August 18 After Midnight

Hello all! What, I can't be up late on my night off? I know, but sometimes it's not easy to sleep like a normal person during the night even when I don't have to work... thank God for naps! Remember when we were little kids and hated naps? How things change, no?

So we have had a second heat wave here in the Puget Sound, and it is now supposed to be over, and that's okay. I say that only because I am getting so very tired of all the phone calls from rooms at work saying that the air conditioner is not working, do I know what is wrong with it? Of course soon I will be getting the calls saying the heater doesn't work, all it does it put out cold air... oh well, it is what it is.

The new project is moving smoothly along, just finished Chapter Twenty and started Chapter Twenty One, and I am nowhere near the end, so that is a good sign. I am quite pleased with the progress I am making, my goal is to have it ready to show before my birthday this year, and I am quite sure it's an attainable goal. My partner in writing has been telling me she is happy with the way things are going as well; I just keep on writing. Will keep you all updated on that project as things go.

The car. I filled the tank last evening for the first time since the gas leak was noticed last time and stopped. Well, it leaked once again, but stopped when it got to just above 3/4 of a tank. So obviously there is something up. I will take it to my mechanic (I can say I have one now) and have him take a look, hopefully he won't find anything too alarming and maybe can repair it during his inspection. We can only hope. The exhaust manifold gasket repair seems to have worked. Still get some exhaust odor in the car, but maybe that is residual from the leak, will get the car pressure washed once that is taken care of and take it from there.

Well, hope all is well in everyone's world and will update my blog again sooner than before. Have a great week all!
