Day 3492

 I woke up at 7:30, played games, and then got up for pet stuff and breakfast.  After that it was surfing until Abby was ready to run.

It was a little hot out, but Abby still had a good time.  We only went to I5 and back because there were a fair number of shooters out. 

When I got back it was time to fix the trailer floor.  I cleaned out the edges with dental picks and used them to apply the adhesive, too.  They worked well.  I used a can of pumpkin to roll it out and cases of shells to weight it down.  It was a lot of time laying on the floor.  Ellen helped by handing me things so I didn't have to get up.  I hope the fix works.

Ellen told me that there was a new Samsung watch with a rotating bezel. I want one.  I can even get a $250 trade in for my old watch.  I need to wait a couple of weeks for it's introduction, but I still spent some time on the web reading about it.  That way I'm sure that I want one.

I noticed that my watch wasn't talking to the phone.  Reconnecting it involved rebooting it.  When I did it lost its mind.  I spent a lot of time getting it back to what I wanted. 

The 6X6 truck and its motor came today.  They were delivered to the club.  I opened it up and got out the instruction book.  I needed two servos and a receiver to build it.  I lucked out on Amazon.  It's Prime day and the servos were on sale, cheap.  I also found a case-less receiver that is cheap and small.  I ordered one of those for the micro-b and will use the one I have now on the 6X6.  It turns out that the kit has some, but not all, bearings.  I ended spending a few bucks on Aliexpress that I didn't have to.

I switched to videos, which turned into a nap.  Ellen's asshole was giving her grief, so I had a sandwich for dinner.  After dinner I watched videos for a while and then switched to a movie.  I only got halfway through the movie before I got bored and went to bed.

Tomorrow we have to be on the road before 9 to make the shoot.
