Ron Freaks Out

First the good news: it poured for most of yesterday.

Ron freaked out about “his” room, insisting that he needed to do more work before we could have photos taken.

In a way, he has a point. I ordered another set of curtains for the bedroom and a proper king size spread. Probably a good idea to clean the front door, too, and re-hang the bifold doors in the bedrooms.

We had to groom and scrub Lizzie’s backside. It was a horrible mess, but she was her usual forbearant self.

The electrician is here and the Mac repair person picked up Ron’s computer, which we finally decided needs a new battery. He put in an old still good one and charged a reasonable price for the part and his time.

Later:

Very pleased with the ceiling fan and light. Had a small dispute with the company owner due to a miscommunication but we worked it out. I actually overpaid him a little but that’s a different story for another post, maybe.

Mary called to ask me to take down comments I made about one of the Select Board candidates. I was bloody mad but did it out of respect for Mary. Lost some respect for our candidate; I can’t abide cowardice.

Picked up a set of solid wood bifold doors at the resale store in Falmouth for an unbelievable $20.

A handyman will be here tomorrow morning to check out what needs to be done.

Ron took down the crook that I’d asked him to install for a hanging plant.

After listening to him talk about buying them for hours on hours, I found shelf brackets in the attic for Ron’s closet project. I picked up D batteries for the stud finder.

Did more yard cleanup, more than I normally would before official Fall but wanted the property to look neater.
