There was a power outage at the School of Dad today – the teacher was out of gas. I am not sure what the problem was but I could not get my head in the game all day. Rather than fight it, we did some things that did not require great focus or attention on my part. We made a trip to the library, office supply store, and Lowes. Ben had some projects to work on this afternoon so he was busy. We just did not cover any new ground.
The trip to Lowes today was too look for the supplies for some shelves that we are building for Ben to display a collection. We found a premade type that we liked and then went to look at the supplies to make it ourselves. It could have been my foggy brain, or the potential price tag, but I realized that the marginal learning Ben would get from building them himself was probably not greater than the marginal cost of time and supplies, so we bought the kit. We assembled and hung it (a bit crookedly) this afternoon. He is pleased as could be. We will probably buy a couple of more.
Hopefully the power will be back on tomorrow.
