I slept in this morning, so I didn’t get to C&C’s until almost 10:00. Charles had already done some work, but Laura hadn’t arrived yet, so the workday was not yet in full swing. Even with a coffee break and then one for lunch, we got a lot of work done, finishing a whole 16′ wide section of floor. C&C and will likely start building walls this week.
The weather was the opposite of yesterday, very hot with a grueling sun. I came in and started not only the genny but the AC!!!
I had a project of my own to do this afternoon. The pipe strap holding up the exhaust on the genny had rusted through and snapped from the vibration of the genny running.
While putting some stuff away in C&C’s shop, I noticed a roll of the stuff on a workbench and asked Caroline for a 1′ section of it. When I got home, I used WD-40 to soak the bolt that held the original strap and had no trouble removing it a mere 10 minutes later. It was then a matter of five minutes to resecure the exhaust pipe.
It’s now almost 6:00 and I’m just about ready to crash for the evening. I’m glad I got a weekend outside as I am expected to be at my desk 8:00 to 4:00 each day for the rest of the month as I am covering for someone. We are expected to get good weather all week (FINALLY) so I will be sneaking away to get more work done on my pile of laundry. I won’t let it win! đ
