The Week Is Done

I haven't posted a blog lately. I've been a little busy. Nuria and I had a lot of limbs and leaves to clean out of the yard from the previously mentioned tree-cutting. The limbs had to be cut to fit trash containers. That job took five days plus two 45-gallon trash receptacles plus 15 44-gallon 7-ply construction waste bags. 

The bathroom ceiling was damaged by water from a roof leak. I repaired the damaged plaster with joint compound and then painted the ceiling. The dining room ceiling was also damaged by water from a roof leak. I repaired the damage with joint compound and then painted that portion of the ceiling. I think I've got the roof leaks fixed but I'll know for sure when the next hurricane comes through town.

So the ceiling repairs are done and I've just finished dinner. I'm listening to some mellow jazz music, which Nuria and I do every evening at dinner and sometimes afterward. The music tonight is called "Monday Jazz ❤️ Smooth Jazz Music for Starting Your Week On A High Note" and it's on YouTube here.*

Tomorrow is election day, but it's an off-year election—I think that's what they call it. It's one of those elections where you don't know anyone on the ballot. Somebody is running for dogcatcher. Somebody else is running for school board. I don't know any of them, and I don't have dogs or kids.

*Note: On Tuesday, the day after I posted this blog, the link to the music video now displays the message:  "This Live Stream Recording Is Not Available." Maybe the video is only available on Mondays? I don't know.

Good morning!

We know you've been very busy. To be the owner of a property means a lot of work to do. You need both need a break.

It's very sweet to hear about what you do during your spare time. Listen to the music is relaxing, specially this kind of jazz, I love it.

What can I say about politic? Boring, tired, annoying! I hope this will be over soon.

Thank you for sharing this kind of music. I really enjoyed it.

Greetings

I've missed your posts and thought perhaps you were travelling.

Good for you guys that you've finished that memorable tree !! I don't think you'll be forgetting it soon as it's caused you a great deal of work. It's amazing one tree can do all of that.

Love the music --- voting day was a letdown to many as none of my candidates won !! According to FB others feel the same way ! Wonder if they've figured out how to manipulate these small local elections to go blue ??

I've gotten a carpet of leaves surrounding my place but so thankful for powerful blowers!!

Take care and thanks for catching us up !!

Best, LL
