Monday, June 4, 1984

I got the time and mileage check from my last job in the mail today for $60.00. I didn't realize the pay and mileage money would come separately.

The cheapest plumber I found is $32.00 an hour.

I'm still hunting for sixteen-inch ceiling tile.

Sonny stopped by today to tell me that since it's supposed to rain tonight and tomorrow night, he will start my new roof Wednesday. I said I would give him one of Mom's many tables that didn't sell, a lamp and a plant stand for his wife.

I bought primer and paint for the pool rim and muriatic acid to clean the rust off the rim. Muratic acid is added to the pool water anyway, so it won't hurt the water quality. I got rug shampoo and deodorizer for the back bedroom, bath and hall carpeting. I picked up tile for the bathroom where Steve's brother poked holes in the wall. All I need is a new wood baseboard to put around the tub.

I bought a new swim type bra for my bathing suit top, since I will be into pool cleaning this week.

I varnished the nightstand for the third time and stripped, sanded and polyurethaned the dresser.

After dinner I washed dishes, swept the kitchen floor and vacuumed the carpet. At 1AM I called it a day.
