Well it is old news by now but the Spurs lost.  It was a good game except for the wrong team won.  We will have to get them tonight.  Go Spurs Go.

Yesterday I worked in the garage again.  I had to move a lot of work benches and tool boxes away from the walls and scrape up the dried mud.  I finally got all the mud out of the garage and the garage is cleaner than it has been in years.  It almost makes me proud to walk out there and do some work.  I will be out there again this morning.  I have all the power tools that I need to clean up.  I have tested most of them and they all worked which surprised me since they were all under water.

The gate opener is working great except for the keypad.  The keypad is mounted on the post by the gate and allows people who know the code to open and close the gate.  It wasn’t working so I took it off and there was some corrosion around the batteries.  I cleaned it up and it still didn’t work.  I downloaded the instructions last night and now I will read the instructions and make sure I am setting it up correctly.  Maybe it will work or else I will have to get a new one.

After doing all of that, I need to mow both my yard and Margaret and Jack’s yard.  It sure doesn’t take long for grass and weeds to grow when they get a little bit (or a lot) of rain.
