Thursday, April 6, 2022 – Helped with Plumbing, Quiet Day Except for More Wrangling

Hey Darlin’,
Had a better night sleep, though it was hotter than ever when I went to bed, still over 80 in my bedroom! But I pointed a fan practically right at me, so it kept me cool enough. I ended up sleeping until 7:30, so a good night sleep. Felt more rested, but it was 100% humidity, which tires you out fast! Did my chores, had breakfast, mopped the floor because Miss Lola got her feet wet and dirty before traipsing around the trailer, finally settled down on my computer. James was due to come by, so I didn’t want to start on my taxes again, that’s going to take a full day of sequestering, so I’m going to wait until next week after Steve is gone and I’m on my own here. When James did finally make it by, the three of us ended up working on the bathhouse for awhile, though in the end we did a temporary fix by putting shutoff valves in the two showers that were leaking, so at least we could stop the water from constantly running while still leaving the rest of the bathhouse open. Exchanged a few more nasty emails with the NETA committee, who think I’m bluffing about charging a PITA assessment every three days until my request is paid (they don’t know me very well!). It’s not about the money any more, it’s about the principal. I was proud to be a servant to what I thought was a good cause, but I’ll be damned if I’ll let them make me become their slave! I also had a conversation with Anita about it, who’s the only one who has shown me any support at all against this ungrateful group. Finally settled down to a couple more episodes of my latest binge-watch, happy that even though we didn’t get any rain from it, there’s a cool front passing by so the temps have dropped somewhat, supposed to be going down into the low sixties tonight, yay! Think I’ll finish off the last trail tomorrow, which is the eastern side of the FTA hiking trail, so I’ll have to trailer down to the Cypress Boardwalk to make it reasonable. That will take a good part of the day, but I’m ready. I haven’t ridden since Sunday, though it feels longer, so I’m looking forward to that! Anyway, time for shower and bed, and hopefully, a cooler night sleep! Good night, sweetheart! Love you!
