Today was my father's birthday. He would have been 97 if he had lived. He passed away 10 years ago. Doesn't seem that long.
I typed up a long blog last night but for some reason, it didn't post. I vented about what an awful day I had Friday. The payroll didn't post through to the bank and there were a lot of unhappy employees.
Today was much better. Don came down and helped me install the two doors in the guestroom. One is the closet door and the other is the door to the room. It had cleaned up the hinges and put them on but one set was backwards. Don changed them and we both carried the doors upstairs. He put them on there hinges. One of the pins was difficult to get in but we figured out how to get it in. The closet door is a little snug where the latch is. I may just be able to sand the paint off the latch and it will fit. I still have to clean up the door knobs and plates that go behind the doornobs.
We had some lunch and then took the airconditioners to the basement. That went well, too. I have to wrap them with plastic bags so the plaster dust doesn't get all over them but that's two projects that are more or less completed.
Danny was happy to see Don. He likes to lay on his lap. He used to lay on Ted's lap. Maybe he missed laying in Ted's lap. He likes to lay in my brother Rick's lap, too. When they are around, Danny seems to prefer laying in there laps rather than mine. But the minute I stand, he is ready to follow me.

Posted by tedkarol at November 10, 2007 10:17 PMToday is my birthday too! We went to Ikea which opened last month - the first one in Florida. They have some neat things. There are 1000 parking spaces at the store and they are still using a shuttle bus to and from the Bank Atlantic Center because the parking lot is so full. We took the shuttle. People are coming from all over to the store.
Sorry to hear you had an awful day on Friday but a better day on Saturday. I'm sure those days will become fewer as time goes by.
It just takes time to get into the routines (even the non normal ones).
You also have some BEAUTFUL roses there. You'll have to take a picture of that tree when it turns full color.
