Saturday

Windy, chilly, cloudy, overcast today. Then it started to rain. Forry had gone out this morning and made sure that the temporary splice of the 50 amp cables was well-covered with a plastic bag. We don't often bring in the little shade over the front door like we do the awning, but even the little shade was bouncing pretty good in the wind, so it came in as well.

We had a nice visit via Facebook Messenger with Granddaughter Havela at college in Hesston this morning, then a nice long phone call with Daughter MM this afternoon as well as a brief chat with Son-in-law Todd. It's good to touch bases with family.

I had been waiting for a warm day to wash the sheets, but according to the weather forecast, that's not going to happen for a week or so, so I went ahead and did it. The space between our bed and the wall on the outside wall is so tight, it takes a bit of acrobatics to get the fitted bottom sheet on, so sometimes I procrastinate...

I took another attempt at making beef barley soup this afternoon and I think this time, I got it. Adding some beef bouillon and some mushrooms made a big difference! It was a hearty supper for a chilly nasty day.
