11/17/14 Worked our Fingers to the Bones

Or, Worked Until we Can Hardly Move!

We didn't mean to work that hard; it just happened.

Glen started by making a trip to Dr. Ike's--think hometown Home Depot...to get a replacement faucet.  After the dripping faucet was replaced, Glen started the power washer.  

There were mesquite beans in piles on the concrete floor, staining the floor a camo of black and brown with a little dirt mixed in.  Glen started the removal process.

I started in the kitchen area, removing the stored furniture with Glen's assistance.  The goal, get to the washer and dryer.

It was obvious that serious cleaning needed to be done in there.  The area is not sealed tight, therefore lots of dust accumulation.  It was after lunch before the first load made it to the washer.

The refrigerator is cooling; the stove works.  Both the washer and dryer works.  All is well and ready for the winter.

Glen power-washed all of the concrete surfaces except for the pad where the motor home is parked.  That will be another day's work.  

We visited with Glenda and Milton, neighbors we didn't see yesterday.  Another neighbor called late in the afternoon to say they had a bag of fresh limes/lemons for us.  

That's is for today: a report of our work.  Isn't that exciting!  More of the same for tomorrow.
