Sad duck

[Saturday: 3.8 miles; Today: 3.2 miles]

The duck that hatched out awhile ago, that we then put in our unused jacuzzi tub. Well, when I returned from Iowa we moved it out with the other ducks.

But some time in the days leading up to that, it suffered a broken wing. My wife thinks the cat did it.

Nevertheless, it is still alive but just barely. Every day we expect it to be dead in the morning but it hasn’t died yet.


Today was new door installation day. He has a little bit of trim to finish up tomorrow. Otherwise, it is in place and sealed up. A big improvement!

I was down in Meridian Friday evening and most of the day Saturday, pet sitting for #1 Son who had a big running race in Birmingham. He did really well on his race, and the pets survived.

I went to an estate sale and they had a camping chair there for $10 which is a definite step-up from the cheapies they sell at Wal-Mart and Dick’s Sporting Goods. I sat in it this evening while the ladies ran the Monday Night Hill Stomper Shuttle Run. A very good deal.

The estate sale also had a high end vintage Pioneer turntable. But the seller wanted $200 for it and I already have two turntables. So I did a pass on that opportunity.

When #1 Son arrived back home Saturday afternoon we went out to eat. I had an interesting dish with tuna steak and jasmine rice and some sweet sauce and garnish. It was very good. I think the name of the place we went is Harvest Grill. I recommend it. After that I drove home.
