Day 3385

 I woke up a little before 9.  I didn't play games, I just got up for pet stuff and breakfast.  After that I went outside to deal with the Ranger.

The problems started immediately.  I thought I had Stabil, but I didn't.  I drove over to the station on 45, they didn't have any.  I stopped at HEB, they didn't have any either.  I ended up having to drive all the way to 290 and William Cannon to get some. 

When I got back I put the Stabil in the gas and the gas in the Ranger.  When I tried, the Ranger wouldn't start.  The battery had died overnight.  I tried to use the battery charger to jump start the Ranger.  The indicators on the charger have dies, so I couldn't set it to jump start mode.  I ended up waiting an hour or so for the battery to be charged.

During the wait I finally cleaned up everything in the trailer.  I also put away the stuff that had been gathering there that needs to go to Oregon.  I also got Ellen to clean out all of the extra plastic bins she had in one of the kitchen cabinets. 

After that the battery was finally charged.  I got the Ranger started and moved back to it's storage space.  Then Ellen helped me cover it.  It's supposed to rain starting tonight and lasting up to 2 days (yeah).  With that done we left for errands.

There was a package at the post office for Ellen.  Then we went to lunch at Torchy's.  There were a lot of Grackles there, which drove Abby nuts.  We also stopped at the pet store, but they didn't have the right cat food.  We ordered some.

The last stop was Circle C.  I walked the dog while Ellen hung out in the can.  It was hot an humid, so I didn't walk far.  I met a couple of hunting dog people and we talked while they watched Abby run.

When we got home I didn't nap.  Instead I soldered up the wires to the bamboo Lego.  It worked really well.  I rearranged the stuff around the crystal box and put it there it's a nice addition.   Finally I cleaned up, put everything away, and glued a broken baby Yoda thing from the trailer.  The damn cheap Chinese super glue tube broke while I was using it.  I spent more time cleaning glue off my fingers than I did fixing the baby Yoda thing.

After that it was videos, dinner (frozen), and more videos.  It's rained 1/4 inch this evening.

I'm really glad about all the stuff that got done today.  Hopefully I'll be able to get another couple of things done tomorrow.  It all depends on how much rain there is.
