My meter base install was approved by L&I and PSE a couple of weeks ago and today I got my electric service hookup.

I stopped conserving use of my power bank once it was scheduled a week ago. I used scrubby angle-grinder wheels to buff off the grime on an industrial sink that a friend grabbed for me from a demolition site. I hooked it up to my network of commercial outdoor hose that I got from Yusef at the amazing Discount Collection Store. I’ve refined the network of hose, and put the portions that cross the drive access in ditches.

I brought to Second Use two folding cafeteria tables that were in the shed when I got the place 14 months ago, and picked up a door and 3 windows for a forthcoming tiny house.

I got rid of a cast iron wood stove that also came with the shed. It was a challenge getting it up my makeshift ramps with my hand truck into the back of the mini truck. I took it to American Northwest Recycling, where it weighed in at 340 pounds for which they paid me $31.
