 Thursday - 7:45 am

Taylor is going on the radio this morning, lol, this should be entertaining.  She is doing a section for her work to get people to sign up.  Probably about the best idea she's had yet. The program is free, it's for prescshool children to start getting the hang of school and learning.  I'm sure she'll do well, I'll be listening to it, already have the radio on online.

Somehow, I erroneously thought today was the 9th.  It is not, that would be tomorrow. Just looking for that trolling motor to get here.  Not that I will jump right on it, not even in the slightest.

There have been some - interesting - side effects to this antibiotic and it isn't exactly pleasant.  Just this weird feeling, I've had it before on other drugs, not really explainable, not a great feeling I can tell ya that.  I took another one a little while ago.  As much as I don't want to, I also want to get rid of this nonsense and get on with life.  

The new guy is moved in, paid up and then, I realized, I have this problem with electricity over there once again. Not that any signs are showing that there is a problem and it is already August, so that's good I guess.  Meaning, we've gone through 2 of the hottest months of the year without any issues.

Many, many hours later.  In fact, night time.  I am attempting to get the courage up to take one of these prostate pills, but reading the potential side effects, ooh la laaahh.  There is a list of 20 of them and some of them do not look pleasant at all.  Fainting?  Priapism? I had to look that word up, good Lord I don't need that.  Nausea, weakness, dizziness...and on and on.  Like, with what I'm already going through I don't need to add any of that to the list. 

I think I'll wait until these antibiotics are gone.  The story on this  prostate medication is that it softens the area around the prostate up so the tube with urine will have the pressure relieved off of it so urine passes through more easily.  The statement after that says that it does not reduce the size of the prostate and that it is only a temporary relief and that at some point, surgery may be necessary.  

I don't even know if it's a prostate issue (tho it probably is) and I have an appointment with a urologist on Tuesday, it may be that I just won't even take that medication and find out what the doc has to say about all of this after he does whatever he has to do to figure out what's going on.  I would very much not like to have to experience the "finger" exam.  Some have stated that I'll probably need a colonoscopy.  

These are bad words, like extremely vulgar language, I don't need any of that, lol. I have, at the end of the day, decided that I will go through whatever they want me to to find out what the deal is.  I still don't see how an enlarged prostate is going to cause pain on the side of your belly in the abdomen area.  Then again, I'm not a doctor, but I will be asking the doc that stuff when the appointment occurs. It's 35 miles away, there are no urologists in this town, apparently they all decided to move to Longview. 

I have not been to the RV park in 2 plus days now.  Allen is still there, he is still handling things, I am good.  However, this new dude that moved in?  Turns out his trailer is a pile of trash.  And has electrical problems. The roof is caving in, the interior is falling apart, etc etc etc. The stuff that happens when a roof leak occurs on a trailer and it isn't dealt with immediately. Over time? It destroys the interior of the trailer. That's not guess work, in this area, with all the rain we have, it WILL destroy the interior. The floor will fall apart and you have a worthless pile of junk.

So, this dude is wanting to bring in yet another trailer...not so fast buddy.  He wants to live in this other trailer he is borrowing from whoever while he fixes the trailer he already has.  No, no and no.  Allen called me earlier, told me I was on speakerphone and the dude can hear everything I'm saying.  All well and fine, I made it clear that I am not operating a trailer trash park.  There is no nice way to say that, so just let it out.  He replied that he didn't know the thing was in such bad condition - apparently they just bought that trailer sight unseen for cheap.  

I don't really believe him, but I told him I can't have that stuff in my park.  So, we left it with him needing to get and send us pics of this other trailer. All sides, please.  I usually have people send me pics anyway, I was distracted with this situation going on with my body and wasn't really thinking clearly about it.  On older rigs, I want pics.  It's really going to be a pain when Allen starts working and I am going to have to go back to dealing with everything.  It's just something I am glad to be taking a break from, but I know that isn't a forever break.  

My manager hasn't called me in 2 days and frankly. I don't really want him to call. He said last week that there is the option of taking time off.  I am taking time off without asking for it. This is the deal where the plant is shut down for 2 weeks for maintenance and repairs and the work is shifted to another plant.  He hasn't called, he probably has the situation covered.  I dunno, but I don't have a lot of energy right now, one of the side effects of this antibiotic.  I just shiver at the thought of taking even more drugs that will compound that effect.  

I literally did nothing today.  I never left the house.  I am going over to the park tomorrow to collect some money, I doubt I will be staying long.  I want to see this trailer tho.  Is it really that bad?  Lol, I'm sure it is, I have seen countless trailers with severe water damage, they all look the same. Falling apart, roofs caving in, interiors completely trashed.

With that? I am calling this quits.  Watch some tv and try to get some sleep.  I did watch some news today, however, just a little, I can't deal with that nonsense right now.  Kamala finally gave a "bit of a press conference" in answering questions after getting off of AF2, I am assuming was the plane she was on.  She is still saying that Trump is afraid to debate her. I just laugh at the preposterousness of such a stupid statement.  There is nothing further from the truth and I am sure she is well aware that what she is saying is completely false and therefore, she is lying through her teeth.

But, that's what politicians do a lot of: Lying.  

G'nite.
