Third day in a row to get rain.
This is the third day in a row that we have gotten measurable rain. We got about 0.15 inches of rain this morning. Not just a terrible amount but it will help keep everything watered and green for awhile longer. The rain forecast for tomorrow also looking promising with a more than the usual chance for rain. Looking ahead more it now looks like we might be in for a few more wet days in the couple of weeks to come. Still going to be warm to warmer during the day but the night time temperatures are slowly dropping. Probably not enough yet to run the heater in the morning especially since the extreme cold front is not going to make it here. I guess it is stopping somewhere between here and Dallas because it is suppose to get really cold there. Gary said maybe in the 40's. Now that is really cold for this time of year. For here and I guess that is probably true for Dallas too.
My lawn company came today. Kind of late in the day but they seem to always come this late on Tuesday so I shouldn't be concerned. They do a good job and are just here and gone. Next week if I am right about their schedule they will come on Monday. Don't know why they have such a schedule though. I guess I could do the lawn if it got really critical but it would probably kill me. I doubt my lawn mower would start without replacing the carburetor. I do think it is a common one and I could get one from eBay as they seem to have everything. I am sure the gas has long since turned solid so would have to clean that too and all the fuel lines would probably need to be replaced. Cracked and brittle by now I would think. I have had it forever. I see a few people using electric lawnmowers. Have to see them because they really are quiet. If I ever did start mowing again I would get one. Gary has one. Just checked and there is far more selection of electric mowers than I thought there would be. Plenty to chose from if I ever decide I need one.
Just put up some project work today from a project I worked on yesterday and really didn't do anything else. I think it was Jasmine I burned for incense today and not a eBay day at all. Did pay my credit card bill which is by far my biggest bill as just about every bill I can charge to that does get charged to it. And I also checked to see if I got paid today and nothing yet. Will keep checking.
Still thinking about how much longer work is going to keep me on their records. The last time I really charged any time was in February. With office changes I really don't have an office anymore. Not really sure how I could retire now. I guess I will just let things stay as they are. Probably get to keep the computer. Don't really think they would want it back.
Gold continues to stay pretty close to its trading range of the last few days. Crude has fallen back a good bit. Don't really know why but maybe it is because the summer driving season is now considered to be over. Don't really know. I am sure there is an analysis as to why somewhere.
Still nothing really on the rocket launch schedule. Have to keep watching it.
Twist was a surprise lap visitor today. I felt bad because I could only let him stay for a short time. Nothing from Fozzy today. Yesterday it was three times which I think is a record.
Did my usual truck start and run today. I do believe it does run better on the fresh gas. Does seem to idle better. Doing that does seem to break up the day to and gets me outside. I heard the geckos for sure tonight. And I know the mosquitoes must be out too. When I open the front door this morning I think I saw about two of them. Don't think any got inside though because I haven't seen one tonight.
Got two junk calls today.
Haven't missed any electric bill payments in the last six months. Get this one often.
Good-bye. That was it. Nothing else said on the junk call. Just answered and it finally said Good bye. So don't really know what that was about.
Nothing really on the TV viewing pleasure front. Don't think there is a new season of The Curse of Oak Island. They usually come on Tuesday night but nothing. Mostly watching YouTube videos.
Not really expecting an eBay in the next several days. Have some items but they haven't shown to be shipped yet. Did place an order today for some supplements. And added one item to my HEB Delivery list. Got the car back on charge tonight.
I think that is going to do it for tonight.
