Almost gone!

It's not going to rain today! :D And in SD, it's not supposed to snow.... We might actually get on the ROAD!

We have a ratty (but working) riding mower, loaded into an ancient (but working) 91 Chevy truck, loaded onto the 20' flat trailer and the 93 one-ton has a fresh oil change and the slide in mostly packed for travel! I promise, I'll take pictures of this Clampet-like rig! :D Because, it gets worse! Keith has built a box on the front of his trailer to fill with tools and all the things he can find around here that can be used on the Shack! And then, there are conduit bundles, Rubbermaid boxes(filled with drywall tools and painting tools and more), cans of paint, my brother's bicycle, and many other "important" things yet to be loaded onto the trailer....!

My line-of-sight internet service goes on vacation Friday, my VCard is activated, I'm headed for the post office today to line up mail forwarding... and then to pick up the RXes, and do some last minute shopping at Chinamart.

The Union Hall hasn't called Keith about a job in a very long time, but the unemployment keeps coming, for now.... It'd be just our luck that we'll get out West with all this conglomeration of stuff and THEN they'll finally have a job for him! (Not that I expect it--no one, not even the "pets", is working in this mud!).

So, off to sort clothes....

Almost Easter

Did I say that the Hall called him? Well, on that Sunday morning, Marathon called and said, "Oops! New plan--we don't need any guys, after all." So much for that job.

New departure date is the day after Mother's Day. We can't get any of the renovations done when it keeps blowing up a blizzard every few days--which is what this spring in Kadoka is like! This new date has, of course, slowed down K's preparation schedule, since now he has "loads of time to get ready".... But progress is being made, I guess. The 91 pickup is ON THE ROAD! Insured and driveable! One ton needs an oil change, and there still seems to be some issue with the light connection between it and the flatbed trailer... (not my department!)

Hubby Dearest is 'all about' electrical wiring and boxes and such crappola, these days. I'm not sure why.... I just keep collecting things I'm gonna need to take along and making a pile. :D
