4612 - Progress
4613 -
461301 - Prior cleaning was on 170529 0900. ref SDS 21 UN5H
461302 -
461303 - In the kitchen, put medications inside microwave to make it easier for
461304 - the girls by avoiding having to move them out of the way to clean the
461305 - kitchen counter, and then remember how they are organized and stacked
461306 - to restore the configuration.
461308 - ..
461309 - In kitchen, moved scale and wood cutting board into garage, so the
461310 - girls can clean the counters and mop floors.
461311 -
461312 -
461313 -
461314 -
461316 - ..
461317 - Included picture showing feet bandaging and protection devices
461318 - required for hiking, prior to getting PRP injection treatments, and
461319 - switching to Hoka Bondi shoes and Smartwool socks.
461320 -
461322 -
461323 -
461325 - ..
461326 - Vacuum cleaner filter bag had to be changed. Found supply of new
461327 - filter bags in the top shelf of 2nd floor hall closet between the 2
461328 - front bedrooms. Turned out the last change was incorrect, resulting
461329 - in vacuumed debris missing the bag and filling up the cloth bag that
461330 - houses the filter bag. This was a total mess. Took 30 minutes just
461331 - to remove vacuumed debris from inside the cloth housing. Cleaning the
461332 - vaccuum cleaner was awkward and incomplete, especially since dust
461333 - clings to the cloth. Instructions say to "snap" the filter bag onto
461334 - the vacuum exhaust. The prior effort failed, and the effort today
461335 - seems less than certain. After attempting to snap the new filter bag
461336 - into place, powered up the vacuum cleaner, and then checked the filter
461337 - bag. Seems still connected, but not certain.
461339 - ..
461340 - Checked this several times over the next few hours using the vacuum.
461341 - Filter debris bag seemed to still be in place.
461343 - ..
461344 - Vacuumed the upstairs master bedroom, because this requires moving a
461345 - lot of stuff, which is hard for the girls to lift. Took about an hour
461346 - for this task - starting with taking everything out of the closet,
461347 - vacuuming, then putting it back.
461349 - ..
461350 - Moved the table and the big Lazyboy chair away from the walls, and
461351 - vacuumed behind them. Put everything back, and moved the wall table
461352 - and other furniture from the South wall, and vacuumed. Then put the
461353 - furniture back into position, similar to house cleaing on 160225...

461367 - Dusted wall table, because this required a shovel.
461369 - ..
461370 - Picked the television from the swivel platform and placed on the bed.
461371 - Removed the swivel platform, and moved the support tables. Moved all
461372 - the cables. Then vacuumed the floor.

461390 - Disconnected keyboard and mouse cables. Moved Lazyboy chair, rolling
461391 - wood cabinet, standing lamp several, and keyboard stand, several times
461392 - in order to vacuum that corner of the room. Handled the weight of the
461393 - 60" television okay. It is awkward, but manageable. Disassblbled
461394 - television/monotor platform and tables for comprehensive cleaning...

461406 - Vacuumed the office for same reason. Actually, vacuumed entire
461407 - upstairs. Did not dust the steel furniture with wood shelves in the
461408 - front bedroom. Sofia and Lucia did this.
461410 - ..
461411 - In the office, moved all the furniture, both computers, both monitors,
461412 - modem, router, keyboard controller, and all the cables away from the
461413 - West wall. Disassblbled television/monotor platform and tables. This
461414 - enabled thoroughly vacuuming the floor, and cleaning the window sill..

462201 - Sophia helped...
462202 -
462203 - replace 65" Samsung monitor.
462204 - move the desk into place and then get it aligned.
462205 - computer c22 aligned with desk
462206 - tilted desk for positioning chair mat

4626 -
462601 - Completed restoring office configuration with desks and computers.
462602 -
462603 - This is a total puzzel reconnecting all the cables.
462605 - ..
462606 - Sophia helped get correct alignment, including replacing the chair mat
462607 - by tilting the desk, so the mat will slide beneath the support panel.
462609 - ..
462610 - We increased slightly clearance on the North end of the desk, so it
462611 - is a little easier to access c22, the windown, and various
462612 - connections at the back of the Samsung 65" display, the 4TB backup
462613 - external disk, and the router.
462615 - ..
462616 - Keyboard controller connections are complex. Took a picture before
462617 - disassembling, so it was easier to restore.
462619 - ..
462620 - Power connections for router, modem, external disk, and keyboard
462621 - controller, are all similar. They have slightly different fittings,
462622 - so cannot make a mistake connecting the wrong cable.
462624 - ..
462625 - After everything restored, seemed a miracle that all the computer
462626 - equipment worked. However, the telephone was not working. Found
462627 - prior failure under similar circumstances on 170303 1610. ref SDS 18
462628 - GK4M That record found a solution from an earlier event that cost
462629 - $150 for a Comcast service engineer to fix the problem. The solution
462630 - is reported on 140618 0806. ref SDS 7 YF9F Same solution worked
462631 - again today.

463004 - charged $100, and I paid them $140.
