Well, we caught the mouse. Not sure if we have any more but we’re ready for them. In the morning I headed out and the truck dashboard said, “service fuel filter”. This was odd as I just had the truck serviced a week before. Turns out they forgot to change the fuel filter which will actually slow the truck down if not replaced. So off to Denver I went. I made it down by 10 and they had it done a little after 11. They were super apologetic and paid for my gas but still, ugh. I grabbed a loaner car while they did the work and dropped Ty off some cash as his debit card was hacked and we’re waiting on a new one. I also hit Whole Foods in Cherry Creek for some fresh fish. By 1:30 I was home. Next up I finished cleaning up outside. I went to the cardboard recycle center and dropped all the cardboard from when the movers brought Dixie’s stuff that I took to the dump the day before. Then it was off to the hardware store to buy some weather stripping to fix the door between the dog run and the garage. With the cold temps coming, all the critters from mice to bugs are trying to find shelter.
Good to have all that done as today and tomorrow we could get two inches of rain. Of course Lori’s windshield didn’t arrive so now we’re two weeks out on that. I’m driving her to Frisco today for work and hopefully she’ll get a ride home. If not, I’ll go get her.
My back has been sore and sort of out, but I’ll hit the gym on the way home. Lori’s friend Michelle arrives Friday and leaves Monday.
Lots of crime these days. You have to be aware people. The latest outage at the grocery store is corn starch, can’t find it anywhere. We’re in pretty good shape but there’s always something you don’t think of like vacuum cleaner bags or Lori’s favorite go to hair spray. The way I look at it is we’re going to use all these things anyhow so why not buy extra now. It’ll just save me money down the road. The trick is to only buy what you use.
Ok, that’s it, we need to leave around 6:30 as Lori has a patient at 8. I think Marty’s dad passed away last night in Montana as he was unconscious and had a DNR and hadn’t had any water in 3 days. He’s in his 90’s with dementia. They’ve been up there since last Thursday. We feel bad for him. He and Melanie are flying home tonight. James has a concert in Central Park this Friday, so he’s headed out for a few days.
Fall starts in a few days, get ready! God Bless.
