Tuesday, March 25

6:56 a.m. - Yesterday was an okay day.  I went to Illini Hospital and did all of my pre-op stuff for the knee surgery - urine test, EKG, chest x-rays - the only thing they didn't look at was the knee.  I'm sure that's a great way to make money for the hospital.  Then I tried to take my officiating coat to get it fixed at Monster Sewing, but that place apparently isn't open on Mondays.  I was home in the afternoon for a bit, and then I went to visit mom and dad.  In the middle of all that, I continued to work on pursuing the truck I'm looking at.  The financing side of things was a bit of a sticker shock, so I asked the bank to see if there was anything more they could do to get a little better payment; we ended up working something out.  Then I was encouraged to do more to make sure the title is legitimate - basically that the truck isn't a stolen vehicle and that I'm not getting scammed.  If this is a scam, these folks are really good at it, but I'll do more checking...going to see if a friend in law enforcement can help me out.  

And then I read my book a little and went to bed early.  What will today bring?  I'm going to run down and talk with Trent about the truck I'm looking at.  Then I'm going to try again to get to Monster Sewing.  After that, I'm not sure what I'm doing.  I know that on Thursday I'm going to Fort Madison to see Caleb, and I'm taking my mom.  I'm also going down on Saturday to do some babysitting.  

One thing I'm not doing this week is camping - the weather is crap.
