Sitting in Guadalajara trying to figure out exactly how we're going to recover from one of our contract manufacturers telling us to please leave the building. Now. Bye bye. And we're gonna hold your inventory hostage.

Ouch! Certainly nothing constructive, or insightful, that I can offer. I wish you luck, though!

I'm finishing up our bulk catalog, eyes glazed, staring at the screen and typing away. I pop in after each page I finish.

Doing this one last post then blowing this pop-sicle stand...

I've got 180 gallons (30 cases) of water to off-load this afternoon in Colfax, then drive back to town and see if I'm scheduled to get my fuel-line fixed...she's been dripping since the "repair" last Friday...I've got a "spot" the size of kid's sauser-sled under the rear-end...and I can smell it...thank god I've got it outdoors...

If you haven't guessed...I really hate working around gas-leaks and the like...I guess it's a fear of becoming the real-life equivelant (sp?) of Freddy Krueger...

My household is clear of the cold finally.

Today I'm doing leaf cleanup and I also have to do some MityVac troubleshooting on my central lock system again. The leak free condition lasted for about 9 months. At least I have the experience to hopefully track down the source of the leak quickly. It should be easy to locate as it's large enough to cause a slight delay in shutdown.

Have a nice Wednesday all.

I woke up this morning which was a plus!

A new bagel joint opened up down the street this morning so I got a free bagel and coffee so the day started off pretty darn well.

I need to find a roofer who will do rolled rubber for the shed dormer on my house. I've tarred and caulked anything and everything that looks like it might be the source of the leak in my daughter's room but have had zero luck. Leaks suck, it could be coming from anywhere and apparently is. I'm not sure there's enough pitch on it for standard shingles. I can half-a$$ my way through most home projects but this one has been an ego hit.

Good to hear! They can seemingly go on forever, and sometimes do. Enjoy the clear sailing until the next round.
