Saturday Morning Ramblings

Here I sit in a quiet and cool household this morning. This house was a little warm this week with some problems, but Kiwi and Peanut went to Best Buy, bought a new air conditioner, and stuck it in the window for Michelle and me to enjoy this heatwave in coolness. They are such great pets. 

I also owe a lot of thanks to a couple of my brothers-in-law. George came over last weekend and put in a new circuit breaker into the fuse panel, thinking that could be the problem, but it still kept kicking. Even when I moved the AC to another circuit, it kicked that double-poled circuit, so I called my brother-in-law Nick to pick his brain since he is a certified electrician and a certified HVAC guy. Told him the problem and he quickly diagnosed that it was my Aior Conditioner and it would be better just to replace it than to have the old one fixed. So I had a nice credit on my Best Buy account from when I bought Michelle's reMarkable that was going to expire next month, so I just applied that to the air conditioner and got it at a nice discount. Brought it home, and George helped Kiwi and Peanut do all the lifting to put the new one in the window. It is so much cooler in here now, not so much like Satan's asshole. Thank you ti George, Pam, Nick, Penaut, and Kiwi for helping assist and alleviate the problem. 

So what is on today's agenda? Michelle will be doing the grocery shopping, and I may be cutting grass if it is dry and tall enough that it needs to be cut. Hopefully, I can do it without hitting that branch that I hit again last week, which gave me a concussion last fall. 

Did talk to a few people about some more contracts for my GIS services this week. Met with Hope Gas at the old Mylan facility about working for them, then I had a recruiter call me about doing for First Energy what I did for Duquense Light and I would be getting in early on that project. I'm still working for Parsons as well, but nothing at the moment, coverage-wise, but that can always change. 

Have yourselves a great day.
