We started our visit with a little repair work. The garage door opener had failed due to a nylon gear that had shredded. I ordered a replacement and should have it fixed by next visit. Then I replaced the light over the washer. It had been going on and off for some time. So I got another 2 bulb light and hung it instead. Those little metal boxes have lots of sharp edges and I cut my finger causing it to bleed quite a bit. But it is replaced and working now. Next I worked on an area of fencing. It has been my plan to mend the fences on the farm. It looks to be a rather large job. I got started by removing one of the big posts. Then while hammering in another steel post, I somehow had the striking device pivot and fall in such a way it pushed my hand into its path such that it came down on my thumb splitting it open. That hurt and evoked a stream of swear words. I had to take some time out and apply ice but was eventually able to return and finish that portion of the fence. The sore thumb certainly slowed down things. At this pace it may take a long time to finish the repairs but I've got forever.
