 Tuesday - late morning

Slept almost 10 hours.  The benefits of fasting, I guess, you get pretty good and fatigued.  Plus I had a horrible headache yesterday which I can still feel the remnants of, but it's not near as bad.  I guess the headache wasn't only tied to heat, it must have been connected to this fasting as well.  It's day 3 and I'm neither feeling good or bad, not terribly hungry but it's there.  Trying to make it 5 days at least for the health benefits.  That's one of the main reasons of doing this, super health benefits if you can last long enough.  That's the hard part, lol, lasting long enough.  The end is worth it, but getting there is tough.

Going to Lowe's today and then over to the property.  I had a tenant's circuit break go on the blink so I stole one from another outlet yesterday since it wasn't being used but I don't intend on leaving it like that.  This guy had suffered all day long without electricity, so as crappy as I felt, I didn't have a choice but to swap those breakers out.

At least I didn't have the added pain of having to go to Lowe's as well.  I'm going to buy 2 of them this time and keep one as a backup, it's really inconvenient many times to have to go to the store to fix something when you know that those things are going to keep breaking.  And in the middle of a hot summer, it's just not something you can let wait, people want their ac working and I don't blame them.  I don't have a magic ball as to when any given breaker is going to go out, but it's notable that it's always the 30 amp breakers, the 50 amp breakers never seem to quit.  

I've got one lot open and it's been "taken" twice, only to have no one show up.  this is getting old and I have been asking for a deposit, but these people were showing up the same day, or so they said, so I didn't force it.  But, the last one, the guy claimed the spot and said he would be there several hours later only to have him bow out of it - and - I had a call after he claimed it from a person looking for a place. This is why I am considering deposits for holding them at all. First come, first served unless you put $100 down. You lose that $100 if you don't show.  

I had another call yesterday but they wanted a pull through and all of those are filled ATM.  

Anyway, if I can stomach it, I may get on the tractor and brush hog the areas up front to have a dozer come through with.  I need to have that all mowed down first, I am told, before they can come in and do their work.  I honestly would rather fast tho and do that for my own health's sake than get this project moving forward.  It takes time to do these things and so I just haven't been in any huge rush.  At all.  If the temps were cooler I"d probably be out there more and longer. 

As yesterday proved, however, staying out in that incredible heat - humidity driven - just takes it out of me.  

I'm still feeling pretty fatigued as it stands.  I just want that lot available for use in case someone calls, if they want 30 amp, it isn't available.  

$760 water bill - 2 months.  Ridiculous and outrageous.  I am on Mark's @$$ to find out why the bill is so high.  I am not there, HE IS.  Get this back down or I am going to have to take actions you may not like. Not something I want to do, but I will if I get shoved into a corner, not even going to mention what that action is, but it would definitely remove that headache out of my life. 

Just losing money now over there. 

Nothing much else, or if there is I can't think of it.  Really feeling it all of a sudden.  I was very glad I had today off, the 3rd day is usually the hardest.

 Sunday - evening Brrrr, it's getting cold.  42 degrees with real feel of 39 at this hour of the day? I'd call that winter, at least...
