It was 2 below zero this morning. We called off the walk and when Joan got the text sent back, "Amen to that!! I don't think mankind was made to live in this climate!" We it wasn't THAT bad only -20 windchill. I left for the Berean office early and was the first to arrive. That doesn't happen very often. We were short of help today because of the extreme cold. No readers came in so I took that job while Skip worked on the computer. Marvin brought in the first half of the brand new rack for the advanced Bible studies, then Vonnie helped to clean off the table so Marvin could start putting it together.
As I was reading I didn't take very many pictures but below are a few of our morning.
Below is a short video.
Anna sent a message that she got the first part of the patching done of the hole in the bathroom wall. Once it dries she can sand it then touch up paint. We can't find replacement light bulbs for the 2 broken ones of the light fixture over the sink so may need to buy 4 so they can match.
She also told me the smell is still really bad. When I got home the Fabreeze I ordered yesterday on Amazon had just arrived so I took a can up to the apartment and sprayed all of the bedding, rugs, shower curtain, inside the closets and the rug. I'll check tomorrow and if it still stinks will bring another can up. I ordered 6 and it may take all 6 to get the apartment useable soon. About then the lady that had her wedding at the barn right after Christmas asked if we had found a santa purse in the barn. She said it was left in the cabinet under the television. I took the golf cart over and sure enough it was exactly where she told me it would be.
She is picking it up tomorrow and said I made a 9 year old girl very happy! Mom called about then so I took the left over dessert over for mom and Karin. Mom wanted to hear all about what happened with the apartment. When I got back to the house Mark had a package delivered from Amazon with the new tools he ordered which will help him build the bunk beds. He brought in a couple of 2 x 4s to practice.
Both worked well. Below he is trying them out for the first time.
Now that he has the tools of the trade to build triple bunk beds I asked him if he would like to go in the business of building them to sell. He just didn't seem to be too interested in that.
It is not going to be quite as cold tomorrow as we have some cloud cover only supposed to get down to 2 degrees instead of -2. We will keep the wood burner burning.
