 I've got 2 open lots right now, but Sunday it will be down to 1.  Which is good because one dude was only staying a month and at least one other leaving soon enough. This is a far cry better than the 4 open lots I had the other day. Actually, someone is coming in today for one of those lots, but it's only an overnighter.

I don't discount the overnighters, just saying there is nothing reserved on that lot after that.  It's funny how people come tricking in tho. I guess it will just be a constant battle to try and keep the lots full.  I start getting a little edgy once too many of them are empty and 4 empty lots? Is too many.  It's also strange how I was getting so many calls for long term and then all of a sudden, it all dried up - for a while anyway.  

The fickle nature of the business, I guess.  

Well, I've got my ride taking me over to the park in an hour.  I just got out of bed, trying to wake up. Stayed up too late last night trying to deal with taxes and then going and taking them to the post office and after that, deciding I need to stop at the store.  It is also supposed to start raining in a few minutes - that was quite the surprise to see that in the forecast.  No worries, I can work on the interior if the trench gets wet/muddy again.  

Started Keto after 30 plus hours of eating all kinds of garbage.  Wasn't hard to re-start.  It's when you've just eaten whatever for weeks or months is when it's a bit different story to try and restart a pretty restrictive diet.  

Well, this isn't going to be a long entry. I just sitting here enjoying my coffee, thinking about the day and the Lord.  But the lady is coming in 25 minutes to take me over there and I need lunch and drinks made up before she arrives.  

Goals today depend on rain. If it rains, I'll work on the bathroom drywall.  If it doesn't, I'll be in that trench and the goal will be to get that wrapped  up and perhaps even start backfilling it.  The unfortunate part about the sewer setup is there always seems to be something that pops up where I will need a fitting or something and a trip to the store. That's a trip I cannot currently make. It's kind of frustrating to be in the middle of something and find out you don't have everything you need or something you didn't know you needed pops up. Then you have to switch gears and either start working on something else or waste the time driving to Lowe's, getting whatever and coming back. 

I think I have everything, but who knows.  That AC needs installed as it's getting pretty warm.  The insulation will need installed to help with keeping it cool in there.  I could go on and on - but those are the top priorities that need done. The bathroom and AC.  And at some point, needing to make a trip to get a vanity.  That's not today, just saying I need one.  But, I want to be able to advertise a toilet and shower stall asap.  No sink? No worries, wash your hands at the tap outside, lol. Or just go back to your RV and wash your hands - for now anyway.  

I'm not going to tell anyone that, obviously, just a little humor in the sea of things to do.  I think installing that p trap is going to be a PITA and redoing the sewer pipe under the toilet is going to be fun as well. That's trying to get the fall correct so everything actually drains down the pipe, not "let's have a community gathering point before it even reaches the main line" situation where all of that "stuff" accumulates and just - sits there. That is going to be gross if my assessment turns out to be correct. 

Yes, I have extra clothing over there, lmao.  

G'day
