One Car Gone, One Car Fixed, One Car on Jacks

We sold my car on Friday to our neighbor. Since we didn't want to put $1600 into a new transmission, we decided to try to recoup some of the money we paid for the car. We were able to get some of the money back, and we sold it "as is", and he knows it has transmission problems. ONE CAR GONE!

Corby replaced the water pump in his car this morning, and so far, it's running good. (Keep your fingers crossed!) ONE CAR FIXED!

Kaleb's car is the one up on jacks. The service people at the auto parts store suggested a few things that Corby should check before he bought a fuel pump, since the pump is $279!!!! So Corby, and 2 of our neighbors, our handyman/friend Paul, and the neighbor who bought the car, Tom - have been working to get to the fuel pump for the last few hours. Once they got everything checked out, they determined it IS the fuel pump, so Corby will have to go buy one tomorrow. Hopefully between the 3 of them they can get the car back up and running in the next day or two. ONE CAR ON JACKS!

VACATION

On vacation for a few days (return to work on Thursday)...here's where I wish I was... I plan on enjoying some peace and quiet...and possibly, if I get motivated, getting some cleaning and organizing done in the office area of the basement. We'll see if that motivation arrives (it's not here yet)... Good news for Park City residents...recycling came to town the first of January. We are charged $4.00 month (added onto our already high water bill); but it has lowered the price of our trash pickup. The company P.C. contracted with has a much lower price than the company we use. Our company matched the price, so our trash bills went down (considerably) AND we get to recycle. We can recycle almost all our plastics, newspapers, cardboard, aluminum cans, cereal boxes, glass, motor oil, etc. We've got two big bags to set out tomorrow. Just doin' our part for the environment. We are without hot water right now...our hot water heater needs a new thermo-couple? It's a fair

Terrible Day

I'm not going to go into a lot of detail here, but suffice it to say that I had a TERRIBLE day at work! I made a huge mistake costing the company some revenue, and I feel awful! I certainly didn't need anyone to get on my butt, because I was kicking myself for the better part of the day. I know, I know, I'm human, but this was a BIG human mistake! I hate to admit that I'm human! HATE TO MAKE MISTAKES - ESPECIALLY BIG ONES! Okay, that's it. I'm having a margarita and trying to relax now. I'm done with being human for a while!
