kevin_standleeWe have several tasks here (some related to mounting the studio lights, some not) for which we needed small bits of hardware like nuts, bolts, a face plate for that outlet in the ceiling, and so forth. So it was off to Big R (which is a hardware store as well as a ranch and home supply store) to look through the bins of nuts and bolts. It's a good thing that Big R is not that far away, because it took three separate trips, the last of which was to exchange three fifty-cent nuts for three others that looked almost alike and turned out to have been stored in the wrong bin. In any event, we got what we needed, and several home projects have progressed another step.
Meanwhile, the temperature has dropped just enough to justify restarting the fireplace this afternoon. The morning, I cleaned the fireplace glass, shoveled ash, and vacuumed the area, just in time to spent time getting it restarted while Lisa worked on the small repairs. The current forecast suggests a chance of snow on Tuesday.
