Goings On

I posted about my brief encounter with a deer over on The Rundown, which left me without a car. And, of course, I stayed offline all day yesterday waiting for people who were supposed to come by and help me fix it to call - and they eventually did - at about 12:30 at night, to say they’d “fallen asleep” or couldn’t find the part, etc.

And I think I may be coming down with whatever it is that has been going around here lately. I got sick for a day or two last week (well, two Thursdays ago now) but thought I’d shaken it. Then I watched a neighbor’s kid while she went to the doctor’s the other day and I think I caught it again.

And, of course, now it’s raining. Hasn’t rained more than an inch all summer, so it will probably choose today - the one day I need to be outside under the hood of the car - to pour. Either way, I lost an entire day’s worth of work, not to mention that I haven’t gotten one damned thing done around this house either. So, rain or shine, I have just a ton of stuff to do today that I simply cannot put off.

I do have some posts here to make, but I have a veritable ton of stuff to get to on The Rundown, plus I have got to do something about this car, the trash, these dishes, and my clothes. I guess I can work naked - it’s not like anyone will notice - but checking the mail will certainly be interesting.
