Prepare to Repair
May. 28th, 2022 10:10 pmI called Sam today and we agreed that some weekend soon he will come over and help me repair our cedar fence, which is going to require sinking at least two new posts and rebuilding a couple of sections. This is a lot easier with Sam's help and with his excellent powered miter saw.
Gretchen had suggested earlier in the day that I should go to Home Depot and see if I could find leveling feet for the small table on the patio that has lost one. This was a complete failure, but I *was* able to measure the screw and order way too many feet when I got home. And while I was at Home Depot, I picked up more brackets for the fence repair, because they are much, much better than toenailing the way that the fence had originally been assembled.
After I placed the Amazon order something was nagging at me. Something *else* that I had forgotten to order. Oh, yes! Our hanging shower door is becoming increasingly balky, so I had made plans to disassemble it and put it back together, but it struck me that replacing the 25-year-old wheels that it was rolling on would probably be a good idea. I looked for replacement wheels at Home Depot, but found none. (Looks on-line. Apparently, they had them. I just couldn't find them. After having an employee of the store spend 10 minutes looking for chair feet, I didn't really want to send anyone else on a wild goose chase.) Anyway, I have ordered new wheels from Amazon that should be here on Monday.
I have too many things to fix, I think...
