrolled in college in a business program. While I was there, they received a call from the college advising them that he had signed up for a life insurance policy and they would be receiving enough money to pay for his funeral.

Finally getting my son's 2000 Dodge van off my trailer so I can haul everything at the Springfield house to the new site this coming weekend.
It has been dead for 5 years but he brought it home from Connecticut and wants to fix it up. It previously sat in his driveway for 5 years in need of an alternator. Now, it needs everything.
He's 47 and can do it hisself.
As for me, I'm leaving tonight and will be in Springfield 'til Sunday.

Spent the morning in the garage working on rusted rocker panels on my son's car. He's going for his road test next week to be able to drive alone. Years ago when I did my license, I wrote a written test then the next month, took a road test for my full license. Now, they have a 3 step graduated licensing program. Write a test. Practice for a year with another licensed driver. Go for a road test then be able to drive alone for a year before doing a second road test to get your full license. If you do driver's education you can cut the first year down to 8 months. That was pre covid. Of course our son did the test in February and took driver's ed. He was supposed to be able to go for the road test at the beginning of October but covid created a backlog. Now, they are booked in to march. But they had a cancelation for next Friday so he took it.
I was out in the garage preparing the new rocker panels for installation this morning then came in to clean up and head to the funeral for my cousin's son. It was a nice service. As he is native, there was traditional drumming and burning of sage sweet grass and cedar. My uncle, who is a pastor, officiated the ceremony.
