Today I tackled all the broken projects. We have 2 little chests of drawers in the living room. One has my sewing notions in it the other has other odds and ends. In all of the jostling on the road coming down here one of the wheels broke off because the board it is screwed into broke. So, I glued it back together and drove a little nail or two into it. Now it is drying.
Last night I filled the holes on the face of the garbage drawer with wood putty. I broke it off last week trying to get the garbage out of it. It had 4 little screws holding it on and I managed to yank it off the screws. Hmmm. So, today I sanded the wood putty, backed the screws out, lined it up, glued it (with wood glue) and screwed it back in. Now it is drying.
Next, I tackled the closet. OMG! I took all the clothes that are on hangers laying on the floor and put them all on the bed. Then I took all the clothes that were on the shelf in there and put them on the bed. They I took all the shoes out. I took everything out of the closet and it is all piled on the bed. It almost touches the ceiling.
Then I started tackling the repair job. I fought and cursed and propped and glued and somehow managed to get it back together.
I was so hot and sweaty that I decided it would be a good time to go check out the pool.
It was flippin freezing. It is a small pool, it is probably only 5 feet deep and it is gray. I was expecting, by the size depth and color, not to mention the warm sunny days, that it would be warm. It took my breath away! But I stayed in it for awhile until it was warm enough to enjoy and I was cooled off enough to survive and then laid in the sun for awhile. Finally I went back to the rig.
I took Bella out for a walk. We walked over to the tortilla place and bought some nice, freshly made, still warm tortillas and walked back. I peeked in a couple shops, but there really isn't anything I am interested in.
We went back and I had a peanut butter and banana tortilla burrito. They are so good.
I am hooked on a Netflix series called "The Fall" It is sooo good, I am probably killing our data limit. I actually started watching it a couple years ago and the series ended. I kept watching for it to start again, but I never found it. It is on Netflix only and I got away from Netflix so never found it again. Last night I was looking for something and found it. I got hooked again. I watched the first series throughout the day and evening yesterday and last night, and Now I'm hooked into Season 2. That is where it ended before and totally left us in limbo.
I watched for a bit and then took Bella out for another walk. We walked all around this complex. She was on her leash. This gal drove up in her quad and when she got out 3 dogs, two small one large all jumped out. The two came right over to Bella and started sniffing which made her nervous, and then the 3rd, a bigger one came over and attacked her. The gal came and grabbed Bella's leash and pulled her away from her dog so I could pick her up and then she started hitting her dog. Bella was ok, just shook up and had pooped herself. I told the lady to stop hitting her dog, but she didn't I needed to get Bella away and told her "I have to get out of here, I can't stand people who hit dogs" I took Bella home and cleaned her up.
I finally curled up on the couch with Bella to watch The Fall. Finally it was time to go to sleep. Remember, my bed is full of all the clothes from the closet.
