We know we back in school now. This is the first of many little breaks that the schools have. Javalina, and Wife have the day off, so it was a long weekend for them. I am working, because I am greedy. I was told I had a choice because the holiday is on Monday and my workweek starts on Monday night. Usually, there isn't much work, so I don't mind showing up.
We talked of doing this and that, we almost headed up to the coast to see some lots, but I decided that was a bad idea. I don't want to fall in love with some spot I am not planning on buying for another year or two. Who's to say it would still be available? Plus, with a looming hurricane in the Atlantic and headed yet again to Florida, do I want something a hurricane might take away from me?
Boy showed up sometime Sunday afternoon from his latest comic convention, I went down for my afternoon nap at 3:00pm and he was here at 5:30pm, when I woke. We chatted about his trip for a bit, how the Kubone hat/helmet was a complete hit as countless people stopped them to try and take pictures with them.. He said this would be the last convention for awhile and I hope so. He really needs to focus on his classes and finish that out. I can see the degree on the boy, but it doesn't count until the school sees it.
I decided to accept that we have an old fence that needs work and I went and bought more pickets, even though I replaced about 15 now. I bought another 5 and they go fast. Two more had already fallen plus there are a handful that are broken but still screwed in tight. I replaced the most important looking ones as the HOA has a hard on for my fence right now. I plan on replacing the fence, but at my schedule, not theirs. I can do the work, but I am not doing it in 100 degree heat. It'll be done maybe in the spring before the humidity gets ugly.
Staying in the back yard, I have been ignoring the pool for sometime, just as I wrote that a baby squirrel fell into the pool making waves and splashing which Wife noticed. We went outside to see it climb out from a hose and start climbing back up the palm tree from which it fell out of. They squeek pretty loud for their size. The pool water has been a light green most of the summer, I just hate going out there and dealing with it when nobody cares to get in. Ehh, a new fill up of chlorine pucks and running the pump a couple days and it should clean right up. I just need to spend the five minutes geting it going.
And finally, my brother in law talked to a realtor friend of his and said we could put our land up for $19,000. I am including the RV, mostly because I don't want to deal with it anymore. If anything, I'll sell to my nephew for $1000, I just don't want any loose ends right now. You too can have it for $1000, just so you know.
