Uhh, so these people.  They just pulled in after I got home.  They didn't know which lot they needed - they signed up for lot 11 - and then asked if we have a bath house.  No, we are in the process of building one.  Ohh, that might be a problem, our water heater just went out.  I'm sorry, we are building one but it isn't completed yet.  She went off about how your site says you have one.  I don't want to argue with customers, but my site definitely does not say we have a bath house.  It does say we have a laundry facility coming soon, it doesn't even mention a shower or toilet.  

I just looked at the site again to make sure the web designer didn't add something I didn't know about.  Nope, it's not on there. I'm not advertising things I don't have.  Give a - month probably at the rate this is going - and I will have one in there.  

I know you can't please everyone, but I'm not trying to please people that I don't have any facilities for and make no claims that I have such facilities. I'm telling ya, these people better not even think about leaving a negative review over something that doesn't even exist.  They can find some other place to stay if they don't like it there, I will just cancel the reservation, wish that they hadn't left because the money would be helpful and move on.  

I'm days away, I think, from even having the laundry going.  I'm thinking days, I got quite a lot done today regardless of the fatigue. I can only work so long before my brain starts to feel like it's frying and I have to stop.  It was near 5 hours straight.  

Whatever the case, I'm picking the boys up at the bus stop and dragging them over there with me to sort this out.  If those people want to leave, who am I to stop them?  I care, and I will show that I care, but that's entirely up to them. Better yet, get a water heater, install it and problem solved.  That's what I would do, anyway.  There are RV parts houses in Longview, they can get one if they really want to. I have no idea why they are here - they are staying for 6 days - or were anyway - but good luck finding a spot anywhere else near town.  Any place decent is booked up. 

It's $200 worth of stay is why I would like to do whatever I can to encourage them to stay.  I am already at discounted prices, but I guess I could bring it down more for the inconvenience - even tho there is nothing stated about having a bath house.  I know I need one, hence the idea that I am working on building out the shed. But that darn shed is a pain in the @$$ and it's been ruffling my feathers.  Everything has to be difficult.  

I'm giving no date or even approximate date when this thing will be finished. When I start thinking about all the stuff I will have to do after I finally get the laundry done to put in a shower and a toilet? Lol.

I'll have to frame out a room and hang a door, get the shower stall, install all of that including the drain which will be very much a PITA (pain in the @$$) plus the toilet - another drain underneath the shed, install more water line, a light fixture and the walls are going to have to have drywall installed.  Not to mention installing insulation and an AC unit.

Well that explains that.  After that lady called, I ran over with the boys.  She has 3 kids -with her - one of them goes to ETBU and does some sort of acrobatic dance stuff there and there is a competition which starts tonight. The husband was busy leveling the trailer and getting the their water heater to work - turns out it wasn't broken after all.  Or something minor wrong with it.  They were real nice but I did affirm - politely of course - that there is no bath house listed on the website but we are working on getting one installed. Which is the honest truth.  I just prioritized the laundry first.  

They didn't sound like they were going to be moving anywhere else and the man seems to be of the handyman type - fix it himself type of dude - so I think they may be staying. I didn't ask specifically, that's entirely up to them.  What I will be doing is charging the rest of their stay to their credit card. 

Since the family appears to be very active just watching them for the few minutes I was there, I suggested they try the walking trails back in the woods.  The dad looked and said oh? Yea, it's about a thousand feet back there, there are signs.  Oh great! The 2 youngest immediately said they were going for a walk!  With the family doggy!  yayy! More than just me back there with the boys and my dog!  I built the thing so others could experience it as well. I think it's beautiful back there and lots to see. I left and watched them walking - more like trotting - down the driveway to get to the trail. 

So what am I doing tomorrow? Well, I have a riding mower lined up to buy, hopefully it is a go. Been talking back and forth with the dude the last few hours he says fine, no one else has committed to come at any set time tomorrow.  Well no kidding! The thing has been for sale for several weeks now.  It just is the best one available and even if I have to drive a bit to get it, as long as it is as good as they say it is, I'm getting a good mower that I shouldn't have to fix the first time I try to use it.

I will endeavor to mow the grass if I get the machine and I may try to get more done on the shed. Really depends on how I sleep tonight....

And with that?  Time to go watch some tv.
