Chores

After baseball I got home, intending to do a few chores. There are plenty of things I've been meaning to do around the house, and it was a warm, calm day. So with Kendall (And Buddy) in tow, we went to change a sprinkler head. Kendall was sitting there, watching me work on it until her Aunt and Uncle came over, and then she abandoned me.

I got the head changed, set it to sprinkler the areas I wanted, without too many curses for the installer. I hate people that attach sprinklers from the side. It's a huge pain to replace the heads and it can't be that much harder to just dig deeper and attach them on the bottom.

I had planned on doing a few more, but Tia asked if I'd do some video of her and Zarah, so I grabbed another beer (I'd gotten one for the sprinkler work) and then took the camera out back. I spent about 45 minutes taping horses, and about 6:15 I realized the basketball game had started, so I used my cell phone to log onto the DirecTV site and start recording the game. I'd done that while driving to baseball as well, but I wasn't sure if it was working.

After I got some pizza going for kids I came up and checked, and sure enough the games were recorded. So I'm finishing some video while watching games I scheduled the recording of from my phone.
