6:46 a.m. - Well, yesterday wasn't the day I had envisioned. It started off good, as I purchased a subscription to Apple TV, so I could watch the new Ted Lasso series. I love it! Amber isn't a fan, but I find it wonderful. So I watched the two episodes of the new series where Ted takes a job as the women's coach, and then went back and started season 1 of the old series. I may like it even more now!
Then the plan was to drain some water out of the pool before going shopping for some new shoes. I did start draining the pool, and in the meantime I started pulling weeds out of the landscaping around the pool. About that time, I got a message that Mom was looking for me because the Taylor Ridge Church had water in its basement and needed a shop vac. When I arrived, I discovered that it needed a lot more than a shop vac. I don't know what the heck the sump pump system is supposed to be doing there, but it's not doing it. So I came back home and got my little pump out of the pool and used it on the basement. After about 4 hours, I did finally get to go look for shoes and used my gift certificate from Dick's Sporting Goods that I've had for a long time.
Then I came home, and we decided to try to work on the yard. The yard is a disaster because of all the rain we have had this past week. And I did get some of the yard knocked down, but then I went through another mower belt - AGAIN! Ugh. There has to be something wrong that is causing the belt to get too hot and fail. So I took it apart - AGAIN - and I'm going to try a different idler arm pulley to see if that is the probelm. Unfortunately, it's going to take a couple of days to arrive, so I'm going to borrow my mom's mower and try to get the rest of the job done. (My guess is that I'm going to have to work on the church basement again too, as it rained a lot again last night.)
Later today, I'm meeting up with Shawn and Katy to go over our volleyball tests. That's a 5 p.m. in Shawn's room. I may also try to trim the bushes too...they look awful too.
