We got up about 8:30. It was pet stuff and breakfast followed by surfing. John and Melissa were in the apartment having breakfast after taking Daniel to I35 to meet Isaac. They were going to Corpus Christi.
About 9:30 the sewer people called. They'd been shut down for Christmas. They said they could have someone here in 45 minutes.
John and Melissa came over and we talked for awhile. Then the sewer guy came and got to work. Ellen and Melissa left to shoose granite for the bathroom. John and I surfed and talked. I found a pick a part place for us to get Bronco parts.
The sewer guy knocked on the door and said the apartment pump needed replacing - $1,300. I said OK. A while later he said the house pump needed replacing, too - another $1,300. He left to pick one of those up. John and I continued to talk and surf.
The sewer guy came back and replaced the pump. He presented me with a $3,000 bill. e said that the reason the pumps failed was the drain field needs to be blown out. He's going to send us an estimate for that. I expect it will be another $1,500. Ellen and Melissa came back just after he left. They have expensive bathroom mods in mind. Fortunately we can afford it all.
We talked and surfed for awhile. All of us walked to the mailbox along with the two dogs. Dinner was various leftovers. John left to go back to I35 to pick up Daniel.
We spent the evening watching car shows. John really likes them. He actually stayed until 10:30 to watch them.
