After working on stuff inside the house the past few days, I finally did something out in the garage. I put up the peg boards I bought. I got these pegboards including hooks and mounting screws for a whopping 12 bucks at Big Lots. After pricing pegboard at Home Depot, this was a steal, even though they're plastic instead of wood. We'll see how they hold up. It's been a busy day. I had an appointment with children's counselors for Katie and Mandy. I also had to go to Andy's appartment and beat on his door till he woke up to let him know his son was in the hospital with pneumonia. It's been strange not having Karly around today. She's spending the night at her grandma's house. It's just really weird not having her around wanting to help me with things, or wanting a snack, or just making noise around the house. I spent about 2 hours today breaking up the ice pack in front of our driveway. There was a ridge of ice, then a puddle on the other side of it in our driveway. This made for a chunk of ice about 6-8 inches thick with a drop off of up to 10 inches or so on the other side. I got the car hung up on it a time or two, as did other visitors to our home. I decided to try to do something about it today. I tried driving the pickup back and forth on it to break it up, but to no avail. It took a hammer and chisel to break it up into chunks that I could throw off to the side. Now it's just a 2 inch deep puddle. Better, but I think I'll feel the exercise tomorrow.
