Happy post-Rapture, for those of you who celebrated….although I am guessing if you did celebrate the Rapture, you probably have better things to do than sit around on a Saturday night reading my blog.
This week was a rather interesting one, as it was fairly busy at work. I ended up covering a couple of events in the late afternoon/early evening.
But if I’ve been busy at work, my Mom (as regular readers of this blog should be aware by now) continues to remain busy, working on projects around the house. This week, she decided to tackle the workshop in the basement, specifically that section that still remains dedicated as a workshop, as opposed to the section that has become an addition to my “home office.” She tore down some of the old shelving and re-arranged the set-up of the workshop, and then cleaned up the mess.
“It’s my therapy,” she says.
The plan was that my Mom and I would get up early, take a load to the dump, continue on to ReuseApalooZaha in Mt. Elgin and to Delhi, then come back to Ingersoll for groceries. Well, Mom and I had everything packed up by 8 a.m. and were on the road.
And within about five minutes or so, we knew we had to make some changes to our plans. I’m not sure how many of you were out on the roads in Oxford County this morning but we were going through some of the worst fog I have ever seen in all my years.
To quote a famous movie, “the fog is getting thicker…and Leon is getting LARGER!” (Anyone who gets that reference, tell me on Facebook Messenger.)
While we knew what had to go to the dump and get groceries, everything else was a “Nice to do,” not a need to do.
By the time we got home it was sunny and bright out in town, but we weren’t sure what it would have been like out on the open roads. We decided to leave anything else for another day and get some work done around the house. I have to say that our workshop looks great now, very clean and tidy and a lot more open than it had been.
As always, if you want to discuss anything covered above (or below), chat me up on Facebook Messenger – either by text or voice message – or via email.
