Hey, it’s Halloween!! We have not had Halloween in over 15 years. We just moved to the city, you know, suburbia with its tightly packed houses and densely packed people. On the farm, with 5 houses in the surrounding 10 sq miles, we got zero trick or treaters. We are thinking that here we will get a thousand kids asking for candy. So, we get to hand out candy again. Both of us are looking forward to this. We feel like rookies in our first game.
Weighin. Today. Two scales: old 151.7 and new 153.4. Not sure which to trust. New scale is consistent but higher. Old scale is a little all over. Both are a 1.5 loss, that is consistent.
I am still trying to unlock phones. ATT makes it very difficult. They seem to know what’s up and are trying to stop me. Fuckers. I am working on the last one and have now sent in another request. I hope they send their “special response email” this time. They tend to skip that part and just respond with a try again email. I hate them.
Ok. I am gonna skip a bunch. It’s really late and I never got back to the blog.
Spent time at work on the phone unlock. Also set up my comparison sheet for the 3 houses. Was 4 but one went to offer pending. So now 3.
Can’t remember what else I was doing. Don’t care.
This morning I drove the convertible to work. I am dropping off at auto storage later. Emily is in Sacramento so she can give me a ride home. So I drove over there and arrived at 545 which was when Emily should be there. She wasn’t. My drive was 25 mins for 9 miles. Hers prob similar. She showed by 620.
We raced home because we need to hand out candy and are expecting a good crowd. We got home later than we wanted and missed some trick or treaters. I think we got maybe twelve kids. Which is 12 more that the last 15 years. A resounding success.
After the kids stopped the trouble started. Latte, the 16 year old poodle. Started having issues, quite suddenly. Unable to walk. Unwilling to stand. Trouble breathing. Fast heartbeat. She is 16 so she has one paw in the grave and the other is on a banana peel. Emily mothered her for awhile. Took her out to pee. Sorta worked. After a while she was able to start walking and we noticed it was really her back end that was the issue. Her back legs. And had issues pooping. She does suffer from anal sac disease and this could be a flare up. Vet finally texted back and he said same thing. I am a wise man. May need antibiotics for her. She is sleeping soundly now. Damn dog.
I finished up the home comparison sheet. Got input from Emily. So I have that for tomorrow.
Also tomorrow, I hope the last meeting with the county over our variance. Private sit down with planning and fire and all the good guys from my team. I believe the county guys are corrupt. That’s why I’m so far into this crap. I need a good nights sleep.
