Chimney! Attic! Vacuum! MPE! 1.5.26
Came in fourth place last week.
OYB!
Foggy morning in our neighborhood.
Great weather. Nice and cool.
I’m updating my background check with the North American Mission Board.
Vocabulario.
Indeed.
Ordered groceries.
EspaƱol!
I bought some new rubber gloves to do wet work in.
I heard back from my gutter guy. Apparently, they’re coming some time on Thursday.
Got back to work this morning. Got all the tools out, took off the tacked-on board and cut the replacement. Everly helped me draw the lines with the T-square and hold boards while I cut them.
The hardest job was getting up into the attic. I had to crawl on the ends of 2×4’s through piles of insulation. Finally got to the hole and filled it with expanding foam. Hopefully, the squirrels won’t eat through it.
Looks better.
The repairs I’ve done in the past seem to have worked.
I filled the gaps between the boards with an expanding foam called, “Great Stuff.”
After it dries, you can cut the extra off.
Then I painted it brown. I gave the boards a second coat as well.
Last part of the job is clean up.
The boards and most of the tools go back downstairs.
Heard back from Scott Deter about J’s health insurance.
Coming up and down the ladder into the attic leaves a mess. Had to vacuum the house.
Took the grandgirls to Sweet Basil for some Thai food. I’m wearing my Christmas present from Ashley. Beauty!
Penelope loved her coconut soup.
Miles came to get them.
Cleaned the vacuum.
Crazy for the Azaleas to bloom in the winter. Just a few blooms, but still!
Ordered a new light bulb for one of my desk lamps.
Pretty evenly matched this week.
Watered my downstairs plants.
