Well, let’s see….. I meant to write in my blog more often and here it is, 5 days later, and I haven’t yet!  UGH!!  So, after that horrible week last week, I am really hoping that this week will be MUCH better!

On Friday, Chuck and I opened up our sewer lid and found it 6″ from the top!  GROSS!!!!!!  So, we had a guy come out and for $150 we got the 1,500 gallon tank emptied out.  Now, everything runs great!  He did say that no days, because of all the anti-bacterial soaps people use that tanks really should be emptied out every 4-5 years.  He said that even putting yeast down there really doesn’t help because of the amount of the anti-bacterial stuff that gets put in there.  He did say that the only real thing he sees that works is Rid-X, because it keeps it soft enough to pump out easy and so the paper can move to the bottom.  But, at $5 a month and still needing to be pumped out at 5 years, it’s not really worth it.  So anyway, that is fixed and working good now!

My truck needs a new motor.  The bearings have worn down and it makes the oil pressure go down and it ticks really bad.  I could drive it for years or weeks before it dies, we don’t know.  We are going to look around and see if we can find a used truck with a motor that will fit mine and change them out.  Our friend, Dave, can change them out.  So, I will be looking around for a new motor, or a new car, LOL!!

My bowling has been improving since I got my new ball and shoes for Christmas!  I won about $15 on Saturday night from bowling so well.  I was 84 pins over my average and was the highest over my average of the whole league so I won some money and this past Saturday I was 109 pins over so I will probably win again!  I was highest over my average on my first game and won some money too.  My average is 128, next week it will probably be higher.  I need more lessons but Chuck hurt his knee, so it probably won’t be this week.

I had Mike look at my upper gums on the left side.  It hurts really bad and all the way to my eye.  I thought maybe I had an abscess  or something.  He looks and I guess I have a canker sore.  I never had one before.  It’s very painful and it’s up in the crease of my gum and cheek.  Mike said they are very painful and last for weeks.  At least it’s not an abscess!  So, not sure what to do about it, if anything.  I hope it goes away soon.  Another good thing, at least it’s on the inside of my mouth and not the outside for the world to see!!!
