 Friday - night

My manager calls and then texts me at a bit after 5 this morning, left a message on voice mail and says there are start up problems at the plant, bad resin coming from Lufkin, load canceled, please call me as soon as you get this.  I turn my ringer off at night. I got the message at 5:30 am, was going to get up to shower and get ready for the driving day.  \

Well, I was informed nothing, they didn't know when.  So, he calls back later, we've got you going out tomorrow.  Sure thing.  He calls again.  They've switched you to Sunday, they won't be ready tomorrow.  

And again.  Well, we are going to switch you to Monday and haul out of  (a town up there), I'm going to have local guys doing it, etc, lengthy explanation why, I'm guessing because yea, I am not working.  So that's where it stands atm.  Monday.  I don't even know what time, they keep changing it, I'll check the load time in Lufkin after I am sure I am actually going down there.  

I was over at the Park today mowing the rest of the lawns and then on the riding mower mowing the front of the property and the triangle area when you get to where the RV park is.  The area behind the trailers on the west side is still good, everything has slowed down growing because it's not weed or bermuda grass growing season. What I am cutting is the rye grass I planted. Not sure what kind of grass out front, but it's still growing, slowly, but it hasn't stopped like the other grass has.  

The friend of James that install septic systems seems to be a no go.  He wants plans from an engineer.  I know the state imposes a lot of restrictions on septic, the contractor I used has their own engineer. I sort of figured anyone that does septic would either have their own or have a person you can contact.  I haven't heard back from the man after asking him if he knows of one, so I'll take that as a no and just stick with the original contractor.  I mean, the money saved on the install with this other guy will likely be lost with also paying an engineer.

I'm nowhere near being able to do a septic install, I was just looking at any options that I might have left off the table. If I magically come into money beyond working and business revenues, I'll be doing that first - or - some sort of cabin - or - a glamping tent.   

Whatever, that's not now so I'm just going to put that on a shelf and forget about it. Nahh, psyche, lol.  No way I can just forget about it, it's the next step.  

Well it's getting late.

 Friday late-morning Typical morning when there is no work.  It was, I should say, until the new guy called.  "There's nothing wron...
