Day 33, Friday, October 16, 2009 - 0 miles

This morning after breakfast, I went to Pru's and put handles on her kitchen cupboard doors. She had purchased them at a Home Depot that was closing. I'm not sure how long she had them, but she needed someone to drill the holes in the oak doors to mount them. I made two drill templates, for left and right opening doors, from a couple of old cigar boxes. I wanted the hole location and spacing to be the same on all doors. I was very careful on the fixtures, but it turned out the handles varied a bit and were bendable enough to fit variances.

In the afternoon, Pru drove the four of us to niece Ann, Tim, and David's house for a visit. David, a computer science major in college, tried to fix the problem I have been having using Outlook for email, but to no avail. He did inform me my hard drive was nearly full. After looking closer, we found the hard drive is partitioned into two equal segments called OS and Data. I assume the Data side was for my documents and the other for applications. Anyway, neither he nor Ann, an IT specialist for the state, know how to work with partitions. Guess I will have to go to a service shop.

Before leaving, Tim gave me a walking stick he had made. He had about 20-30 sticks, all different, and gave me my choice. Unable to work, he makes these to occupy his time. They look great. Thanks again, Tim.
