Hey Darlin’,
Looking forward to daylight standard time, this being dark until almost 7:30 is crazy! After chores and breakfast, I headed out to Glenn’s to get his lawn mowed. Next time I need to bring my sharpener, the blades just aren’t cutting like they’re supposed to. Despite a forecast with 10-20 percent chance of rain, I suffered through multiple downpours, even having to stop and hang out in the Quonset hut a couple of times. Got it done, though. Pool pump breaker was off when I arrived, so I had to get that going again. Then headed over to the hazardous waste dump in Palm City to drop off all the gas I had drained from the Buick tank, finally met up with James at Home Depot, where we exchanged all the stuff that he bought that was wrong for all the stuff that was right. That’ll keep me busy for a day or two! I also stocked up on pool chemicals, I’m determined to get the balance right in Glenn’s pool. After that, I headed to Walmart to do some shopping, then the gas station to get fresh gas for the Buick and diesel for the truck, then back to Glenn’s, where I put in lots of chlorine, reattached a screen tarp on his back fence that had come off during the hurricane, and finally started to make a bit of headway on the pool. It was already looking better by the time I left. Did some brushing, then left it for the navigator to do it’s thing for a couple of days, hopefully it will improve by the time I check back in a few days. Finally got back to camp after 6:00, had dinner and settled down for the evening. Busy day! Took my shower as soon as I got home, though, because I accidentally spilled gasoline on my jeans at the station earlier, stank to high heaven all the way home and right up until I peeled my jeans off! Whew! Was afraid I might pass out in the truck a time or two! Anyway, now I’m ready for a Spanish lesson and bed, nice and early! Good night, babe! Love you!
