3/29/13 (Friday) - Weather: Normal
feel like 84 degree
We got up very early this morning around 8:00 a.m. We have
elbow macaroni with ham for breakfast again (this was left over from
yesterday). We started to work on our 18 L x 8 W
x 8 H shed. We are building it for storage of our tools and misc. We continued leveling the
foundation, but it got too hot. So we started screwing the four 18 feet floor joist together under the shade. We feel tired and hungry around 11:00 a.m. .We have a sandwich for
lunch. After we finish eating we both felt sleep, and take a short nap.
But it
got too hot, Tom woke up and we put extra cover on top of our trailer bed
camper. I slept until 1:00 p.m. The wind
blew so hard it crack my plastic bowl that I just filled with water for hand washing when it fell to the ground while we were cutting
the 2x4x18 wood. Next we went back and level
the foundation again, since the sun went down a little around 5:00
p.m.. This time we had it all done. Tom started digging the ground to put in the concrete blocks foundation. I was moving the 2x4x92” from the truck. We need 15 pieces of 2x4x92” for now, so I put it
very close to the chop saw. The rest of
the woods I put them in a different pile. After that we the 5 sheets T&G from
the truck on the ground.
We both took a shower. I told Tom I was too
tired to cook, and we need to buy drinking water for our 5
gallon container, also butter. We found a Chinese restaurant named Phoenix
Village (2750 W. Valencia). Their buffet price for lunch
was $7.95 Mon-Sat and dinner was $9.95 Mon-Sat (Sun was all day $9.95). The food
was good and many item to choose from and it includes drink. The waitress was
name Mingy. She was from Korea. She asked us where are we came from? (the owner want to know too). Then she told us she was here about 10 years and moved form New York City. She bought
a house here for $107,000 with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. We were the last
customer in this Chinese restaurant, they closed at 9:00 p.m..By the time we
were out, it passed 9:35 p.m. Next
we went to Safeway which was not far from this buffet and bought butter and ice
cream. We got our water from a station on the edge of the parking lot in front of the Safeway for $.25/gallon. Then we went
back to our trailer and Tom watching TV while I was typing this journal.
