Happy taco Tuesday Nor Cal.

Looks like I will not be moving. Spoke to the property management company in person, and asked them about next month's rent, and they told me to only pay my half. And they are working on getting a pest control person out to spray again.

That's great Jim, the power of prayer goes along way, now if they can just control the bug Issue , it will take many attempts to get rid of bed bugs , you have to do your part too , what did you find out on the vet/ section 8 from your adviser? Could be another reason they kept you in your place.

Haven't heard from the vet rep yet. This will be the third spraying, and I always follow the guidelines the pest control people gave me. As a matter of fact. Both times she has shown up, she commented on the fact that I am better prepared than anyone she has seen previously. I even bought plastic covers for the mattress and box spring after the first visit, but she looked at them and said they don't state bedbug "proof" on them. So she wanted me to buy hers for $77. I did not have the money at the time. And now, she is still stating I should buy them, even though there are no bed bugs in either of the bed rooms, only the living room (where the recliner is, and where I sleep) A friend is thinking of wrapping the recliner up in a big plastic sheet, and setting off a few bug bombs inside while they spray the place. I doubt the pest control people will approve as they say not to mix chemicals. At this point though, I will try anything to get rid of them. I just bought this recliner two months ago and have no intention of throwing it out. Especially considering how much it cost, and how much I still owe on it.

Been busy and haven't been around much. Bummer you're still dealing with bed bugs Jim!

We're on fire again. The Gap Fire is a few miles north of my parents place right now. It was pushing 9000 acres this morning so I'm sure it's well over 10000 by now. The inversion layer lifted midday and it's running hot, hopefully to the north. There isn't anything up there...

Fl460,

Take care and be prepared. I've been listening to the tankers as they launch over the house.

Today was a better day at work by wearing different cloths and not staying put too long. Feels funny wearing athletic pants pulled up over the incisions.

Well, the did 2 (one for each side) by laparoscopic surgery. I have 3 or 4 small incisions near the navel. Now I'm back to flying my lazer jet. And trying to set plans to repair a section of 5. Of course it didn't help that I popped a CAC boot last night on the way home from the mechanic's.

So much fun trying to get home to the proper set of tools. Couldn't snug the clamp bolt down well with an Oklahoma fits all.

Yep.

At least I was able to gingerly climb up using the tow hook as a step and carefully get up to reach without stretching. All of this at 5:30 PM traffic on the shoulder of I-5. Of course it's fun when you drop the socket down on the frame rail as you are getting out.
