21st June 2020
It was Father’s Day over here, and quite surprisingly I had messages from both my boys. Over the years I’ve not always had any wishes at all, mainly because I’ve been able to see them. Anyway it was pleasing to read, and I appreciated them.
I had work to do on a dresser top to get it ready for Kelli to paint it. In between that, I started work on the patio by scarf jointing some of the timber I had. I plan to pre-make the sections prior to assembling in the final position.
Later in the afternoon we had a family dinner at Mom’s house, so the gathering of the clan was expected.
Greer arrived from Grand Rapids waving some cans of beer as my Father’s Day present from her. This was unexpected and fully appreciated, as I opened one up, I needed to get into the right frame of mind for the upcoming event.
I had been volunteered to set up a wireless printer, which is normally relatively simple, but not for me. I spent loads of time trying to get the phone to pair with the printer, and it just didn’t want to do the only thing it needed to do. As the evening was drawing in, I admitted defeat, and decided to put it off to another day.
There is the nightly ritual of watering the plants, pulling the hose through the garage, trying not to get it twisted, and remembering to water everything.
