Afternoon, everyone..
Well, the flooring is completed, except for trim and a couple other odds and ends, and it looks fantastic.. cherrywood flooring matches my computer furniture perfect,, looks great in the kitchen and hallway.. and with the new black appliances,, guess the next thing on the agenda, will be new cabinets,, or new windows and doors.. the sliding glass door leaks like a sieve, and the front door isnt much better,, also, want ladder installed in the garage to the attic, to make it easier to get up and down, instead of climbing up a rickety ladder lol..
But the flooring looks absotively fantastic.. Im very pleased,, especially, since I get parts to take back, and, money back, and I forgot to get my veterans discount (10%) at lowes.. Ive looked at the receipt, and they didnt give it to me, though they did find a few other things to discount, to get it to what they quoted me.. but they forgot the veteran discount, so Im going to hit them up for that first.. lol. though I paid cash for the flooring and labor, I wouldnt care if they applied the money to the Lowes charge,, which we used for the appliances,, then I can pay them off a couple months earlier than expected.
Worked on the Rv a few days ago,, when it was warm.. now its cold again.. 33 degrees and not looking good for several more days,,brrrrr.. but the generator is working fine,, I had bought one of those port o power things to jump start it,, and that works fine, the engine appears to be running fine.. probably should have the generator serviced, oil changed and filters, just to have it checked out.. its putting out power,, I used a vacuum cleaner in the RV the other day, off of one of the outlets, was a surprise finding the port o sucker in the RV, stuck in a cubby hole.. didnt even know it was there.. book keeps saying there is a furnace in it, but I havent really looked for it yet. only heater I seen, other than the front heater/w the A/C... the main A/C for the compartment, the rooftop unit, doesnt appear to work,, I figured out, that you have to plug in the internal plug, into the output from the generator and have the generator running,, or run 120v to the RV and plug it in.. either way, when I tried cooling it down, it bogged the generator down, til it quit.. an the heater unit on it, is to just take the chill off, not actually heat the rv...
I really need to just take the thing to the RV place, and have them check it all out, fill and flush the tanks, and fill again,, and then top off the LP gas... and then make sure the hot water heater (6gal) is working,, the refrigerator runs off A/C. D/C and or LP gas.. and see what its going to cost me to fix the air conditioner,, hope it isnt replacement, as that is nearly 1000 dollars,, and I aint got it now,, least after the last 3 visits to the casino.. but will have money again next month,, and things will be better,, only have a week to go.. lol,,
Today is my daughter, amanda's birthday,, 40 years old.. The night she was born, I must have called every 20-30 minutes to see if she was here yet (no, we didnt know back then what "it" would be. lol,, I was in the US Navy at the time, in Long Beach California,, my ship was in modified drydock, and no where to sleep on board, , so we slept in the barracks, on the base...Finally, Mother told me to go on to bed, and they would call me,, looking back, that must have been a huge phonebill I had left Mother with, and me only making 100 bucks a month. But, Amanda finally made it here, and pretty much has been a pain in my ass since.. lol,, not really, though, there have been some times.
Nana is home today, and has spent pretty much the whole day in the bedroom,, coming out for coffee, and something to eat.. pretty much what Amanda has done too.. lol,, I set a roast out for supper,, but doesnt look like its going to get fixed tonight.. with the workers here,, I didnt want to be fixing things for supper,, while they were still working,, last night, I was gonna cook hotdogs,, but Nana said she was fixing tuna,, and that was pretty good.. though, with 6 cans, there was only enough left to snack on, or maybe one sandwich..
Think maybe I will start with fried taters and onions, and then figure out the main course,, lol.. I could do chicken soup.. or chili,, guess either of those would work.. and have it ready in no time.. hmmm,, maybe that isnt a bad idea, with it as cold as it is..
Better get busy figuring out what it will be,, lol,, so talk to yall again soon
Happy Farming
