    Oh brother. I've done my morning run.
    At SDV I find out nobody answered when they called, so at least two loads are on some other company.
    May not have paid to come in today.

    Still home....don't leave 'til Sunday morning.

    (And, as an aside....we went to a relative's home for T'giving yesterday...knew we'd be gone about six hours, so I was careful to check the bedroom before closing the door for any cats left behind. Didn't see any. Upon returning home and opening the door, Oscar, our orange tabby and lone male of the four, calmly walked out of the room, leaving behind some fur on the bed, but nothing else. He resolutely ignored me for the next two hours.)

    Yesterday I went to an open market on the street for groceries, fresh fruits and vegetables....

    In the afternoon drove a car to a small village nearby and started training someone who needs to get his drivers license.... The car needed repair so I had it sent to mechanic... I am the one in charge of expenses...

    This is the view in front of the house where I am...

    It is a small town but this house is not very far from a paved road. Actually there is a state road just down this street as it cuts thru the town. All the streets in this town are either dirt or paved with stones... kinda cobblestone... It is hot here all year long... no winter... always summer... no ceiling in the houses... we can see the roof tiles from the inside.

    So, no air conditioner and bugs can get inside. There were 2 little toads... or frogs... or something similar... in the bathroom last night while I was taking a shower... :biggrin_2559:
