Good Evening, FS Warriors! I trust everyone has had a fantabulous Sunday, and if not, there's another one coming up soon. I woke up with nausea and the Big D. I would be concerned, but DW had it and it passed (no pun intended) in 2 or 3 days. She has a habit of giving me these gifts that I wish she could keep to herself. I would not be surprised if I decide to stay home tomorrow. Work is slow, and there is no point in spreading the cheer. Also, rest should accelerate recovery.
Well, I did not get the tractor running yesterday, but I did discover a lot about the tractor. Someone, who owned the tractor before the guy I bought it from, went nuts with some wire clippers and bypassed some defective components in order to keep it running. However, by bypassing that circuitry, he caused the system to provide too much current to the ignition circuit, which would burn it up every few hours. I don't want to perpetuate a cycle of having to fix things over and over, because it isn't wired right or is missing components. I tried to keep it simple here, and yet still tell you what I ran into. The bottom line is that I am ordering a wiring harness, all the ignition components, new plug wires and basically rewiring the tractor. So, it will be a setback of about a week. I'll get er done though.
We went out to eat last night to a local Mexican restaurant. They have really good food. I ate twice as much as I should have, yet not nearly as much as I had been known to consume in the past. We are talking burritos, refried beans and rice. Of course, there is the chips and salsa while you wait on your food. The menu said that I had to drink two Bud Lites to complement the spices in the burritos. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
When we came home from church, I curled up in my recliner with a bottle of water, and DW went to visit our granddaughter who has been diagnosed with colitis. Apparently it is a painful infection of the colon. I figured the last thing she needed was me bringing what I have into her room. Of course, while I was sleeping restfully, the phone rang twice and the dog woke me up to go out. What kind of telemarketer calls on a Sunday afternoon? Man, I wanted to reach out and touch someone. There ought to be a law against it. I wish there was a way to hook up the computer to the phone line and tie up their lines so they couldn't make any calls, but I think they have something in place to prevent that. I'm not vindictive - except for telemarketers. I know they are people, and it is an opportunity for them to make money, but I don't like that it is at my expense. If someone paid me to annoy you, I wouldn't do it.
Enough rhetoric for one day. Have a great evening and a wonderful Monday - if that is possible. Toodles!
