 Thursday afternoon

I woke up feeling rather miserable this morning. I think it's just the gloomy weather we have been having and 3 days worth of constant, non-stop raining.  Reminds me of my 3 month stint in Seattle, where it literally rained every day I was there.

But, I had to get the glue up there, get it off and get home.  Yes, it was raining this morning, the forecast called for an end to it late this morning.

And thankfully, yes! The rain has not only stopped, there is a decent amount of clear blue sky and the sun is shining bright! This makes me very happy, really it does.  I like a little rain, not so much rain that it starts affecting everything you are doing.  

The glue flowed out quickly today, was empty in less than an hour, I was thankful to get out of there and get headed home.  I did look for those tires/wheels and the brake drum, I never saw any of it.  

My driveway is fairly well destroyed in about a 100 foot swath of it.  I am so tempted to get that tractor with the box attachment, but what if it doesn't work? Then I've wasted over $300 for nothing.   So I'll wait until tomorrow and see if the contractor can give me a price before making any decisions.  

Anyway I'm tired and I am very likely going to take a nap here quick. The house is empty besides cats, the dogs I put outside as soon as I got him, it's a beautiful day, finally, they can spend the rest of the day out there until night time.  They have been holed up in the house for days - they don't like the rain and will camp out at the back door. We just leave them in in weather like this, they are both fully house trained and never pee on the floor or furniture.  

I have 2 days off now, going back to work on Sunday.  I parked the truck at the front of the driveway regardless. It's a mud pit back there and it is going to take at least a couple of days of drying before I'll even think about driving that truck back there. My parking spot is just water and mud.   It's kind of an ugly site to see that truck parked up there like that, I have no choice.  It's there or find a pay to park place. Screw that and if people don't like it, I can't help them.                                                              

Enough of this. I have laundry to do as well.
