Well, same old thing today, going to get hot but I think I can handle it.

I slept in this morning until 6:40AM!!  I think I must have been pretty tired. Getting up even at 6AM doesn’t leave much time to do anything in the morning.  Sparky takes up a lot of my time.  He needs attention for an hour or so.

This morning at work I got to tinker with a golf cart that quit running yesterday. I started with the simple stuff like filling it up with gas etc. Can’t be easy.  I checked and it’s getting spark so I checked the gas lines.  Looked OK so I started taking the one off that was farthest away from the tank.   Looked pretty dry.  Mark suggested trying another fuel pump. Good idea, not possible though.  The hoses are just to short to reach and I’ve been working on this for over three days already this morning!  There was just no way to hook up the other pump so I took it off and put it back together.  It was already 12:40PM and I was all wet and greasy.  After getting it back together I decided to try it one more time and Viola! It started and ran.  I think the Lord did it, it sure wasn’t anything that I knew that I did.  I don’t think it runs right yet, Bits said it was either stop or wide open and she could smell gas, but the golf carts always stink.  Anyway, it is running for the time being.

This afternoon Grant and I went to Russell Street.  I started loading the last of the branches and before I was done, Grant was done.  The grass is really dry and not growing so we went on back to the RV Park.  After unloading, I sprayed Roundup again on the places I missed.  After that I pulled these weeds that seem to like Roundup…

If you let these grow the get about four feet tall and the roots go all over and start new plants.  If you mow them down they just spread out then the mower can’t get them.

After doing that I picked up some trash that was blowing around and figured it was about time to go home.

After work I stopped and looked at a pump and tank for the well.  I figured it was worth $175, not as big as I would like but it will work and hopefully pretty good.

I made some of my soup tonight, it is Ramen Soup with Okra in it.  The Okra really gives it a good taste I think.  Also had a chicken sandwich…

I don’t know why people say that Okra is slimy!  I don’t think it is, I think it is very good, hope it’s good for you!!

Not a lot going on tonight either, I’m tired so will take it easy…Night Y’all..
