| Cardboard Sun Shade |
Much of the day was spent at
home. At 10 a.m. we met with
Window Covering Consultant Brian.
The East sun in the morning is very intense. It heats up that side of the house and I can’t see my
computer screen. Right now I have
cardboard in my windows. The West
sun in the afternoon is so hot and bright in the breakfast nook, that we can
not use that area for an hour or two.
Brian provided some new
suggestions. I did not have any
good ideas about how to cover the huge doors in the Grand Room. There is no room to the right or left
to stack draperies, so he proposed shades attached to the doors. The next phase would be to look at
fabrics and make some choices. Fun
stuff.

| Shrinking Pile |
At 6:30 p.m. it was time for Doc
and I to head out for a romantic Saturday night date. Our first stop was Home Depot to pick up the rolls of
artificial turf which Doc had ordered last week. Our next stop was Lowe’s to return some unused brackets. One penny found at check out.
We stopped at a little café to get
a Mediterranean take out meal.
While Doc waited for the order, I walked the parking lot. One penny found. But of course everyone knows - you
can’t find pennies in the dark!
LOL.
Today’s mail brought my final
paycheck from Cal Poly Pomona with the payoff of my vacation hours. I was quite addicted to my job and very
seldom used any vacation hours.
Now my ‘vacations’ will be represented by Doc’s recliner, the new sofas,
and some of the window coverings.
The Family Room sofas and Doc’s recliner were ordered a few weeks ago and I will order the sofa(s) for the Grand Room just as soon as
that pile of Stuff in the middle of the room is conquered….
Total: 2 Pennies
