Sunday - mid morning

I was just informed that today is Saturday.  This came about because I had just taken a shower and I said I didn't want to go to church smelling like dirt, such as you (the kid I'm talking to) do.  Well church isn't until tomorrow why are you doing that now?  Today is Saturday!

I'm thinking, am I in the Twilight Zone? Because I'm 100% sure today is Sunday and yesterday was definitely Saturday. "uhh, how could it be Saturday? You spend the entire day laying around on your butt playing games, literally all day long. If today was Saturday, that means you stayed home from school yesterday to play your Switch".  I then looked at my phone and showed him it clearly stating it is Sunday.

Oh, I guess I was wrong about the days then.  Now he is all upset because we aren't going to Applebee's after churh today.  It's just a thing we do that he absolutely loves.  He had this look on his face and I dug it out of him. Yeah, we're going somewhere else to eat, it's someone's birthday and it's a surprise party for him.  Oh.  That didn't help him, so I just had to tell him sometimes life throws us curveballs and we have to learn to adapt and adjust. Then...he was banging on the keyboard.  What are you doing?  This is what you do when you're sitting here!  Yes, but I'm actually typing out words, you are just putting up a bunch of gibberish lmao.  I informed him he could learn how to type like that in - I dunno when they teach that now? Seems important enough they would start teaching the keyboard in middle school?  I said high school and that I had taken 4 years  of it.  

It's actually quite late in the morning, I didn't go to sleep until midnight last night. I have been treating these 3 days off as if it were a staycation, sort of anyway.  Just binge watching shows on Netflix and doing the minimal amount of things necessary to keep things rolling. The only new thing was an overnighter calling yesterday asking about a place to stay overnight. Yes, so and so forth, they actually showed up, paid cash to the park host and I have no idea if they're still there or not.  

So that's pretty much it.  Church, party, might stop at the park and home. Correction, definitely stop at the park.  Gonna get up on the trailer and make sure there are no flakes laying in there.  It happens even after they wash them out. If there is, I can just sprinkle water inside, get the flakes down into the drain pipe and done.  

That write up for expanding the park isn't done yet.  It's a lot of work, yes, but it's been quite a while since we met and they said they'd come up with a price.  Perhaps it doesn't matter, the park isn't even full right now?  I'm feeling a bit - not sure the word. Not really pressured, my expenses are easily covered by the lots filled in there and even if the place were completely empty, everything is paid for excepting the land itself and that payment is quite low atm.  

Just want the place to be full,  I guess.  I really should have gotten out there yesterday with all the free time and filled a few holes up in the driveway. You do the things you can do.  I've watched a lot of episodes of Bar Rescue and one of the most common things you see at the beginning of the show when Taffer is walking in there to give the bar owner/s heck is the bar is quite disgustingly filthy.  Like, cockroaches, black filth, dust, dirt everywhere.  Even if you don't have the money to do serious upgrades to the bar, you can definitely get off your lazy @$$ and clean the place up.  I personally don't care if a place is a dive bar but it has to be a clean place that doesn't look and smell like a landfill or sewage treatment plant.  

My park is not dirty but there are some things in the driveway I could temporarily fix. The real fix would be getting a dozer in there, blading the entire driveway and then bringing in 6-8 truckloads of fresh gravel.  I don't have the money for that, well I could cover a couple of truckloads, but what's the point when the surface of the driveway itself needs a blade taken to it, smooth it all out and get it even.  Then dump gravel on it. I can't rent a dozer for I don't have the credentials, ie: experience, to operate one.  It figures the company would rent one out to someone that has no idea what they're doing, that customer destroys the engine and walaah. Tens of thousands of dollars to rebuild a cat engine. Ruin it for everyone, in other words. I would definitely have the thing delivered and get it done.  I can learn any earth moving equipment, I already know how to operate trackhoes, backhoes and graders.  And bobcats.  

The other thing I will definitely be doing is dumping copious amounts of rye grass whenever we get a good stretch of rain.  We're in such a dry spell that the county has imposed a burn ban.  No fires of any kind excepting in grills.  Not even barrel fires are allowed right now.  The grass is brown, a good indicator of the dry conditions and I'm not about to start watering it, it would cost far too much money.
