This morning we went to visit my wife’s family for morning tea at a cafe. I don’t drink coffee, but I had a Nutella cookie, which was really good. Very chocolatey.
After that my wife and I went into a big hardware store which was nearby, to check their timber offcuts bin. I’m going to install a shelf in the laundry to store things on, and I only need a relatively small piece of board, much smaller than the large boards they sell for $50+. When other people buy boards, they sometimes get the hardware store to cut them to the size they need, and the offcuts are left there in a bin for people to rummage through, and you can buy an offcut for as little as $1.
Unfortunately today they didn’t have very many, and all the board offcuts were MDF, which is not the material I want. I want either solid pine board or maybe plywood. I’ll keep looking in other hardware stores over the next few weeks until I find what I need.
Back home I made some sourdough bread, and did some comics stuff, and planned another two topics for Critical and Ethical Thinking classes for upcoming weeks. And then taught four classes in the evening. Phew!
