This morning, we took Da Mountie, loaded with ladders to Orlando.
It was another busy day. Mark had a ton of trash to put out for this morning's pickup. It took him an hour to haul it around. We were happy to see it all go on the garbage truck. The house is looking better, day by day.
No OSHA here apparently! Nice scaffolding Mark. LOL. Hey, it had to be painted.
My day began with the pantry shelves. LOL. I have a lot of white paint in my hair and even some on my eyelashes!
Mark said it now looks ready for collard green tins. Hahaha.
I also got 4 doors painted, both sides and the family room baseboards. The tile floor was so sticky with grime that I couldn't scoot along on my butt to paint the baseboards. When I tried scooting, my pants stuck to the floor and I ended up with no pants on. Ha ha ha.
Mark had fun vacuuming this message to the former tenants. Yucky!
Advantage Chrysler called with bad news on our Dodge's transmission. After putting in 3 new solenoids ... it has the same problem! The service manager said he'd have to order a TIPM ... total $2500. WTF? Sue suggested I talk to the manager. Monday I will call Chrysler headquarters. We understand things happen, but the vehicle has 80,000 miles on it. Not much for a big diesel!!! And there we were at the job site in Orlando with Da Mountie that has 270,000 miles on it, original transmission. The karma gods are still angry with us. :-(
On the way home on the 429, we ran into a rough patch on the highway. I thought we were about to lose a tire. Then, Mark grabbed his leg. A frog was in Da Mountie and jumped on his leg and Peed. LOL. There's never a dull moment. A few minutes later, he found the frog on his shoulder, grabbed it, and tossed it out the window into the grass. Two days ago, we had a lizard inside the Kia. It's time to enjoy a glass of wine. Ta ta.
