NUMBER 5 VOL 10

 

MAY 5^TH 2008

 

WEATHER; NICE, MED HUMIDITY, 49/79 DEGREES

 

WE’VE GOT THE LIVING ROOM SWITCHED AROUND THE WAY WE WANTED IT, NOW IT’S JUST A CASE OF PUTTING THINGS WHERE THEY SHOULD BE! THE BIG COUCH IS GOING OUT AND A SMALLER ONE WILL REPLACE IT! WE’RE GOING TO MOVE THE FAUX FIRE PLACE TO THE WEST WALL OF THE DINING AREA AND THE FAUX FIREPLACE HEATER WILL SET THERE BLOWING DOWN INTO THE LIVING ROOM AND THE HALL TO OUR BED ROOM!

 

I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT THURSDAY WITH THE AUDIOLOGIST AT BONHAM VA TO HAVE MY HEARING AIDS ADJUSTED OR GET FITTED FOR ONES THAT SET BEHIND THE EAR INSTEAD OF THESE AUTOMATIC ONES THAT GO IN THE EAR. ALL THEY DO IS SQUEAL WHEN I GET UP TO MOVE AROUND. I CAN’T EVEN PUT THE LEFT ONE IN MY EAR, IT SQUEALS CONSTANTLY!

 

KELLY WORKED ON THE INTREPID SUNDAY AND WAS GOING TO FINISH IT UP TODAY BUT WHEN HE GOT OFF WORK IT LOOKED LIKE RAIN SO HE PUT IT OFF TILL PROBABLY THURSDAY WHICH IS THE FIRST DAY WE AREN’T SUPPOSED TO HAVE RAIN! HE FOUND ENOUGH WRONG WITH THE INJECTOR PLUGS TO CAUSE A PROBLEM THEY CRUMBLED WHEN HE WENT TO UNPLUG THEM FROM THE INJECTORS! I’M GETTING KIND OF ANXIOUS TO HEAR IT RUN AND HOPE THIS OTHER WIRING HARNESS WILL DO THE JOB!

 

I’VE GOT THE PLASTIC GRILL THAT GOES UNDER THE WIPERS CLEANED OFF, NOW I’M GOING TO PAINT IT SEMIGLOSS BLACK WHICH SHOULD MAKE IT LOOK LIKE ORIGINAL! THE COSMETICS CAN BE DONE ANY TIME  THE MAIN THING IS TO GET TO RUNNING PROPERLY SO WE CAN GET A CHECK ON THE MPG AND HANDLING. WE GOT THE NEW SHOCKS AND STRUTS AND NOW I’M GOING TO SEE ABOUT GETTING THEM MOUNTED ON THE CAR SO IT CAN BE ALIGNED!

 

JUST A LITTLE HUMOR:

 

NUTS & NATURE!

 

A FATHER AND SON WENT HUNTING TOGETHER FOR THE FIRST TIME.

 

THE FATHER SAID, "STAY HERE AND BE VERY QUIET. I'LL BE ACROSS THE FIELD."

 

A FEW MINUTES LATER, THE FATHER HEARD A BLOODCURDLING SCREAM AND RAN BACK TO HIS SON.

 

"WHAT'S WRONG?" THE FATHER ASKED. "I TOLD YOU TO BE QUIET."

 

THE SON ANSWERED:

 

"LOOK, I WAS QUIET WHEN THE SNAKE SLITHERED ACROSS MY FEET.

I WAS QUIET WHEN THE BEAR BREATHED DOWN MY NECK.

I DIDN'T MOVE A MUSCLE WHEN THE SKUNK CLIMBED OVER MY SHOULDER.

I CLOSED MY EYES AND HELD MY BREATH WHEN THE WASP STUNG ME.

I DIDN'T COUGH WHEN I SWALLOWED THE GNAT.

I DIDN'T CUSS OR SCRATCH WHEN THE POISON OAK STARTED ITCHING.

 

BUT WHEN THE TWO CHIPMUNKS CRAWLED UP MY PANT LEGS AND SAID,

'SHOULD WE EAT THEM HERE, OR TAKE THEM WITH US?'

WELL, I JUST PANICKED!"

 

THAT’S “30” FOR THIS ISSUE
