16 gallons spread yesterday of weed killer and that wasn't enough?  No, it wasn't.  My third trip to Walmart I bought 9 more gallons and that should hopefully do the trick today, or at least finish the lots and most of the doggy park.  I'll have to remove fencing in the doggy park to get a tractor in there.  

But, by the time I got that done I was toast. It was hot out there and I was in the direct sunlight for many hours doing the application.  I don't really care about the heat that much, tho, just drink a lot of water.  Now, the heat inside of the shed is a completely different subject.  I haven't installed that AC yet but I may start that today.  I dunno.  It will likely meaning moving the 2x4 that is holding the existing one in there to accommodate for a larger sized unit.  It will be a semi ordeal, but it needs to be done. 

Even after lowering the rates I'm still not getting calls. Although, it is usually closer to the end of any given month where people start looking to switch places.  Let's put it this way: If I don't get some people in by the beginning of next month, I will seriously have to reconsider lowering the rates even more.  What else am I to do? Have a half empty park?  But I will hold out on that temptation for at least a few more weeks and see what happens.  If only I could get a couple of rental units in there....I am still looking. 

My 2cd to last payment hit the bank. I owe $345 on that SUV and it's actually mine. Not, mine but the bank owns it, it's mine. The exterior is in great shape, the interior is okay but the driver's seat either needs replaced or reupholstered.  There is an excellent upholstery place in town.  Of course, it wouldn't be cheap and it also would probably take a few days for them to do it, so no vehicle for a few days.  Yeah, no thanks, at least not right now.  

I do very much like the idea of getting rid of that car payment every month and not getting into another one.  I have enough other payments right now, that will free up some money after I make the final payment.  Of course, instead of helping your credit score, paying off loans show as a closed account and actually hurt your credit score. Yes, I keep tabs on my credit score even tho there isn't much of anything I can do about it right now short of getting a job.  

The grass was always the final hurdle to jump before going back to work.  I knew it would be an ordeal and an ordeal it is.  Not just because it costs money, but the amount of work it entails.  There is the option of simply having a giant gravel park.  They are mostly unappealing and with the amount of weeds on my property, it would be a constant battle.  i intend on killing as much of the weeds with the spray as I possibly can and then hope that after the grass starts to fill in, it will crowd out everything else.  Grass tends to do that.  

Oh, btw, putting that much gravel in instead of grass? At least 15k.  And that doesn't include having to do the doggy park in grass anyway. Who has a gravel dog park? I've never seen one.   

I've given up on a loan for the moment.  It just isn't going to happen with the amount of debt I have and I am facing that reality - for now.  The situation won't change without paying down a good chunk of the debt incurred and that isn't going to happen unless the park fills up and stays that way or the inevitable job hunt starts.  I can't predict the park filling up, finding a job wouldn't be that difficult if my desire for a higher paying job was lowered to something less money but gets me home every night.  They're still 14 hour  a day jobs tho.  Kind of tired of 14 hour a day jobs and staying out on the road all the time, just in case I didn't make that clear through the myriad of posts I've made about it previously lol.

I take that back. My house is still worth a mint in the Phoenix housing market, but selling it means kicking everyone out including Mark. After all of these years, it would be hard to do that.  I could pocket around 70k if I were to go that route. That's deducting 30k for realtor and lowball on the amount the house is actually worth. However, people getting housing loans right now? I dunno about that.  High interest rates are probably locking people out of the housing market.  I think my refi loan was low 3% range.  

Oh, btw, now that gas stoves are being targeted by the Biden administration, what's next? Well, according to the latest news? Gas furnaces.  I can guarantee you that after they say no more gas furnaces, they'll come after the gas water heaters.  Let's see, gas dryers? I'm trying to think of all the gas appliances one could have in one's home.  In other words, welcome to Communist America!  Where big government gets to tell you what kind of appliances you can have in your home! Land of the free, huh? You believe in climate change?  

I watched a video of a scientist putting it into context.  These activists pick and choose which date to use for their fraudulent numbers.  If you go back far enough in time, the temperatures have actually cooled over the centuries and even under 100 years.  These people that are flying around in private jets all over the world to go to these conferences are as fake as prosperity preachers who live in millions of dollars mansions and drive 200k cars around.  I just find it amazing that people are still supporting Biden even tho he is basically walking through your front door and telling you the things you can and cannot have in your own damn house.  

You read accounts of people that have escaped communist nations - China being the worst culprit I think but certainly North Korea is right up there, just China has a lot more people - and they warn us of what is going on right now  in America and cite Mao as an indicator of what the "progressive left" - Communists - are doing and wanting to do in America.  It's glaringly obvious and the left doesn't even deny it anymore, they want Communism.  Property rights go right out the window and I am not just referring to land.  ALL of your property, your money, your house, your cars, everything is controlled by the state.  

Look at the endless tirades against 2A. And that the Constitution is a "worthless piece of paper".  And the desire to either eliminate the SCOTUS, pack it with more activist judges or impeach judges that dare make a decision that is against the left' will.  It's coming to a head sooner or later. I don't know when, but they will cross a line in the sand.  Look, the left is attempting to design elections laws so that they basically will stay in power forever.  It isn't just one thing here or there that is being done to arrive at Communism, it is a carefully thought out plan.  Infiltrate the schools with teachers and propaganda curriculum that are in line with their theories.  Get rid of God and the Bible - they've done a pretty good job of that already.  Fill the local governments with progressive "leaders". Get Congress and the WH filled up with communists ideology.  

It's already here, they are just in the beginning stages of getting it implemented.  I dare say most Republican congresspeople are either RINO's or career driven or cowards and won't stand up to any of this.  You get the few that will take  a stand and they are labeled as extreme right MAGA Republicans.  They label everything with a stigma and try to force it down American's throats.  

Well whatever.  I'm fixing to leave here, I need to get these last 9 gallons applied and then do some other stuff over there. 

G'day
