I had told my parents before they came down that I would be in and out of the house most of today. First, I had Bible study in the morning where we began a study of Psalms that I really enjoyed. Second, I was in charge of a CCW luncheon get together with Robbi that was scheduled for this afternoon at McAlister's. The food was nice, but I especially liked the fellowship with the group.
In between all of the church meetings that I had today, Grandpa and I were able to finish a few projects around the house. First, we replaced all of the outside covers for the electrical boxes. Three of them were broken and according to the research that I had done none of them were up to code. I was glad for the informational video from Lowe's which told us exactly how to replace them. The first one was a little bit difficult, especially since the project was new to us. Thankfully, two of the others were a breeze with only one giving us a headache. Even with the issues, we finished one in between Bible Study and McAlister's and the other three were completed in thirty-one minutes all before 3:30 this afternoon.
The second project was a little bit harder. I needed the sink drain in my bathroom replaced as the ring around it was completely corroded. It was hard to take out and Grandpa had to spend almost an hour under the cabinet, but eventually we had a nice new looking drain. I was extremely happy not only because it looked a lot better, but also because it was done just in time as the drain had completed fallen apart.
Even with all of the projects and meetings, Grandpa and I were completely finished by the time that Doug got home from work and started dinner. That was a nice feeling and gave us plenty of time to play Oh Hell. The only negative on the day was the four trips that I had to make to Lowe's because I bought the wrong items twice.
