A bit weary today

Robert and I were both tired today. Neither one of admitted
it until at lunch, I commented that I just didn't seem to
have any energy. He nodded. I had changed the bed, taken
off the heated mattress pad and put on the electric blanket.
The nights are cool enough so some heat is needed and more
than a warm mattress pad. In addition I had done a few other
things including carrying a couple of buckets of water up to
water the papyrus which we had brought in for the winter.
But not much else. Robert admitted he hadn't accomplished
much either.

We decided to go to Lowes to look at freezers. I had pretty
much made up my mind what size and what model I wanted. It
turned out that $65.00 was the cost of delivery for a
freezer that about $250.00. I looked at Robert and asked if
he thought we could really manage it ourselves. We had come
in the truck so we could take it home. He didn't answer,
but said that he wasn't sure it would fit through the door.
We decided to wait. We bought some of the new energy
efficient florescent light bulbs and he bought a chain saw
on a pole which he had been wanting and we came home. On
the way home he suggested that I just call and order the
freezer and have it delivered, assuming it would fit through
the door, that "frankly, I don't feel up to dealing with
it." He'll probably forget he said that, but I plan to do
just that. I may go to Lowes and arranged for delivery, but
am relieved we don't have to try and do it ourselves.

I shall have coffee with Jo on Thursday.

Fred Clare called as did Betty Valent. Fred, Betty and Dick
will all be coming to my house party.
