Help Thy Neighbor

I really slept in this morning! I am usually up at 5:00 am and this morning I slept until 7:00am! Do you think it might be because I did so much building and cleaning yesterday?
Yes I did get a lot done yesterday and I guess I must have passed out last night. I slept through until 7:00 without once getting up. I usually get up at least once during the night to go to the bathroom but not last night.
This morning I got up and made me a pot of coffee and sat for a long time just going over what all I had to do today.
One of the main things I have to do is help Rodney...my BIL and next door neighbor lower his porch. He has a wooden deck that he places next to his Motorhome so they can walk out on it without having to go down the steps. It makes it nice to have this porch out front but you have to be careful when you are on the road without it and you walk outside remember that you have to step down! We had one for years when we lived at Sandy Lake RV Park in Carrollton Texas. The first time we went on the road and I stepped outside I almost broke my leg falling down the steps!
Anyway his porch is too high for his new Motorhome so we have to trim the legs off so it will be the correct height to the last inside step.
While waiting on Rodney to show up I decided to get some done in the shop. I have so much stuff that needs to be discarded. Going through all that will take some time. With all the tools I have it really makes me sad that I have not been able to use them. I just have to arrange my shop where I can get to and use my tools when I want to. There are so many things that I would love to build for the grand kids and Sherri has a few projects for me to do too. I am bound and determined to get this done...

What goes around, comes around. It's always a good idea to help out where/when you can. I bet your neighbor really appreciates the help.
