I pray that everyone said a prayer for or veterans and service men and women today, if not than take time now and do it as it helps our country to be free. Plus add them to your daily prayer list. Today was one of those days that you like to forget. It started when I got up this morning, I couldn’t seem to get my motor started. My first project was to fix the shelf in the shed that came down due to having too much weight on it. I got it back up temporary and need to get some new hangers for it (no it wasn’t one that I built). Then I cleaned the windshield and the bugs off the front of the motorcycle, while I was pushing it back into the barn the kick stand went up and I ended up dropping the bike. I had to get Cheri to help me get it back up. Then I checked the van and see it is still leaking oil and while trying to check and see where it was leaking from I found all the wires that go to the injectors had been cut and splice back together. One of the wires broke and I had a hard time trying to get reconnected. I had a lot of work done on the van a couple of years ago and that had to be when it was done, another reason why I don’t go to that place for repairs anymore. I took Grandma for her 1:25 pm doctor’s appointment and she got a got report. After I dropped her off I headed to the repair shop to get the van fixed. It was leaking oil from the valve cover gasket had was replaced last Friday. Apparently the gasket didn’t get seated correctly. I know that it something that can happen as I have changed them myself and know it is a tough job. They gave me a ride home and said they would come and get me when it was done. When I got home I decide to do some power washing on the driveway. I had a problem with the power washer the other day and thought it was the circuit breaker on the cord. Well it turns out to be something in the power washer, so much for power washing the driveway. I think God was testing me today; I did get a little depressed but never lost my temper. I didn’t see much of Cheri today as she spent most of the day in her sewing room working on a new quilt project with music playing, I could see she was enjoying herself. On a good note, this evening we went out to eat with Mike and Pam at Manolos Ristorante, another good meal. After we eat we came back to our place to play a game of Hand, Knee, and Foot. Pam and Cheri won as Mike and I couldn’t seem to get the cards. Yes it is Monday night and Cheri had to watch Dancing with the Stars and if you have been watching you know Cheri was upset with the results.
