you are probably getting what rolled through. We got slight rain, thunder, lightning, and wind. Youll get the rain.
I hate winter. Summer im good. Lived in texas, worked outside everyday, then I came to Ga and was the same story. Texas was dry heat, GA is humid heat.

I got to get reengized to start on the body work. Since we decided not to get the camper rt now, the push to get truck done has slowed down. I still plan on primer this month.

A tree broke last night down by the road during the storm, My neighbor came to the house this morning to inform me about it, So I was busy cutting it up and dragging it off this morning.
I changed the transmission fluid and filter today in the motorhome this afternoon. Crossed my fingers and took it for a test drive and the thing drives like a dream again!!! Posted on craigslist and I have a few people interested but so far I have only one person coming to look at it on Saturday morning.
VA Exam tomorrow morning in Atlanta, traffic, parking, boy that's going to be a ton of fun.

Do not forget to file for you travel pay. Since it is C&P you will get .41 /mile. When I go to Atl I get about $50.00 it is the same mileage rate

I have not heard from the Pratt & Whitney guy since Tuesday afternoon, no phone call, no email. The employment specialist called me and said the railroad is interviewing for a position I applied for on the 11th of next month, I should get an invite.
The VA paperwork says I will get a check when I get done with the appointment.

I think my appointment is with a contractor because the address is not for the VA hospital. I have a few people interested in the motorhome so that's working out. I got a great lead yesterday for a job from the employment specialist, right up my alley.

Everything hurt, civilian contractor so probably not as strict as a VA doctor, in and out in about 1 1/2 hours and I have a good feeling the rating will end up being pretty good.
We had a little rain and hail for about 5 minutes but nothing bad thank goodness. Waiting for a guy to show up from Atlanta to look at the motorhome.

The man that was coming to look at the motorhome never called or showed up, no loss as I have a guy coming first thing in the morning. I did not sit around to wait on him I went out and mowed most of the grass around the property.
We dodged the bad weather today, maybe 5 minutes of rain a little hail and some wind and it was over.
