What a difference a day makes...

For some reason yesterday must have been a high energy day.

I was up at 4:20am.  Now I haven’t been up that early

in a year or so, unless we had somewhere to go on the

road.  But to just wake up and not be able to go to sleep

again… so got up type of day, just hasn’t been in my

system. More like sleep for 10 hours, during this winter,

type of day.  Early to bed and late to rise.. at 7am.

Then after having breakfast, a couple of chores, and

then off with the King to his doctor. Back home, I got

out the lights that I had ordered for the pergola.

320 FEET of lights!!!.  I unwound the two connect balls.

laid them out on the lawn and then proceeded to

go back and forth, down on side, and then the other

side, and then across.. and then a star in the middle

WHICH WAS NOT EASY… finally had to drawn one

and then map it out. …. Doubling that area and then

around the edges twice.  It took me 2 and half hours.

And at last count was 37 trips up and down the ladder.

and surprisingly, I still have knees this morning.

Then at night fall, I walked out and plugged them in.

It has 8 different series… flashing, chasing, blinking

and steady.. for got the other 4.  They are not as bright

as the ones I have had on there for the past 2 years..

but really nice. And only $19 on Amazon.  And I can

tell you… 320 feet is a LOT… lol..

After such a day, I thought my batteries would be run

down by 8pm… but surprisingly I lasted until 10 pm after

reading for an hour and half.

Yep, what a difference a day makes…especially

when it is mixed with sunshine.  As it didn’t start

raining until about 2 hours after I finished.
