So the propane guy came yesterday. Apparently “late morning” means 1:30 in the afternoon. But now I have two bigass propane tanks hooked to my pool heater. The good news is, it seems to work quite nicely. The bad news is, my back now hurts so bad I can’t actually swim. Gonna have to crank it up to bath water temp if all I can do is stand around. Maybe I should just have Tom Coburn shoot me. I also went to the Kubota place to pick up my tractor part. Oh, the sight of all those shiny new orange tractors…. I very much have tractor envy. Not to mention I have to figure out how to fix the one I’ve got (simple in theory – if I had a lift to put it up on; flat on my back in the garage groveling underneath the thing well, that might be just a wee bit of a hassle). Oh well, time to take some pills.
Today, we are going to the eye doctor for new prescriptions and new glasses. I have finally had to admit the the old prescription is not working as well as it used to.
Meanwhile summer is coming to an end. My boss has written to me but not called so I still don’t know where she intends to send me and she still doesn’t know that I’ll retire before I commute to the Bronx.
This kid is obviously too smart for his own damn good. Note that he is from NY State, and not, say, Texas.
Alright, if I’m gonna make it ’til 5:00, I’m gonna need something to keep me awake.
