Monday

  Early this morning, Jerry Binger drove to the Lowes store where we picked up the floor laminate, 17 boxes, sure hope that is enough, as it took quite a while to arrive.  Now just need the time to lay it, probably be Thursday before that happens.
  Then it was more re-assembly, put up the new hall light fixture and put the new passage set on the bathroom door.  It turned out the door fit was so close that the paint on the door and jamb made it too tight and I had to recess the hinges to make it work.  Good thing I have a set of wood chisels. 
  Went back to the m'home for lunch and just as we were finishing up, Norm &; Lucie Dufresne showed up for a visit.  Turns out they were in Yuma and are now in Mesa, not too far from here.  Gave them a tour of the park and showed them our place.  The park they are staying in has about 3,000 sites and the monthly rent is about 3 times what we pay here.  It is very nice and they seem to be settling in fine, although they have just been there over a week.  Had a nice visit with them and they are coming back on Thursday, Norm offered to help me put in the laminate and Lucie will hang out with Marg around the pool.   Nice to see them, they seem to be enjoying their time in the Valley of the Sun.
  After we went back to Lowes where we bought the stuff to paint the kitchen cupboards.  Marg found the colour she liked and they had special rollers for doing this.  I also picked up some Roundup and a bug spray.  We have some mini ants on the patio at the unit and this stuff is supposed to either keep them away or kill them, so I sprayed a line along the back.  Also sprayed all the weeds around the lot.  That seems to be the only thing that grows on this soil and the park sprays most of them, except out back around the buildings. 
  Supper was bbq and then it was off to poker for me.  Not sure how I made out, but Marg said I need to take some money out of my bag as I couldn't fit another nickel in it.  Marg did the laundry and while it wasn't as much fun, she got a lot of satisfaction knowing it was done.
