I cut all the trim pieces for the base in the Office and lay them in place but did not nail any of them. Next I started cutting the stair treads one by one. Each one has slightly different dimensions. I got about half of the treads cut before tiring out in the evening. It was a long day of walking multiple times up and down the stairs. My knee is acting up, at one point it wouldn't support me without pain. I need to take it easy. I also ate too much today. Lunch was Lloyds BBQ on a bun. I had the same BBQ for dinner on a buun as well as ravioli and tomato sauce. I really need to cut down the eating. I'm feeling stuffed the next day as I write this. I got up earlier than usual this morning and checked Libbie in for her 6:20 AM flight tomorrow. I also did a grocery run picking up the normal staples in Kroger then going to Costco and picking up wine and blueberries. In the evening I listened to Norma live from the Met. I nowo have a different opinion of this Opera. At first I didn't think much of it but now I like it. The singing is awesome and the music and the choruses are great. I listened to it all the way to the end.
