It looks like it is going to be a rainy day. I need to straighten out the container mess. I will get a letter to Nolan and check the finances. Damn! Two checks to the power company. The bastards have been holding the check. I should have been a little slower. I guess Annie will be back today. I will check out Mikey tonight.

I waited until mid-afternoon before I heard from Michael’s mom. I finally got a long explanation about Dom and Ayden. I was afraid I might have gone too far and insulted them. It is really sad. I have to think of something smart that might help that little bugger out. The whole outfit seems in deep shit. Man, it is a real redneck horror story.

It was pretty miserable all day. I never did get out and do any exercises. Of course, I could have done them inside. I ate some chicken soup that upset my stomach and got some KFC tonight that upset my wallet and sense of value. That place has gone to hell. I’ll never go back- much too expensive. I wrote a letter to Nolan and read some in the book. Tom was up a couple of times. I guess Cleaver was around and Dennis showed up around four. Quite a bit of hay came in but it has been raining since about six oclock so there will probably be none tomorrow. It is supposed to be snowing before daybreak. Damn. I was hoping it would go around. I got the bill for the plumbing but have not opened it yet. I’ll do it tomorrow and get a payment off to them. The fucking power company deposited both checks the SB’s. Boy, they really take the cake. They are a fucking grasping outfit if I ever saw one.
