26th September 2025
After waking early, Kelli was not in the best of moods, whether she was troubled by the issue of her supplements being discontinued, or not, it was not a good start.
It was down to me to get the dresser ready for collection, a quick bit of polish on the top and it was ready.
However the arranged time came and went, a possible no-show was looming, but she had paid for it, so it didn’t matter much.
I had plenty to do on the second dresser, trying to get the drawers to run smoothly.
I had arranged to meet Henry, the college professor for a coffee at 3.00pm at a cafe in Holland. But he cancelled, because he is having some serious remodelling to his house, and was having a dumpster delivered.
I rode my bike down south shore to a house the Lloyd and Nancy were helping to clear, interestingly, the house is opposite belongs to Brian Walker, the ex CEO of Herman Miller.
I alway wondered who owned that hideous carbuncle, now I know.
I came to view a desk that was being sold at a garage sale on Saturday. These are the kind that we convert into matching side tables, but I wasn’t keen at this time, I really want to clear what is in the garage first.
I rode back as Kelli was trying to fit the handles to the drawers, but found the screws too long.
As I wasn’t meeting Henry I took a trip to Menards instead.
I took the opportunity to buy the metal spikes that get hammered into the ground to fit the fence posts into. I felt this was actually easier than digging a three foot deep hole, buying a ten foot post to fit in it, and then filling it in with concrete. Also there are lots of tree roots in that area, so being able to dig a hole in the first place might have been a challenge.
