Jan's off to school for a bit...then we'll do a few quick errands and scurry back home.... |^|

....funny how Sassy can always find the mud when it's out there in the back yard...it's like radar....LOL

The rain here will come tomorrow.  Today it mostly overcast but It's 80 degrees!  I got my fish shipped and I'm not even feeling stressed out!  I am making progress!  I brought my clipper home from work so I can cut off most of my Old Chow's hair in comfort.  He's still need a bath and brush out at the shop before I can put a good finish on him but the job will be way easier with the rough out done at home.
Always move forward. Never look back.

I forgot to mention that I stopped by to visit Charlotte.  Chip has the tilt steering column in.

Grocery shopping done, water changes for today done.  It rained yesterday. The ground is still frozen so there is water standing every where. Drizzling a little now. I just put out some buckets to see if I can get enough rainwater for my two RO tanks water change tomorrow.  Would have had what I needed but I didn't think about it yesterday.

I'm not afraid of work.  I can lay down right next to it and go to sleep.

That was Chip's brother, Scott.  He works off shore but used to do that stuff when he came home during time off.  He no longer comes back home.  Chip says that he doesn't thank that Scott will ever come back home.  I've asked several times.

Most excellent day here.  Clothes dry broke so I tore it apart and went to town to get parts.  The Gal said she just sold the last one of what I needed.  There was a repair guy there too so he went out to his truck and came back in with the part I needed.

Almost 80 here today temp wise.  150 mile cruse to nowhere in particular.  Need to change the plugs in the bike.  It has a miss up around 8000 rpm.  It ran so good last year, I never installed the new plugs I bought.  It has the ones from back in '88 still installed.  Starts great and 50 mpg, just a high rpm miss.
