I’ve spent the day hammering, sawing, and measuring to put the finishing touches on our attic flooring. It’s been a bigger job than I expected, but I’m 95% done now. One more floor panel needs to be measured and cut and it will be a done deal.
I spent an hour this morning repairing a neighbor’s cut cable TV line so he could watch football this weekend. I hate to see a Wolfpack fan denied their ability to watch the game, so I pitched in to help. It’s fun to help neighbors. Good way to get to know them.
The neighborhood rocks. It’s now in a political sign arms race. And it’s friendly, too. Kelly was outside with Hallie and spoke to about five separate neighbors in that time. Our next-door neighbor told us that in the three months we’ve been here, they’ve already interacted with us more than the previous owners who lived here for six years.
Tomorrow, I hope to nail the final nails in the flooring project. Then I will do some computer geek stuff before heading over to a party at my former coworker’s house. Should be nice seeing all the old crew.
Other than the crushing defeat to the Tar Heels by the Wolfpack today, it was a pretty good day.
We put up an Erskine Bowles sign (much to the chagrin of our neighbors, I’m sure). We got it after doing a bit of phone banking for them. Trey went to Volunteer at the Kerry headquarters yeseterday, they didn’t have any lawn signs left. 🙁
