Tuesday, October 24, 2023 – Busy Day, Full of Energy!

Hi Sweetie!
Set the alarm to get an early start on the day, had a busy day planned. After chores and breakfast, I was raring to go before 9:00, starting with the biggest job, washing the outside of the trailer. The roof itself took over an hour and a half, what with the awning and slide-topper and hay box. Before coming down I let down the pressure washer and the grease gun, to finish the job I left when I changed the oil in the truck the other day. I did the rest of the exterior of the trailer, including the underside of the awning, then put some silver tape on the front end of the trailer. I've sealed that front aluminum panel six different ways, and the adhesive never stays, so now I've just put some silver duct tape on it, the good stuff with the backing, and I'm hoping that will keep the panel in the frame the way it's supposed to be. Not really counting on it, though. Then I pressure washed the water barrel in the truck, it's gotten full of algae lately. I left it dry for now, I'll fill it when I need it, that way it will stay clean until then. I pressure washed the tires on the trailer and truck, got a lot of grease off one trailer tire that was overflowing with grease since my last brake job. By then I was too tired to worry about doing the last couple of grease fittings, so I postponed that until tomorrow. Swept off the porch carpet, put all the tools and furniture back, finally wrapping up at 4:30, having only taken two short breaks all day. Feeling like my energy was well spent today, and happily, I'm physically tired, so I'm hoping to go to bed early and still get a full night sleep. Watched an old James Stewart movie with dinner, heading soon to shower and bed. I love busy and demanding days like this! And I STILL feel twenty years younger with my shoulder in a much better place. Still a few kinks to work out, but I have a massage scheduled for tomorrow, I'm hoping between the labor and the massage, I'll feel even better later in the week! Good night, baby! Love you!
