was almost ruined. As to why as was in a good mood to begin with, I'll get to that in a moment.
Anyways, this month has been the attack of the appliances month around the trailer. First, the washing machine leaked all over the dining room and kitchen. Had to get that repaired. About the same time, the icemaker went ka-poot. No way to repair it, had to replace it. Then, the garbage disposal disintegrates inside, had to replace that.
After I replaced the garbage disposal, I noticed that the dishwasher wasn't draining. Checked it out and decided it was broken. Dang it! Searched online for best prices of a new one, decided to go with one at Sears because it was a good price and close to the plantation.
As I was lamenting this morning that I was going to have to drive the truck to work, it dawned on me that the dishwasher broke the same day I put the disposal in. Hmm. Could one have to do with the other? Bam! Of course it did! I forgot to pop the knockout plug out of the disposal so that the dishwasher could drain! Duh! (never said I was the brightest bulb in the pack).
And just like that, I was in a great mood again! Why? Well, first, I found 1 a vehicle. A tee-niny little vehicle that will cut her fuel bill in half. A 2005 Hyunday Accent:
Got a great deal (I hope) and Hyundai reliability. And 1 should have a much, much easier time parking than the F150 Supercab she's been driving.
But that is only part of why I'm smiling today! Got a call from LB yesterday morning and he told me that a friend at work was selling his bike. Did I want to look at it? A 2005 Honda VTX1800R with 1,950 miles. Did I? Heck yeah! Especially for the price!
So, I hooked up with his friend last night and went over and rode it. I was sold before I was half a block away. Perfect, and I mean perfect, condition. I wasted nary a second and Bam!, just like that, I was the proud owner of a new bike. Here it is this morning at the plantation:
Suhweet!
