RV gray water is full

The RV’s gray water tank is full. This is the tank that showers and sinks go to, nothing to icky. I think it filled up quickly from the shower problem and then a lot of testing of the shower. And some washing of dishes too. I’m going to drain it into the front tree area […]

Done with Sphinx!

This morning I finished “Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy.” I enjoyed it all the way to the end and I with they would make a sequel. I doubt a sequel will ever be made because I think they released it during the holiday rush and it got buried under all the big name games and […]

RV all better

Drove it over the hill, got there and they said: “We didn’t expect you until 4PM.” “Huh,” I say? “The guy said come over any time.” “He told us 4PM.” “Well he didn’t tell that to me.” They said we migh thave to wait an hour before they looked at it since they weren’t scheduled […]

So after defeating the Geb Queen I was given more curse stones and went back to playing the Mummy. After I came back to controlling Sphinx I didn’t bother to save right then because I didn’t expect another boss fight within 30 minutes of the last one. So I had to do the mummy part […]

Another loose wire?

The scooter ran great this morning excet for two moments of what felt like the motor cutting out. I’m thinking there is still another loose wire in there that I need to track down. They were too fast to tell if it was the entire bike losing power or not. I’m thinking just the motor […]

Scooter is fixed!

I went to OSH and got the longest philips-head screwdriver I could find that still had a small enough tip to work the average screw. I got home and unscrewed the screw that is supposed to hold the wire in with no problem. Then we ate dinner. After dinner I determined that after I strip […]

Intermittent electrical problem is no longer intermittent

For quite some time there has been a problem where over a bump the scooter will momentarily lose power. At first I thought I was imagining things but then I found it was real. Last week it cut out for a good 30 seconds on my way home and because it was a long time […]

2nd night in the trailer

The cat was all “meow meow meow meow meow meow meow…” until I turned all the light out. He was also tryign to rub against me and purr. I know he’s freaked out if he’s coming to me for love. Dogs had to go out at 4AM and we all got back to sleep easily […]
