I slept very poorly last night. Woke at 4 and was awake for another hour plus. Took some Melatonin in hopes I might sleep. Finally did.
We did not get up with alarm to go work out. Too tired. Emily did not move either. We finally got up around 845 and got going.
The coffee filter collapsed and I got grounds in the pot. Same as yesterday. Lovely.
It’s raining today. A lot. I am supposed to put a new railing on the back deck with help? from father in law Hank. He’s 81 and a complete pain in the ass. But that’s later.
We finished up our workout, quickly. Emily is going to Camden with her Mom for her moms haircut. And the time is strict.
So they left. And I figured then that Hank and I could work on the railing as we had planned. But, my FinL Hank did not want to work in the rain since the wood will get wet. I did point out that the railing is outside and will be getting wet. But he can’t allow it. And, btw, I have to let the man have his way in order to keep the peace.
So we waited around till 130, doing nothing, for my plumber to show up. The toilet at Twinnies leaks and there is still explosive air in the water lines on all three camps. And I hope Jim can get this done. We have an Airbnb tenant coming in today.
Jim showed up promptly at 130. We marched through all the items needing fixing. He is unable to help with the air in the lines but will fix the toilet on Friday. Also, he is going to paint the siding and maybe repair it as well. We will see
Jim left. It has stopped raining. Hank still refuses to work on the railing. Why? Don’t know. So we decided to go to his house. He has “things” to do. Other things, not railing repairs.
We are at his house. What is he doing? Playing solitaire on his iPad. What am I doing. I really have nothing to do now.
I need a real vacation.
Got a call from Ed Kadunc. He and his wife are going to one of the film fest showings tonight. Invited us. Show at 615.
I let Emily know, so maybe she could get back from the all day haircut in time to go to the movies. Stranger things have happened.
So Hank and I sat in his house doing nothing all day. Most boring thing I have done.
Emily and Beth got back at 520. I finally had to say let’s get going show starts at 615 or not go. She said she wants to go. We finally got in the car headed to Waterville.
We arrived close to start time, just after 6. Ed and Helena had not arrived yet. Of course, they have passes. The usher made us wait until they decided there was enough room for us latecomers to buy tickets. Turns out the auditorium was only half full.
Tonight’s movie was a weird one from Brazil about a right wing evangelical dystopian society taking over Brazil in the near future. Being from Brazil there was lots of sex in it. Theme being what it was the sex was procreative only. Still entertaining.
After the movie, no happy ending, we went to a cafe nearby and had excellent food for dinner. Homemade bread, brick oven pizza, soup. Just very tasty. We sat till they kicked us out at 10. We were done but sitting was nice to.
We headed home. I am so glad my day ended well after the not so lovely beginning. Thursday is another day.
