HOWARD’S DAILY CHRONICLE
NUMBER 6 VOL 5
DECEMBER 6TH 2007
WEATHER; COOL, WINDY, LOW HUMIDITY, 64 DEGREES
JUST 19 DAYS LEFT TILL “FATHER CHRISTMAS” COMES KNOCKING ON YOUR DOOR. YOU BETTER HAVE MILK AND COOKIES FOR HIM OR HE’LL PUT A LUMP OF COAL IN YOU WOODEN SHOE BY THE FIRE.
STARTED DOING THE INSIDE DECORATIONS, IT’S A SLOW PROCESS IF I WANT IT TO LOOK LIKE ANYTHING! FOR A CHANGE MOM DIDN’T HAVE TO GO TO TOWN TODAY BUT, SHE DOES TOMORROW SHE DID HAVE TO GO GET HALEY JO AND BRING HER HOME FOR HER MOTHER TO WATCH TILL KELLY OR GLENDA GET HOME.
KELLY GOT A NEW HOSE FOR THE RADIATOR PRESSURE TESTER SO NOW MAYBE I CAN FIND OUT WHY THE SYSTEM IN THE ACCLAIM DOESN’T BUILD ANY PRESSURE. IT’S GOT TO BUILD PRESSURE TO MAKE THE HEATER WORK RIGHT AND GET THE ENGINE UP TO OPERATING TEMPERATURE WHICH IS 195 DEGREES, I PUT A CANDY THERMOMETER IN THE RADIATOR THE OTHER DAY AND IT WOULD ONLY GET UP TO 75 DEGREES! THE OLD ENGINE RUNS SO GOOD I HATE TO THINK HOW IT WILL RUN WHEN IT’S UP TO TEMPERATURE! THIS IS REALLY THE ONLY THING WE’VE HAD TROUBLE WITH! EVERYTHING WAS FINE TILL I LET THE ENGINE IDLE WHEN WE WERE UP AT AN OVERLOOK IN THE BADLANDS ON OUR TRIP AND IT BOILED THE ANTI FREEZE OUT! EVER SINCE THEN THERE HAS BEEN SOMETHING NOT RIGHT. THE TEMPERATURE GAGE STAYS RIGHT WHERE IT SHOULD BUT THE HEATER ONLY BLOWS WARM, WIDE OPEN IT NEVER GETS AS HOT AS I KNOW IT SHOULD. I’LL HAVE THE ANSWER TOMORROW THOUGH AND FIX WHATEVER IT TAKES TO MAKE IT DO RIGHT!
WE’VE BEEN TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE DECK COVER AND STAYING ON THE DECK TILL IT GETS ALMOST DARK OR TOO COLD. IT SURE IS NICE! NOW WE TURN ON THE LIGHTS AND THEY’RE SURE PRETTY EVEN THE CATS LOOK AT THEM BUT I’M NOT SURE THEY SEE ANYTHING BUT GRAY MAYBE IT’S THE WARMTH FROM THE BULBS?
I GOT AN E-MAIL FROM MY NIECE DEBBI DWELLY IN WINLOCK, WASHINGTON AND SHE SAID THE REAL BAD FLOODING IS NORTH OF THEM. SOME OF THE PEOPLE ARE SHOOTING THEIR ANIMALS RATHER THAN HAVE THEM DROWN. SHE AND HER HUSBAND RAISE HORSES AND WENT DRIVING AROUND WITH HAY IN THE PICKUP FEEDING ANY ANIMALS WHO MIGHT BE STRANDED. THEY FOUND TWO DONKEYS TIED TO TREES ON A HIGH MOUND AND FED THEM AND LEFT BAILS OF HAY AT A HOUSE ACROSS THE STREET FOR THEM TO FEED THE DONKEYS. THEY PUT OUT A NOTICE ON THE RADIO AND TV THAT THEY COULD TAKE TEN HORSES TILL THE BAD WEATHER IS OVER! AND THEN WENT TO WORK REPAIRING FENCES AND GATES SO THE HORSES WILL BE SAFE! SOUNDS LIKE GOOD PEOPLE TO ME!
WE HEARD FROM SOMEONE WHO MAY BE INTERESTED IN THE MERCEDES AND REQUESTED PICTURES SO MOM AND I CLEANED ALL THE JUNK OUT WE STORED IN THE TRUNK AND VACUMMED IT AND THE FRONT AND REAR FLOORS OUT AND TOOK A BUNCH OF PICTURES OF THE INSIDE AND ENGINE COMPARTMENT ALSO THE FRONT, SIDE AND REAR VIEW. IT’S REALLY A PRETTY CAR AND HAS GOOD SOLID LINES. ALL THE CHROME SHINES EVEN THOUGH I HAVE NOT PUT ANY WAX ON IT FOR OVER A YEAR!
SMILE AT YOUR ENEMIES IT’LL DRIVE THEM CRAZY ALSO YOUR BOSS WHEN HE/SHE’S CHEWING YOU OUT SMILE AND SHAKE YOUR HEAD YES!
THAT’S “30” FOR THIS ISSUE.

DON’T FORGET WHAT HAPPENED ON DECEMBER 7TH, 1941
