December 21, 2010 AM

I'm late posting this morning.  It's mine and Steve's 24th aniversary.  I often thought we might not make it.
He stayed in bed until 10:00.  He sleeps so much.
Yesterday he and Ronnie dug a hole out by the fish ponds and set the filter into it.  It was messy work, with light rain and it being so cold.
He has spent almost a week working on the recording security system.  I'm wore out with it.  It makes strange beeping sounds when there's motion, which, on our back porch, is always happening.
He's planning to someday put it in the kitchen, but I already know all that beeping will drive me crazy.  Maybe that's his plan.
I bawled him out last evening for doing such a terrible job on the blow-mold nativity set.  It doesn't matter to him, but it matters a whole lot to me.
He put some of the characters out there with no lights in them, and no cords to put lights in.
I went to buy a refrigerator for the Hut.  I got the exact model I had wanted at the Home Depot from a lady in South Knoxville for half price.  It's so cute.  Her husband and son met me at the Weigel's on Summit Hill Drive.  Cops were there pulling so many cars over and giving them tickets.  I don't know how they have room for the cars buying gas.  It's all them low-life black people over there.  Just trash.
I came back by the Dwarf's flea market, and bought Steve a new Ryobi skill saw there for our anniversary.  I also got him a little tool that you roll along and it measures how long something is up to 300 feet.  I gave them to him yesterday.
I got me a recriprocating saw to go with my firestorm battery set of tools.  Those are the most useful tools.
I did some quick feeding last night, then went to work in the Hut for a short while.  It was pretty cold, so I didn't last long.  I need Steve to cut me some panels to go on the front wall, then I can finish it and put the old shelf up for a window sill.  Then I can set things in it to look pretty.
I installed the plexiglass storm window in the rear entry foyer transom window last night.  It looks real good, and it works!  I just don't want to have to pay a lot to keep the house comfortable this winter, when it might get even colder than it already has.
Then bath and bed.  I slept pretty well, but woke early and couldn't go back to sleep, so I started early.
I made biscuits and steak for breakfast.
It's drizzling rain, and it's pretty cold.
Looks like a miserable day.
