Hasn't been a really busy day for me. Been watching Mike Holmes on the TV when I haven't been working on the computer. When I was sorting through the program disks looking for one that I needed a copy of I came to the conclusion for the umpteenth time that I really need a set of diskette filer trays for all these disks I have instead of these cardboard boxes. And again I simply filed it away under "Something to get when I have the money for it". I have more important things to worry about than where I store my disks.
The weather guesser didn't say anything about rain this morning but I know I heard raindrops hitting the roof this afternoon. That and the stiff wind he said nothing about that was blowing sticks, limbs and a whole bunch of pine needles against my trailer. To date I haven't heard or seen any water coming in anywhere and haven't heard any dripping inside the walls. The temporary repairs are holding up well. I thank all of you who have contributed. Without your help I wouldn't have even gotten this far. I would have had to take out a loan or sell a bunch of my model stuff or both. Most of my railroad models are rebuilds or home-built stuff and as such aren't worth much except to those looking for something unusual or something that's a one-of-a-kind item. The heavy work of going into the walls is still to come. I'm already making plans for that. The biggest thing is finding somebody who has the time to help me do it.
