I woke up a little after8 and played games until a little before 9. Then it was up for pet stuff and breakfast. After a little surfing I took the shower sprayer mount off the wall and took it to the shed.
I removed the clamping bolt and looked at it. I could see what was wrong. The plastic knobs had brass inserts that screwed onto the bolt. As I tightened the bolt the inserts were pulling out of the knobs instead of tightening the clamp.
Luckily I had a new bolt that would fit. I put washers on both ends and used a nut on the other end. I used wrenches to tighten it down as much as I could. The result is VERY tight. I installed the mount and put the sprayer on it. The sprayer hasn't drooped all day. Hopefully that fixes the problem.
It didn't take all that long to do the fix, but by the time I was done it was getting hot in the shed. We put the dog in the box and went to the grocery store. We wanted to get a 6' lead and some pet water also. We ended up getting those at BiMart. We got a few groceries at Safeway and went to DQ for lunch. They didn't have the $7 special, so we won't be back. We also stopped at Walgreen's where we got a dog toy and a Nerf like toy.
By the time we got home it was really hot. We hid out in the trailer watching videos and killing flies. The Nerf gun was great. I killed at least a dozen with it. We must have killed more than that with swatters. The flies would hang out on the outside trailer walls and fly in whenever the dog went out. Killing then was fun at first, but became work.
The rest of the day and evening was videos.
