Shelving

Up after not a great night's sleep. It was still hot after the thunder moved on, and my idea of drinking rum and coke when I got home didn't help either. A leisurely breakfast, and then Lorraine and I went to the garage and worked again at the huge task of sorting it all out. It was good to have a day at home to do this.

I built, with Lorraine's help two large metal shelving units from an outfit called Big Dug, like assembling a Meccano set, and took the motley collection of cupboards etc down, and Lorraine and I dragged things about, and Lorraine put things in storage boxes. Now we have a garage full of the new things plus all the old things. But it felt like progress. And I always am pleased with myself when I can do something practical without making a hash of it.

Lunch outside too. All well. 

We decided to watch Forrest Gump this evening, one of Lorraine's pals expressing amazement that we'd not seen it. I had my reservations, but Tom Hanks did an excellent job as always.
