"Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance." - Confucius

Sally's timing was way off. I thought she ran well after replacing the points and condenser yesterday but after getting the timing set to spec this morning...yes!
I also gave the Blazer ("Black Watch") a bath. Living at the corner of two gravel roads means lots of dust and a black vehicle looks dirty quickly. Four hours and one trip later she's dirty again but still a lot cleaner than she was this morning.

One of the very few things that wasn't near perfect when we got the Blazer six weeks ago was the front seats. Their leather and the driver's seat especially was cracked and the seams splitting. I think that may be because of the time the original owners spent in Arizona where the sun baked the leather.

We made a pattern out of some cheap fabric left over from a previous project and then Pam made seat covers out of a fairly thick knit she got at the fabric store. It wasn't her first choice for fabric - she wanted upholstery fabric but they didn't have any. It turned out very well and looks custom in my opinion. And the grey color matches the original well so the covers are barely noticeable.
She did a very good job!
Note: all you see here is the seat bottom because it's too hard to get a pic that shows the whole seat without backing up so far that the door ruins the shot.

This afternoon's tasks included giving Cannoli and Donut their CD-T vaccinations. At eight weeks they weigh 37 and 34 pounds respectively which is excellent weight gain.
I still don't feel comfortable giving vaccinations but I'm getting better.
I think we're going to keep Frenchie as a breeding doe. I really like her looks. Her spots and face are unique. And she has a good disposition; she isn't at all skittish.
I mentioned to Marta that I was thinking about keeping Frenchie and she pointed out that by the time she's breeding age in 18 months Sundae will have had another set of kids and may be near the end of her breeding age. Marta said we'll have to see how Sundae recovers from kidding this set of three to know if she can be bred once more or twice more. But it may happen that the timing would work out perfectly to keep Frenchie for breeding and still only have three does in production.

I'm teaching a class on 1 Corinthians at church tomorrow. It meets for an hour before the worship service and to the extent they're following the schedule the 40 or so participants will have read through the book this week.
I'll start by giving an overview of the book's setting - when it was written, where, the circumstances that led Paul to write it and the outline he used - and then a Q&A that gives them an opportunity to ask about anything that struck them as they read it.
If they don't have questions I'll have questions for them. That's easy with 1 Corinthians.

On the way home we'll pick up a rental car that I'll drive to Seattle, leaving about 4 a.m. Monday. When mom moved into the assisted living home a couple of months ago my brothers took almost everything out of her unit at Ida Culver House and put it in a storage unit (I was in Brazil at the time and couldn't help them).
The three of us are meeting Monday to begin the process of going through all of those things. The goal is to leave an empty storage unit with everything taken home by one of us or going to Goodwill or similar.
Nobody is looking forward to this but it's what has to be done.
Our goal is to leave our kids about a pickup truck's worth of stuff.

Don't know if these people are incredible or incredibly foolish but it's amazing to watch.
