I am a total incompetent.  I have no mechanical skills whatsoever.  I was so tired of Nicky and I sufferring through the heat during the summer months.  So, this year I broke down and bought one of these portable(?) air contioners that you didn't have to install in your window.  Since I have sliders, and since I rent; I didn't want to hassle with installing a regular air conditioner in the bedroom and then having to block out the light when I was sleeping.  Also, my bedroom window is about twelve feet off the ground; and you don't want to see me build something on a ladder.

So today I take this thirty-five pound (portable) air conditioner and then sit here for an hour trying to figure out how to install this Window Panel Adapter.  And within the first half hour I have already lost the packet of four screws needed for installation.  And to make it worse, my neighbors in the townhouse to the north are lounging in their backyard and staring at the stooge show I am performing.  Grrrrrrrrr!

Maybe you should ask them if they can help you

Better yet, invite George over for a drink.

I have finished....with the transition.....

Moved shelves Monday and Tuesday....stacked up shelves.......fixed shelves that fell down.

Bought new desk at Wal Mart today.  Put together desk.  Went to buy 2 3-drawer units...since it's a writing table and not a desk...only one drawer....easier to put together....moved everything around.....changed out the drawers....moved the file cabinets....unhooked all the wires and cables.....used a hammer to break up the six-drawer WOODEN Teacher's desk that had been in the room since 1993.......carried the pieces out.....moved all the file cabinets to a new wall....moved a shelf.....moved the writing desk....hooked the computer and all peripherals back up.

Everything is working.....and I am tired.

I better win a Tony tonight after all that work!

60 Minutes started on time - so Tony should be on time as well.

DR TCB, I understand that JRand has some hardware left over from assembling his new desk. Perhaps it will help complete your new AC project.   ;)

And if JRand wins a Tony tonight--and I certainly hope he does--then he may be in the mood to share.

Besides JRand and FINIAN'S, I know nothing about this year's Tony nominations. I am cheering for both.

Thanks for the vibes- I'm still reading his Caringbridge journal that his family did while he was in the hospital.  He just got home this week so I'm going to send him something

I made Shake and Bake pork chops tonight and roasted the remaining parsnips, potatoes and ....radishes!   I had some in the fridge that were getting a little old, so I soaked them in water and thought I'd see what they'd taste like roasted.  Not much actually, but it was a fun experiment

DR Cillaliz - a former cubible-mate of mine had a brain aneurysm and made a full recovery.  She returned to work and got a big promotion before she retired.  Vibes to your friend for a similar outcome!

Well the first hour of awards was interesting.  I really enjoyed Mairan Seldes' speech.

Reading the journal it seems that he has made amazing progress since March.   I obviously am not that close to him anymore, he lives in St Louis, but I'm hoping to make contact soon.  I saw a Youtube message he sent to his mother on Mother's day and he looks pretty good.
