Our industrious day:

1. breakfast at the diner

2. fixing the garage door 1/2. The "spool" at one end had gone out of sync with its mate, causing the door to have a 1" or so gap at one end when it was "closed". Rich used vice grips with a chain jaw to twist the spool to get it back in sync.

3. trip to Lowes for parts, new bird feeder, and 1 roll of turf grass

4. setting up new bird feeder – fine wire mesh should hold small seed and discourage(?) woodrats from gnawing.

5. fixing the garage door, 2/2. While working on the first part, we realized that the weather stripping was old and tearing. New weather stripping installed. arms hurt.

6. installing a new lawn for the cats
   • buy turf
   • remove old, dead grass
   • break up dirt
   • wet down, mix, create mud!
   • place new turf
   • cover

   The kitties will not be happy to be unable to sit in their lawn for a few days.

7. Time for a nap!
