Putting my living rm back [View all]

The contractors finished Monday. The screen doors were a challenge, but they look good. After they left, I was going to pick up my grandkids and my car wouldn't start. AAA tech diagnosed a bad battery (probably exactly 4 years old!) He got it started, told me not to turn it off. I begged my mechanic to fit me in and got a new battery by 4 p.m. TG, the kids got rides.
It'll be easy to remember the date of house updates and battery: St. Patrick's Day, 2025.
