It was chilly but not that cold Wednesday morning. I think
it was because the winds had died down.
So my morning walk was refreshing, for a change.
I went to the Time Out for lunch, so I could go to the
antique store afterwards. There I bought a hanging kitchen light from the
1950’s that I thought would be perfect in my house (it was built in the early
‘50s, after all). From there I went to the Ford Dealer to check out a car, but
they didn’t have one on the lot.
My afternoon walk was more challenging as the wind had
picked up. It was blowing from the east at around 15 MPH.
Finally, it was 5:00 p.m. and I headed home. I had to take
the turns and curves carefully so my light fixture didn’t break. I got home and
treated the cats. Then I went out, cut off a short length of chain, hung it on
one of Jake’s bike hooks, found an “S” hook and hung up the light fixture. It
will be a while until I can put my plan into action! But, here’s what it looks
like…
I changed clothes and started the Wednesday night wash. Then
I went in and watched the news. When the news shows were over, I did two
things: 1.) I measured the walls and the soffits in the kitchen. 2.) I went up
into the attic to try and determine if the kitchen ceiling is drywall or lath
and plaster. I couldn’t figure it out by feel.
Back downstairs and washing my hands and arms (to make sure
all the insulation was off), I warmed up dinner. I ate the last smoked sausage
section, the last of the radish salad and some more of the corn pudding. I have
officially decided I am not all that into corn pudding.
After supper, I watched a taped movie, “Death proof.” This
was Tarantino’s homage to B-Grade, slasher-type movies (I can’t remember what
you call them). What’s interesting is that Jake, Carla and I saw this in the theater
when it first came out.
When it was over, I went to bed.
