Floor Installment I

     About a year ago, the project began by tearing out the farm's kitchen floor(s).  Farm work moved the project to the back burner.  This spring's weather prompted a return to the project.  Step one: lay some ceramic tile for the kitchen wood burner.


    Then came the underlayment.  All six 4X8 sheets had to be cut and fitted.




     Presently, the 1X3 vinyl tiles are going in.   





      I’m hoping to be done in time for the Fourth of July holiday.  Progress is severely impeded by the “Big 3” that control my life:   Family, doctor appointments, and singing. 
     The quartet did a job for a father-son celebration of Father’s Day at the local memory care place.  At 10 a.m., the old duffers were enjoying a Coors Light with their donuts.  The activity director called it beer and breakfast.  We dubbed it the three B’s, breakfast, beer, and barbershop.
      I called on the ophthalmologist this Tuesday past.  She is ready to turn me over to the surgeon to see if my cockeye can be corrected by “adjusting” muscles.  Sounds like a knife to me.  She says we have the myasthenia in control.
      I reach my three-score-and-ten this Father’s Day.  In celebration, we took a trip to a mountain cabin with number two daughter, son-in-law and grandchildren.  Great fun!  To complete the celebration, we had the quartet over for supper Saturday night.
     Who wants to work on a floor when he can be doing all that?
