12-17 Finishing Touches

We woke up to a damp morning. The temperature got up to 74 degrees but by 10:00pm it dropped to 38 degrees with gale force wind out of the north, suppose to be in the 20's tonight.

Yesterday, we bought a carpeted runner at The Home Depot and this morning Larry installed it on the ramp. First thing he did was cut the carpeting to fit each half of the ramp. Then he drilled holes in the carpeting and ramp. Next step he screwed the carpeting to the board. By doing this we can remove the carpeting if we need to. The next thing he did was put feet on one end to keep the ramp from slipping off. Larry assembled the ramp and tweaked it where needed. It weighs 18lbs which is a couple of pounds less than the ramp he was thinking about buying. The ramp came out super.

My Wii Fit program I worked out with

In the afternoon I worked out on my Wii Fit for an hour. Larry worked on his music project. After dinner we watched an Amazon movie called Ways to Live Forever. This movie was about a twelve year old boy fighting leukemia and things he wanted to do in his life, it was a very good movie. Then we watched a couple episodes of Star Trek The Next Generation and our YouTube videos. Then I played computer games until it was time to go to bed. LIFE IS GOOD!!!!!!
