I woke up at 6 and couldn't go back to sleep. I played games for hours before getting up for pet stuff and breakfast. I surfed for a little while and then called Audi. The service guy said that they were just starting to look at the car.
I went outside to put gas in the mower and start it. Surprise, surprise, the battery was dead. I put it on the charger.
I decided to cut dead branches on the trees bordering the parking area. That will make mowing easier. I ended up cutting 6 or 7 armloads. I was tired when that was done and went in to have lunch.
When lunch was done I went back out to the garage and attached a new string head to one of the trimmers. It would have been easy if I'd known what I was doing. I didn't. I ended up taking a lot of the trimmer head apart that I didn't need to.
The first mower battery wouldn't take a charge. There was another in the shed, so I put it on the charger. Then I went inside to see if it would take a charge.
While I was waiting Audi called. They said that the problem requires a software update that hasn't been released yet. At least it's OK to drive the car. They suggested that I wait until tomorrow when thay get confirmation from Audi. I said OK.
The second mower battery wouldn't take a charge either. We went to the battery store for another. We stopped at Sonic for drinks on the way back. We also stopped at HEB for a lot of groceries.
When we got home I went out to the garage to put the new battery on the charger. Then I used the Dremel to dissemble the 100 20 hunting shells that had been ruined when water got into the plastic bag they were in. It to 2 hours and left me coated with plastic dust. I went back inside and took a shower.
Ellen fixed steak for dinner. It was good. After dinner I did a little RC parts shopping, watched some football, and then surfed.
I'll mow tomorrow. It's supposed to be a record high temperature.
