Lots of rain overnight and strong winds blew it into the cottage verandah up to the wall. Also blew cover off Paul’s circular saw so it got soaked and blew the Construction Site warning sign off the wall of the back porch. Dean did more plumbing today, got the little 25 litre HWC plumbed in in the corner of the kitchen. I am thrilled at how our conception of the changes is turning out so well.
Karola feeling under the weather again this morning – she’s still having problems with her newly cateracted eyes, especially the left “reading” eye. Plus two big teeth actions – prep for two crowns and a big filling next month. And the ongoing inherited hearing loss and the fiddlyness of hearing aids. It’s amazing she is so cheerful, wonderful surroundings are only so much compensation. So I gave karola another RAT just to be sure. The first one didn’t work, no lines on the sensor at all – I wonder how often that happens – but the second one was unambiguous, negative.
