as of next week

That last night was late is clear and today is wet. The alarm sounds early, than you Siri, but it is no use. The day remains damp and nasty. 

Spend some time in the morning trying to solder the connection on the record player, but the connections to the two cinch plugs have been so mishandled that no correction is possible any more. Also, the soldering iron the workshop does not work any more. Go up to the sons room and notice that his fancy soldering workstation has been smashed, he must have dropped it. Spend over an hour sticking the pieces back together with a mixture of cyanoacrylate and some powder. Together this makes a very fast-drying seam between the plastic pieces. It sticks to the fingers as well, making it difficult to remove them from whatever they have got stuck to.

The result is functional, but not beautiful. There is less risk of an electrical shock from the device now, now that its housing is in one piece again.

Talk to the tenant for a while, she seems entirely happy to have sold her shop, and is perfectly happy to stop being the boss and turning into somebody else's employee, still doing the same job.

Carry on clearing things and doing bits and pieces. Try to remain restful today.

The whole business is not worth it, really.  The pieces of plexiglass should be available as of next week.
