Today was a big day. Scully’s 7th birthday!
My wife took her to work with her, because today we also had an electrician in to install our new light fittings. He arrived early at 07:30, and was occupied with working and making clutter with all of the boxes and packaging the light fittings came in. A couple of the lights needed some tricky reconfiguring of screw placements, due to overly large holes cut through the ceiling plasterboard. But he managed to successfully install everything within a couple of hours. And the new fittings look great!
But I had to go out and buy some new light bulbs, because the old fittings were all bayonet style, and three of the new ones are now Edison screw fittings, so the old bulbs don’t fit in the new sockets. So I went to the hardware store to buy some new bulbs, before returning to fit them in place.
My wife worked half a day and had the afternoon off to celebrate Scully’s birthday. I picked her up in the car and we drove over to Lil’ Mix bakery to get some food. My wife really likes it there, but it’s not open on weekends, so we don’t have much chance to go there during the week.
Back home I cleaned up the packing material and took it out to the bins. And kept some of the spare parts in case we need them later. I made fried rice for dinner, and then had three ethics classes in a row. And now I have a yummy cookie form Lil’ Mix for dessert.
