ThisNThat

Texas was a great trip. Brenna's growing up SO fast! I put together the major play set that her other grandparents had bought for her, plus figured out how to add the zip line that someone else had given her for her birthday. Hope to have photos soon, and maybe videos of her playing on the structure.

My yellow truck is for sale now, in order to pay for the repairs needed on the truck I bought back in April. It needed--
  • Carbueretor rebuilt
  • Master Cylinder and main lines for brake system (someone had redone the brakes at the wheels recently, so those were fine)
  • Rebuilt transmission
  • Replaced flywheel
  • Intake manifold gasket (which meant valve cover gaskets, too)

But it's coming out of the shop next Monday, I think! I'm excited.

Debbie went to the orthopoedist today, and will have to have arthroscopic surgery next Tuesday to try to get a loose hunk of tissue out of her knee. Having cortisone injected into her hand (for 'trigger finger') while she's under anaesthesia.
