The rest of Monday was fine but Tuesday was pretty much a bust, laying around, trying to not just sleep all day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today has been better.  I think I am about 75% operational.  I didn&#8217;t run today though.  We did take a walk to the corner and back which is a mile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Being back in the south I am back to my southern lifestyle which includes buying stuff off of online auctions and such.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I found out late last week that I have won the competition for a 1994 Ford F-150 pickup truck.  So I&#8217;m scheduled to take some time off on Friday to go and get it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is at least the 3rd mid-90&#8217;s Ford pickup I will have owned.  And I had another that was mid-80&#8217;s.  All were white with minimal interior. One was a basket case.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The one we had before we moved to Iowa I gave to my neighbor and he uses it.  It is parked in his back yard.  That suits me fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And I&#8217;m currently driving a Ford van from that era also.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>A purchase I attempted to make did not take place.  Last Saturday  we  were supposed to meet a guy about a boat and trailer.  We went to his house at the appointed time and couldn&#8217;t raise anybody.  Few hours later he sent me a message that he lost track of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Frankly I was kind of miffed to drive over an hour to get there, wait around 45 minutes, and an hour driving back and the guy not being there.  He asked if I could try again on Sunday and I just wasn&#8217;t interested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We did see the boat when we were there&#8230;  maybe if he still has it later we may try again.  If he can&#8217;t tell time, probably it will still be there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You will recall we had a yellow painted rowboat which we took with us to Iowa and eventually sold it there.    Now that we are back we would kind of like to do that again.   <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[Saturday 6.5 Starkville rose garden route, Monday 3.25] I got my run in early Monday morning because at noon we were scheduled to go to the Wal-Mart pharmacy and get our Covid #2 Booster, which we did.
