Little Sad but Getting Glad

How about that! It's Monday! What a weather weekend PoBoy endured. First was the heat, of course. Then came the storms, wind, rain, and even tornadoes. The storms tore off tree limbs and leaves everywhere. Better grab a few of those Adam and Eve. LOL LOL

Thank goodness in PoBoy's area did not get hit with a tornado, although there were a few touch downs reported throughout the county. And today forecast is more of the same. However, there seems to be relief on the immediate horizon with temps dropping back into the 70s.

Other then the weather it was quite boring. Oh! Please be careful of "tomatoes" as PoBoy just heard on the news that 16 states are now reporting somenella poisoning from tomatoes. Even though it is his favorite fruit/vegetable, he'll be cautious too.

Here's your daily countdown to Florida: 130 days until retirement; 144 days until move to Florida

You certainly won't believe this, but it's now Wednesday evening. The work week at the office is ended. Now comes the finale. Just 3 more days and PoBoy's final conference will be over. Tomorrow he's renting a subcompact to make the 100 mile drive up and another 100 miles back. Hope car gets good gas mileage.

PoBoy is a might sad tonight. He called Florida yesterday about a pickup he had seen for sale. Sounded like a sweet deal to him. However, PoBoy learned this evening, or maybe it was feeling, that tonight the owner suddenly had other buyers coming for a "look see." It's difficult to make such deals when you are 1300 miles away. So PoBoy will have to wait until he reaches Florida to make a good deal.

The whole USA is talking about these gas prices. PoBoy heard on news this morning that it costs the sheik about $2.00 a barrel to make the stuff, yet he is now charging $140.00 a barrel. Something is wrong here. That is highway robbery profit. PoBoy wonders what happened to all the oil wells in Iraq. Our boys paid dearly to help that country. He thinks maybe it is time for those folks to kick in a little help for good old USA.

Count down continues: 128 days until retirement; 142 days until move to Forida.

PoBoy is sad to report no pictures arrived to show trailer with tipout displayed. He was promised he would have pictures by end of week, but that was 3 weeks ago now.

Oh Well! Not all is lost as PoBoy sweetened the pot a little. He picked up a lead here in Michigan and is going to pick up an igloo cooler tomorrow. Want to see what it looks like http://www.calibex.com/igloo-cooler-on-wheels/zzcalibex2zB1z0--search-html It's the third one down with the wheels. How much you want to know? $15.00. That should keep the PoBoy well supplied with cold drink. Say do you think the fishies might like their worms chilled? Bet PoBoy catches even more fish using that technique. LOL LOL

And decided to get a second desktop PC with more speed. The one he's getting is a Pentium 4. It was built for film editing so should be on the fast side. This one is going to cost him 150.00 but PoBoy thinks it be worth it. Why? Cause he not sure exactly what type internet service he be able to get: probably dial up or satellite connection

PoBoy suppose to pick that up tomorrow too. He going to have a busy day for sure.

PoBoy will check back in Saturday night after the conference.
