Gutters guarded

Pretty busy day, today.

I spent the morning (and part of the afternoon) frantically putting gutter guards on the gutters of our house. The rush was due to the possible approach of a tropical depression, now flitting around the Atlantic off of North Carolina. So far today the rain has been negligible. But when it does come, the gutters will be ready. Since we’d moved in I’d wanted to get that done.

The best part about today’s work was watching the mosquitoes become confused when their watery nests were no longer available. I’m hopeful those caps will now save us some bug bites.

The wife and kids were at a birthday party while I worked. When they returned, we took one of our cars over to get new tires. Then we spent some time playing in the library before picking up the car from the tire place. Dinner followed, which itself was followed by family game night (the game “Sorry!”). Lots of fun was had by all.

Now its time to dig into my new library book, The Shock Doctrine. Should be entertaining.
