Sunday, January 17, 2010

It was a dark and rainy day. I woke at 5:30, took my medicine and went back to bed. I only slept a half hour when I woke again. It was still dark outside. I turned on the light, made some coffee and got back in bed to read for awhile until the heat came up.

I took Danny out for his walk. I use his coat as a rain coat. If it’s over 40 degrees, I don’t put his coat on him unless it’s raining. He didn’t go far. He walked around the back yard. There is an extension on my shed. The door is falling apart. It looks like a home made door. There is what looks like poles to a portable gazebo in there with leaves covering the floor. I was going to take them to the dump but I haven’t got moved in yet so they may give me a hard time with NJ auto tags and drivers license. I can fix the door when I get my tools down here. In the meantime, a critter must have gotten in there because Danny barked and lunged for the door aggressively. This part of the shed does not open into the large part. It looks like a place where I can store rakes and other tools. I did bring down the leaf blower but the weather has not co-operated for me to get the job done. I had to pull Danny away because I have no idea what kind of critter may be in there. Could be a mouse or a mole then again could be a raccoon.

When driving to church, I saw the fire company rescue squad at the public boat ramp. I wondered what was going on. As I rounded the curve toward the marina, I saw the rescue workers had a sled type rescue thing out on the ice and they were being cautious. Someone or something must have fallen through the ice. I can’t imagine anyone being on the ice in the rain. It could have been a dog or deer. Then again, it could have been some drunk. Maybe Ed will know what happened.

Everyone welcomed me back to church. I stayed afterward for choir practice. We had some tricky hymns with alto, soprano, tenor and base singing different parts. Of course they were ones I had never heard of before and we had to sing with out accompaniment because we didn’t have a piano player or organist. It went pretty well in spite of not having the accompaniment.

I took Danny out in the yard again and he headed straight for the back of the shed. I steered him in another direction and back into the house. I was surprised he wanted to go out in the rain but I guess his curiosity of what was in the shed got the better of him. He did the same thing at 4pm and will probably do the same tonight.

I had some dinner and talked to Ted’s mother. I am about to find out what movie is online so I can watch from the laptop. I didn’t get any movies at the library yesterday. I got here too late. Fancast have movies online for free so I’m going to sit back and enjoy.
