Tired!

Posted by Bev Darby, Rock n Spheres on 21st Feb 2018

We got home later than usual on Monday.  The winds were terrific and pulling the trailer made it a very slow go.  despite that, we hit rain and traffic was unusually heavy being it was a 3 day weekend.  We alternated driving every hour and both had tension headaches when we arrived.

Yesterday I spent the day backing up all the Xmas decorations.  A long overdue task!  It did take the entire day to clean, box and store it all.

Today was spent unloading the back of the pickup truck.  I then did the rounds looking for a less expensive drop saw for cutting my soft materials.  In the end, I ordered it online.  bummer.  The shipping is outrageous and it won't even be delivered to the door.  

This afternoon I got the great idea that I could dump the dirty oil from the 18" saw that needs cleaning into the saw with the ever clean system.  I first drew off 8 gallons of clean oil from the 24".  I vacuumed up about 5 gallons of dirty oil out of the 18" and dumped it into the 24.  It turns out to have been a very bad idea.  Every 20 minutes I had to clean out the canister of the ever clean.  I will need to continue to do that tomorrow.  

So all I have left to do is empty the inside of the pickup and tackle the trailer.  I can't wait to finish so I can start sphering again.  Ah what to start on first.....

Thanks for reading.
