Friday Morning

Well Thursday was another work day that started very early for me as I had trouble sleeping with Nancy in her snore mode. The other bedrooms were cluttered with our belonging from the master bedroom so I was up and on the computer by 4:30 in the AM. I did sleep soundly for about 5 hours or so thus I did feel fine. The floor installer finished up what I had contracted with their company but I decided to go ahead and do the other two small bedrooms while I was doing this major project plus the carpet was showing some age and didn't look that great against the new flooring. I will order more flooring and underlayment as well as the 3/4 round to finish off the project hopefully sometime next week.

I started the day with a cup of hot tea laced with some turmeric while I posted this ramble. The temps had dropped considerably over night and with the new flooring being vinyl it made for even cooler temps in the house. I've learned the house will be much cooler with the carpet gone as the terrazzo floors were cold to touch. I did my quiet time with my Creator giving thanks for all of the blessing I've been afforded and then lifted up those I know who need some special considerations by name to the "great healer". I haven't any new updates on Paw Paw but the girls are there especially Josie and Dee who check on him daily. Pat and I are quite some distance away so that puts the biggest burden on them and I'm eternally grateful for all their extra work.

I refurbished the commode with a new rubber flange and rubber washers between the tank and bowl, did some touch up painting in the kitchen, painted the closets and reinstalled the doors, moved the fridge out into the garage as the installers were finishing up behind it, whew. What a work day and I was whupped by day's end. Neighbor Carol came down down for a gander then invited us up to share a meal of Shepard's Pie around 6'ish. Then both Dan and Carol came down for a visit until nearly 8 when it was time for a hot shower. We really like the richness of the wood faux flooring and of course that will change all of the paint colors and decor for the whole house. Nancy was getting Carol's opinion on those issues as she has an eye for decorating. She at least was in my corner on some changes to be made with paint.

Well after a hot shower it wasn't long until I was in the horizontal lab mode after watching some of the Fox Cable News. President Trump has the nation at heart in his decisions and is giving the liberals "what for" in their fake news and often biased reporting. The major media news outlets are so biased and anti-Trump it's down right criminal. America has spoken in his win except for two welfare states such as Calif. and N.Y. that we are no longer a P.C. nation and we want our culture and values back to before the secular progressives took control in D.C. We want our nation to be strong against those who chant"death to America", we want jobs back, an education system that does not reward incompetent educators and turns our students that are promoted socially, we want strong immigration vetting and closed borders except for those coming here legally and we want the sanctity of life protected for the innocent and unborn and most of all we want to drain the swamp of the corruption promulgated with the Clinton's and Obama's. I want America to be great again and Trump is the only one not beholding to lobbyist, politicians and special interests, LATER
