Trimmed the weeds in the rest of the back yard this morning. Had to stop when it got too hot.
Going to go out in a little while and start raking.
Got the lower sections of conduit attached. Hadn't done that yet because I didn't feel like moving the crawlspace covers. They don't actually do anything but are required. They would do something if the cables were in any position where they could move. Then they keep the covering from abrading against the house. In this case, they're just a transition to the junction box and from there more conduit to the entry panel. Mostly it just looks nicer.
Got the thresholds installed.
With a heavy heart, I painted over the mural in daughter's room. Several real estate agents have told me a house won't sell with a mural. I don't really believe them. I think they are trained that way and never question it. The real issue is that some murals are controversial. Instead of dealing with any controversy, they just avoid showing houses that have any murals. In Europe, murals increase the value of the home. In 'Murca, houses basically have to be cookie cutter rubber stamp look like everything else.
Now I have to touch up some spots where white paint smeared or dripped on black.
I am so sick of painting.
Loaded the trash receptacle and set it out, emailed the trash company for an extra pickup. Got an auto-response but they have not emailed an expected pickup schedule. I can use the smaller trash cans in the back yard for now.
Have to go to an inservice at work tomorrow morning. So it would be unlikely I could get one of the buyers here tomorrow, any way. So Fri it will be. Get the yard in order, organize the workshop and I'm about ready. Sweep and mop one more time. Spray a lot of odor eliminator around.
I have stopped smoking in the house as of today. Running the swamp cooler a lot to air the place out. Just as well. Means I'll smoke less.
Need to go to the store. Not much food in the house. Clean out the fridge and freezer tomorrow.
