A nice day. Dillon, a man Bill hired to fix his front room window screens and replace the wood that is rotting was here yesterday and again today. He is quite talented and very meticulous in his work. He wants it right and so works hard to make it perfect. The new screens are in and the whole frame that goes around the four windows as well as between them is completely new, painted and he is putting on metal around also so as it won’t rot out for many years. He will be back Monday to complete the project. He will talk to Charles on Monday and do a couple of odd jobs for us.
It was interesting watching him bring out this machine that cuts and bends metal. He set it up, then used it to cut each piece to fit perfectly. I had just seen that machine on “Homes on Homes” so knew about what it did. I enjoyed watching it in operation in person. It seems that all his equipment is duel purpose and his van is well situated with a place for everything, all neat and nice. He doesn’t waste time but at the same time, he doesn’t hurry through what he is doing. I am impressed and so is Bill.
The weekend is supposed to be lovely weather wise. We plan on going to Knoxville tomorrow to visit Dottie and Max. We will take her and go shopping and probably out for a hamburger as Dottie loves Hamburgers. I think we are going to COSCO as there are a few items we need from there. Where else I am not sure. Maybe check on Dallas. I doubt we will go over there as company gets the dogs all excited and Dallas is supposed to be kept calm, no running and no jumping, etc. She is a Puppy! It will be fun. Sunday, church, then we need to get some small household duties accomplished and then spend the rest of the day doing nothing. R & R.
Quote of the day: “Tending the Grass” “The grass is not, in fact, always greener on the other side of the fence.” writes Robert Fulghum. “Fences have nothing to do with it. The grass is greenest whee it is watered. When crossing over fences, carry water with you and tend the grass wherever you may be.”
From Bits and Pieces.
Have a great rest of your Friday. And a fantastic weekend. Make both enjoyable, adventurous, pleasant, relaxing, safe and fun.
Blessings
