Day 215 April 22

 Today was pantry day.  I started the morning with my pickups as always.  Sprouts was a pretty big pickup, so I was running late.  When I got back to the pantry, everything got put away quickly, and then we had a volunteer appreciation lunch.  Doug and Cristal picked up food from La Casita, and it was a really good lunch.  After lunch, we got to work.  It was a busy but uneventful day.  At the end of the day, we packed up and went back to the office.  From the office, I made a trip to Goodwill, and on the way back, I got really stuck in construction.  When I made it back to the office, I was tasked with putting the beer on ice for the retirement party that was happening in the evening.  When I had finished up, I headed to Josh and John's to meet Christian for our 1-on-1.  After our 1-on-1, we headed back to the house, where Leigha led a learning component about budgets to prep Michael and I for sharing the monthly budget in the...

Day 214 April 21

 Today I started by going to Home Depot with Tressa and picking up some stuff for painting at the office.  When we got back to the office, I spent the next few hours painting the side doors to the office.  There was a lot of taping off to do, which was extremely frustrating.  When I was done painting doors, I cleaned everything up, and then I helped leasing put together a couple of shelves to help organize their files.  When I was done putting together the shelves, I headed home.  When I got home, I did some stuff around the house before Michael made us his wraps for supper.  After supper, we watched an episode of Firefly, and then I went to bed.

Day 213 April 13

 Today we started with the Sprouts pick up.  It was not very good, but there were a lot of prepared meals.  When we got to the pantry, I decided to wash some of our organizer trays, but when I turned on the water, the hose I was going to use broke, so I helped put everything away instead.  We were expecting the delivery of some shelving while we were there, but it did not show up.  We had to keep ourselves busy for about an hour before we could go to Westside.  We left for Westside at 11 and delivered the bread.  Then I dropped Jenni off at the office and made a quick Goodwill run to get rid of some clothes we had.  When I got back from Goodwill, we took lunch.  While we were at lunch, Doug went to a FedEx store and got our shelves.  He made a great dad joke today to.  "Hey, Sam, did you know that FedEx and UPS merged?  Now everyone is real FEDUP."  When Doug got back with our shelves, we went back to the pantry, and while...

Day 212 April 12

 Today we had holy humor Sunday.  It was a really entertaining service, and they put in a lot of effort to make it funny.  After church, we headed home for some lunch, and then I went and did the shopping for the week.  While I was out and about, I stopped at a gas station to wash the windows since I got them really dirty yesterday.  When I got back from shopping, I put everything away, and then we went to a park for a while.  When we got back, Christian and I made some delicious spaghetti.  After supper, I relaxed for a while, and then I finished the evening by watching an episode of Firefly.

Day 211 April 11

 This morning, after breakfast, I headed up the mountain to go hiking.  It was about 10 miles up a super curvy dirt road.  The hike was really beautiful and had some great views of the city, the mountains, and the plains.  When I got done with my hike, I found a little Mexican restaurant just off the road from where I went to the trail.  It was a really long wait, but it was a super cool place, and the loaded nachos were delicious.  When I got back to the house, I relaxed for a little bit, and then we went to a park.  From the park, Christian and I went to DQ to get some blizzards, and then we went back to the park to play some more.  Then we headed back to the house, and we warmed up some more pizza and mozzarella sticks.  After supper, I played with Naomi for a while, then held Josiah while Christian put Naomi to bed.  Josiah got pretty upset, so Christian had to put him to sleep.  Then I relaxed the rest of the evening before goi...

Day 210 April 10

 Today I started my day at Bentley.  Since I had to come back early, I drove the Honda.  I did a few work orders at Bentley, and then it was already time to come back.  When I got back, Olivia and Alexus had a lot of flyers they needed help folding.  There was a lot of folding, but we visited the whole time, which made it go faster.  When I was done folding, I took the van home.  When I got home, I had some lunch and then relaxed for the afternoon before making some sloppy joes and baked beans for supper.  After supper, we watched a couple of episodes of Firefly, and then I went to bed. 

Day 209 April 9

I started my day by driving the Honda down to the shop for the oil change.  Bill picked me up from there, and we went to inspections at North Weber.  They were uneventful and nothing crazy.  When we were done with inspections, Bill took me over to Bentley.  On the way, he bought me a burrito for lunch from Quijotes.  At Bentley, I finished the last make-ready, did a few random work orders, and then had my lunch.  After lunch, I helped Alden clean out the pit of doom again.  When the pit was clean, I did a few other work orders, and then Bill picked me up.  We went back to the shop to get the Honda, and on the way back, I tested the sound system, which was exceptional.  When I got back to the office, I backed it into the parking spot so everyone would know I drove it.  Then I headed home.  When I got home, I ate some food. I don't know if it was supper food, but it was food.  Then I relaxed the rest of the evening.
