It's that door again

What a rotten old day. Started to get the doors repainted today, did a few other small jobs round the house, and then got told that the new tenants are in on the 1st May.

1st May??? Seriously, 1st May? WTF? It was meant to be 1st June?!!! Bang goes my weekends then. It also means a lot of small jobs will be put aside. But it does mean that we need to get on with the back bedroom sooner than earlier with it's new ceiling. Plus the other bit of roof I need to get sorted.

Bathroom maybe waiting to the next round of tenants though.

And we still have to get the central air into the place - that was a May thing! But now it's going to have to be this month, which means installing a window (a job I'm not looking forward to as I need to take a boat load of vinyl siding off the house).

So I took this picture at the beginning of the day before the crappy news came in.

Decided late in the day to move a carpet to the new property and that just about saw off the end of my day when Dog broke down. (*&(*&(*& not (*&(*&(*& pleased. I knew I was low on fuel, but had at least 10 miles, and it went early. Limped into a petrol station where it refused to take any meaningful amount of fuel, and then on the way back to Rancho - it frigging broke down on me. Left me stranded for 20 minutes on the side of a road before magically coming to life again.

Figure that I really do need to have the fuel tank off it and get it cleaned out. Gonna have to get that done next week as I have neither the time or inclination to do that job. Whilst it's there I might get it serviced as well, just for fun.
