Cheri and I were at Wal-Mart a little after 7:00 am this morning doing our grocery shopping. It is a great time to getter done; there weren’t very many people out and about that early. We didn’t have to dodge any shoppers and no accidents with other shopping carts. It was almost fun (can’t believe I said that). We also use Wal-Mart for our ATM service and we needed to replenish our cash as we used all we had to pay the guy that did the painting on the truck and needed more today to pay him for the rest of the painting he was going to do today. He was going to be here at 10:30 am to finish the truck and he still wasn’t here at noon. So I called him and got his voice mail and left a message for him to call me. He was going to clean up and paint the running boards, so I worked to get them removed. I had to heat a couple of the bolts to get them to come out. I went to Lowe’s to see about getting some new bolts to replace the ones that got damaged when I remove them, no luck at Lowe’s. So I have decided to wait until Paul and I go to the car show and swap meet Sunday and see if I can get what I want there. I also checked into ordering new wheel covers for the truck. All I need are the front ones as a few years ago I scraped a large rock with the right front wheel and put a large dent in it and then this summer I hit a cooler that was laying in the highway that I couldn’t avoid  with the left front wheel and put a big dent in it. So as long as I got all the stone chips fixed I need the new wheel covers to make the truck look new again. Later this afternoon I see Paul washing his truck so I went up and talked to him and Jack came over and told me he got a call from the painter saying that his truck broke down and wouldn’t be here today. He didn’t have my number so that is why he didn’t call me. Cheri worked all day on her pillow project, looking better each day. The rest of my day was doing odd jobs. We played dominos with Paul and Bev this evening and we guys were the big winners.
