Busy day

Whew, a busy one today. I finally got started with the wall board in the bedroom. I put up the top row across one of the long walls. Well, I had some help. Brian helped be put the bigger boards in place. Those suckers are heavy. But it looks good so far. I will have to apply the "mud" liberally to get it to look good. But the goal right now is to get all the wall board up so it will add to the insulating properties of the walls. Then I will start on some of the bathroom work. I have to get to final inspection by July, when the building permit expires. The details can wait.

So I also helped out with some computer problems today at the local Jewish Federation, where Ellyn is a member of the board and several of our friends work. They just had some minor problems and questions. I also helped Peter out with getting his garage/studio ready for insulating. I think all the wiring is finally done. Next will be putting the connectors on and "ringing" all the lines out.

I finally got some more of my blood pressure medicine today, although even without it, my pressure tested good the other day. Anyway, through a series of unfortunate events, my prescription refill did not come in time so I had to get the Doctor to get me a temporary supply.

We did not get to WW tonight, as we planned, partly because Ellyn got home late and partly because of the bad weather. We are supposed to get 4-6 inches of snow. Will I finally get to try my new snowthrower?
