I helped John a bit with the plumbing this morning.  He discovered after it was all done that he had the incoming going to the hot water line instead of the cold.  We got the parts to fix it, but didn't do it today, the smell of the glue was so strong I think it was making us woozy.  I was dizzy and had a headache and I think it was the glue smell in that little closed in room.  Later John ran the conduit and put electric line from the pink room to the outside wood room.  He put conduit in before we poured the sidewalk, so the link goes under.  Our pour from yesterday is doing well, we covered it with plastic because the wind was drying it out too fast and there is still moisture under there. 

My visiting teacher came by today, I don't know why, but since they switched wards and I got a new one, I dread her coming.  I like her, it's Dodie LeSueur, but I just don't feel comfortable with her like I did tonya.

We started smelling smoke this afternoon and when I went outside to see where it was coming from, the air was hazy and smoky.  It got worse as the day went on, found it it's a controlled burn over by Pinetop.  Andy said it was bad at Mountain Meadows, they thought it was coming from a recent control burn by them, called and found it wasn't, it was from the Pinetop burn.  They always seem to start their burns on the windy days, wish they wouldn't do that!!

I forgot to post today so trying to remember what we did.  I think we poured the last bit of the sidewalk by the casa wall and the edge where the wall was.  Good to have that done! 

I discovered in my searching for a fix for the computer troubles I'm having that the service I use to back up my computer was taking up a bunch of space.  Almost half the c drive at one point!  41.4 GB out of the 116 on my c drive! I emailed them and told them how big one folder was and they said I could delete some of the files, but it might cause trouble.  I didn't do it then, but when my drive got down to 0 space left again, I went and deleted some of them.  It freed up a lot of space!  Not sure I'll keep using backblaze, I back up to externals anyway, so I have the files.
