Daily Tasks
Today, I took the 2004 BMW X3 down the hill to the Taj Mahal and got my plates renewed. The title is in Jennifer's name, but that didn't seem to be an issue. The insurance is in my name. The car is titled at my address. They didn't need to do an emissions test because it had passed a mobile emissions test somewhere/somehow? So they gave me new stickers and I put them on the license plate. Also, they gave me two pieces of paper as proof of registration: one goes in my wallet, one goes in the car glove box. The one that goes in the glove box doesn't have your home address on it, in case someone steals your car, apparently.
Then, I came home and got the green Honda ATV running. I had charged the battery overnight, pulled the air filter, sprayed some starter fluid into the carb, choked it, and it fired up. I ran it around the yard some, but the snow is really too deep at this point to be playing around on it. So I put it back in the garage.
Then, I tried to get my cat door installed in the side door to the garage, because a bear tore my door apart. I found some plywood and my skill saw, but before I started cutting, I took a few measurements, and realized that I can't get my cat door to open and/or close. At all. So, it's just locked shut, and nothing on this earth will open it. P.O.S. I will call them tomorrow.
Sun has set. It's 5:20 p.m. I'm sick as a dog. So, I got in bed, took some medicine. Hopefully I'll live until the morning.
Oh yeah. One other thing. Somehow, all of our mailboxes are left open every day. I assume that the mailman is doing this, but today, 3 mailboxes were wide-ass open in the middle of the day. I'm not saying anything was taken, but this is not what you want to see when you go to your mailbox. THis is the 2nd day in the row it has happened. Yesterday, 2 mail boxes were open. Today, 3 were open. I'm going to set up my gamecam and see wtf is going on.
Charging the batteries for the gamecam now: 5:30 PM MST.
Called Bud and Alice. Neither one of them bothered to answer. Walked over, found out they're in Florida. Told Kate that I was going to set up the gamecam on her fence and see WTF is going on with the mailboxes. (But I have to charge some more AA batteries tonight. They're on charge now.)
