CHAPTER 11. NOVEMBER

Alma's full sized bed rails were delivered and installed to prevent her from falling out of bed in her sleep or when she is mentally in another world and doesn't realize that she's in bed. I rigged a portable bedrail on one side of the foot of the bed with duct tape, and an elastic belt on the other side to hold the foot rail together with the side rails. It will open at the foot of the bed, the side with the elastic belt, just enough for Larry to get in or out of bed to sleep. I hope he doesn't have to pee in the middle of the night and fall trying to climb over the rails.

After work I washed more of my kitchen walls and ceiling, and touched up the paint on the newly washed walls. I washed the top of my frig/freezer. I disconnected my range hood fan switch, because the fan doesn't work, but it tested okay, and I reconnected it. I'll test the motor another day. I caulked my back door window on the inside and caulked several places where the wall paneling had separated at the connections. I added sticky foam insulation around the back door, where there were drafts.

Tat, my new, old mama cat has caught several mice and one of my dogs has tapeworms again.
