I got the last of the sheet tin on the side of HER building this AM. Had to set up at the Creston Iowa farmers MKT this afternoon so I didn't get the 2 trim pieces put on. Should have it finished early in the AM. The phone people are gonna be here in morning and run new high speed phone lines into the shed. Hope it works as good as the old gal wants it to. She says I can watch all kinds of movies on this thing, I think I've watched all the Roy Rogers movies I need. Gotta wire the 3 way light switches tomorrow, this will be the first time for that. I got a a good diagram from the middle son, he's an electrician for a huge chicken farm. Then I got to hang rock, tape it, paint etc. I hate finishing rock!!! Was again disappointed in the see hery at flea MKT last weekend. Tonights farmets MKT was OK.

| Gots the rest of the trim on the outside of the shed. Phone guys were here to hook up the old gals real high speed internet thru the phone lines. They can't get it to work. They got it to the top of the hill west of us, but can't get it down the hill. She's been a talking to herself all afternoon. I had to run into town 2 times this afternoon to get parts for the front brakes on the blue van. It seems like my grandson had to do some brake work on his ride, couldn't find the star bits, made the first trip to NAPA and got the star bits. Got home and found out the kid gave me a rotor for a car not a van, result second trip back to town. Didn't have to listen to the old gal a bellyaching all afternoon. Sure made my wore out old ears feel better. |

Some time those,,,,,,,,,,er,,,,,,little mistakes that are made by OTHERS,,,,,,,,are actually a blessing in disguise. NOT very often, but sometimes. I can't get internet out here at the farm cause (they say) there's no more room on the lines. WTH?!?! What kind of an excuse is that?? ------------- "Allis-Express" 19??
