I went to the post office and asked about a package that was supposed to have been there yesterday. Had 2 slips in the box but was only given one package and the clerk said there was only one. Different clerk this time. She checked and found it. Clerk from yesterday hollered out an apology to me (she was in the back). I told her there was no problem, it happens.
Went to Tractor Supply to get some feed for the cows. Then to Burger Inn to get some friend chicken, corn nuggets, and a catfish platter. I don't know how they make the corn nuggets but they are good.
Cows were happy to have feed-- although the younger one is limping. Not sure what's wrong & she's skittish so I can't get her to hold still to let me look.
Currently lying down with my cat Predicate on my arm. He spent almost all night clinging to my hand/arm. He followed me in to the living room earlier and climbed on my shoulder.

A book I ordered was supposed to be here Sat., then Sun., then Monday, then today, now tomorrow. Don't ya just love the P.O.
It wouldn't be so bad if they told you it was going to take a week, then it actually showed up.

I got talked into doing a modular home. It's been a long time since I did one. It's a double wide unit and the carpet is 13 ft 6. The carpet says Shaw on it it looks to be typical apartment grade. I wish the people that bought these modular homes went to a real carpet store and purchased real carpet. Shaw makes some very nice carpet, but this ain't one of em. 
We just got the carpet pieces cut and positioned yesterday and actually it feels like it's going to be very nice to work with. Girl of carpet is about 80 ft long and there's only three seams, totaling less than 9 ft feet. One half of the unit is a wood grain sheet vinyl the other half is all carpet so I'm going to have around 38 ft of metal to put down, almost all of it on the marriage line.

Did a bunch of those for a place that sold trailers. Hated it.I got talked into doing a modular home. It's been a long time since I did one. It's a double wide unit and the carpet is 13 ft 6.

The home sales guy didn't ask for a price.
Them are the easy ones. I did one stair way that was wood and circular for 3 stories. Something like 37 steps. Built a bosuns chair to hold me out in space to staple the back side and make the seam as close to the front underside as I could get. Oh and the support for the steps was in the center. Big pain in the ASS.
Okay Daris, if those are the easy ones I'll give them to you for $250 a piece.
I took mom to get her 2nd covid vaccine. Dropped her off at the hospital for it (last time it took almost 2 hours). Went to the post office. Dropped in to see my friend and drop off plumbing parts for his new vanity. Decided to head back out to see if Mom was ready and she called as I was walking to the truck. We got some McDonalds food and went back to friend's house and she held the baby. A package of toys for him came in and she wanted to see which ones he liked. He liked the stick with bells on it but he kept hitting himself in the face with it. He also liked the bracelet with bells but while he was wearing it he kept punching himself in the face with his fist. He got fussy so my friend loaded up Sixteen Tons performed by Geoff Castellucci to calm the baby. They both love that one.
Hung out for a couple hours and then back home where I cooked. Brother had cooked himself a steak but couldn't finish it so he gave me half.
I think Mom has an eye doctor appointment tomorrow but I'm not sure.

That's 250 miles away from me Rusty. The farther north you go in Oregon, the thinner the air gets. I stay away from there because I get dizzy.
I'm staying here on the coast where the air is dense. The best place to keep the brain cells working at maximum efficiency.
I don't think the coastal air would help her. At a certain point, it's not fixable.
Gas went up again. $1.79 BB (before biden) $2.59 now.
$2.99 here.

Gas prices are often (but not always) a sign of how the economy is doing. With so many out of work we had very cheap gas prices. Nobody was driving anywhere. In Lancaster, the rush hour no longer existed. Now people are back on the roads using gas. So yea, the demand goes up and we pay more.
