1 October 2018, A day from Mark’s past

Today’s Notes
General: Finally got to sleep around 02:00 this morning. Made coffee for Kathy and I and watched Today on NBC with her.  (She loves that show.)  Went back down and slept for a little while before getting out of the house and getting ready for our trip.   When I got back from getting a haircut I had a bagel and cream cheese then took another nap.   When I got up I reassembled the last two of my 18AH AGM portable battery cases.  (I had cannibalized them earlier this year to make long run UPS units for my mother’s security system.

Accomplishments: Reconnected my mother’s tablet to her wireless Internet and assembled rechargeable batteries for a UPS we are bringing on our trip in case the power fails.
Purchases:SLA Batteries and a lantern.
Tomorrow: Pack our bags and prepare the house for vacancy, which I didn’t get done today.
Future: Drive to Chicago for a High School reunion.
Injuries: Shoulder pain unbearable at times even when taking Advil.
Feelings: I was very frustrated trying to teach my mother how to originate an E-Mail using a contact from her Tablet today.
