The first Friday I have worked for a while. I should get in a few hours this week. I hope to keep them around 55. T he Expedition is getting new shocks and I need to take all unnecessary crap out of the Topaz. I gassed it up this morning. I need to clean up around the trailer as well. There will probably be several containers today I am not sure about any hay coming in. I'll try to get a letter out to Cuddie.

A cute kid if I ever saw one. I hope the baseball cap and shirt come today.

I will be waiting to hear from Michael. I hope that he got his card from his mother. I will just have to keep supporting him until he is ready to fly I guess. I hope he is willing to return the favor some day. Somehow I think he will.

We finished up the containers. The truck driver snapped the drive line on one of the truck and Tom was pretty  unhappy., I don't blame him. The guy is a dork but better than Javier. Oh well, I got in about 56 hours which was pretty good for the week. The Expedition cost almost $600.00 that I did not want to spend. I am really going to have to cut back around here. I just can't keep it up. I will be glad when Michael is in better shape maybe he can give me some help to get that fucking credit card paid down.

I called him this afternoon and his mother has his ID card but he could not figure out a way to get it before Monday. He said he was cleaning out Kate's room. That must be a real mess. She was throwing things away last Monday. I got a baseball cap for Mikey and it came in so I'll give it to him before the game. I expect he is going to want to go swimming more than go to a ball game. Oh well, I better enjoy it because I may have to cut back until I can figure something else out. I sent a letter off to Roger letting him know that I did not want any more leather for a while. That Fucking Schimmele wrote another letter so I am about five installments behind right now. At least I sent his pictures back. Cuddie wrote again and he wants some books and an Abridged Dictionary. I will have to see what I can do.

 I watched True Love about an Italian couple of kids about to get married and they are not quite ready to get committed to a relationship that interfers with their private choices. It was pretty good.

The Most MemorablePositve Moment was getting a ride from Dave Schockman at Schwabs.
