Friday, May 27

6:26 a.m. - Yesterday after school, I was productive.  I vacuumed the pool, and I assembled and installed the new hitch bike carrier I purchased for the camper.  It's not on the camper yet because the bumper adapter hasn't arrived yet, but it's on the truck and operational.  The set-up isn't as strong and stable as I had hoped, but I wasn't prepared to spend $700 or more on a unit, so we are going to try this $250 version and hope it works out.  A side note on the pool cleaning is that I think I have a fairly large garden snake that has taken up residence near the pool area.  I can't tell if it's attempting to make a home under the heater or under the filter, but I fear there's an interest from the snake in one or both of the areas.  I don't like snakes at all, and Amber wants me to kill it, but I don't really want to do that.  I tried to convince it to move along last night.  Maybe if I just try to continue to convince it to find a new residence, it will agree.

Today is the last full day of the 21-22 school year.  It will be a long day for me, as I still have three semester exams left to administer and supervise.  I also have a late night tonight with a softball game in Williamsfield beginning at 6 p.m.  There was a lot of rain, though, yesterday, and they may be getting rain this morning, so I'm wondering if the game will be able to be played tonight.

We got paid today!  That's a nice little Friday surprise.  The cash flow is still currently a problem, but I'm going to try to work on that by picking up some extra Iowa softball games, even though I'm tired and don't want to.  I need to beef up the cash flow for that trip to South Dakota in July.
