An
evening off.
In need of much more alone time, creative time.
There was a NEAC meeting I ought to have gone to, but just couldn't
force myself to.
Followed
the fire department to work.
Three big trucks with sirens blazing, plus the fire chief's car. One
block away, they slowed, the sirens stopped, the chief made a u-turn,
one truck turned left, one turned right, and the last drove calmly up
to the front door.
Apparently there
had been a demonstration of the alarm system that got just a little
too realistic.

OTENA
general meeting and trustees election
Encouraged attendance at blockwatch meetings to counter the increased
crime of late. Kathy believes a lot of it is due to changed police priorities
from the Iraq war and OSU campus problems.

Removed
the shed from the back yard.
I had put it off for a number of years, although there were many reasons
to remove it and none to keep it. It was ugly, metal, a poor size for
anything, took up a lot of room (and even some precious sun, in a garden
with very little but shade). It was used to store junk.
Whenever I got
stuck, I just tried a different corner and kept on removing screws.
Eventually everything came down. The sheet metal I piled on the hammock
stand, as the trash can(s) were too full of the junk from inside the
shed to fill any further.

Removed
the junk from the shed in the back yard.
Junk really doesn't need to be stored more than three years.

Missed
the trustees meeting --
Newspaper work ran too late.
Council
of Historic Neighborhoods brochure
Did manage to meet with the brochure committee at Al & Allan's house
and see the progress -- it is on the tour, so they are quickly quickly
getting things presentable. They had to leave to make it to Lowe's and
pick out cabinetry.
