Garage maybe? My house in Texas had the water heater and breaker box out there. Just a suggestion... Generally, your main dwelling breaker/fuse panels are inside. The exception being the main cut-off/breaker for an AC unit or pool heater/pump.

No garage. That would have been the first place I looked. I’ve missed it, somehow, but as I said, I just wanted to make sure he had access to it without wasting a lot of time moving things around to get to it. Boxes full of books are heavy!!

I remember all my friends couldn't get enough of Blazing Saddles. For me, Young Frankenstein will always be the quintessential Mel Brooks movie.

Put ... the candle ... back.

Did you find a fuse box?

Nothing. As I said. Chuck knows where it is, but if I’ve covered it, I wanted to make sure there were no boxes in his way when he comes to replace the switch. It’s his problem, now!

My personal library is up to 8 full sized book cases in 3 different rooms of my house.

If I have to move again, I’m hiring movers...

Four full-sized book cases, two smaller ones and a mongrel mid-size, extra-wide something that was on freecycle.com. Actually four of the book cases were on freecycle!

Book boxes are heavy, and unless I move into my own place, I won’t be moving again. I’m moving to AR because my son and grandson are there and my son has all the legal permissions. Just in case I don’t live forever, like I’ve planned! ;o]

With the exception of probably the last 15-20 books I’ve purchased, I’ve read them all.

Thanks, guys, for your help and suggestions! The breaker box is outside!

Chuck won’t be coming today after all. He said he’s been “under a sink for the last two hours,” so I told him we could do this on Monday. He looked relieved.

So two more days of not being able to finish up the packing in the kitchen. But that’s OK. I need the rest, since I don’t dare try to do too much!

Well, yeah, but this is a protected valley right next to Zion National Park, so...

Kitteh is sneekin’ up on you!

Good morning.

Did you sleep well last night? I’m sure you’ll take a well deserved NapWithACat today.

How do your legs feel? I hope you’re well rested. Or at least on the way to it.

I slept okay. Jake will make sure we nap! Everything is tired, in general, but it could be a lot worse.

Shannon met me at the foot of the stairs to complain, so she’s feeling better!

I am so glad Shannon is feeling better! What an ordeal! Like a mugging of an old lady.

Does the license plate have to be tweaked?
