This Morning
Sleep at 2am woke at 4am but could not pull myself from bed. Got the kids going at 6:15 amidst several cat naps. Mentally and physically exhausted.

Progress!
Time to pause my working day. Shall resume tonight. I wish I could work as fast as I think.

Progress!
I’ve been working on code all day but slipping in some of the other necessities for sanity. Since I won’t be able to drive the soccer team tonight, the punctured tire had to be fixed. I ahve been unable to locate my rasp or glue for the past week and a half and finally remembered to buy one.
The tire is fixed! (at least the plug is in…we are pressure testing now).
The dryer is further dismantled.

Bought the belt and wheel replacement kit for the dryer and it came up 2 wheels short! I even questioned it at the store and the sales person insisted the dryer only had 2 rollers. I should have bought 2 more just to be safe. Ugh. Another hour needs to be spent driving around.

I am trying to identify the tiny, shiny black spiders inside the dryer. Good Spider Myth Debunker!

So blurry!
My ability to focus on my work is being severely hampered (laundry pun) by my desire to work on the dryer!
I have decided to spend $25 more on the repair and replace all wheels and belts. Between the new wheels, belts and motor, this dryer should effective perform like a refurb and last several more years.
I need a full afternoon to complete the work plus an hour to go buy parts.

Superman has died
In the last week Reeve had developed a serious systemic infection from a pressure wound, a common complication for people living with paralysis. … then fell into a coma and died Sunday at a hospital surrounded by his family, his publicist said. He was 52.I was really hoping he’d beat this. I know. Unrealistic. The progress he’d made was incredible. He really was Superman (amz). -

This Morning
I finally gave up on the dryer about midnight. Woke again at 4am but could motivate myself out of bed beyond cleaning up the dog’s stank. Realized the cat was awol (escaped while I was coming to and fro with the dryer parts) so I spent a few minutes calling her back into the house. The scared thing spent 4 hours on the outside!I don’t want to go to work today. I want to finish the dryer. I’m very close. All-in-all I’ve learned a whole bunch about dryers and things you can do to maintenance them and extend their lives; however, if I took my standard hourly rate and applied it to this learning lesson I probably could have just had one delivered and installed and foregone the lesson. They would have even hauled off the old one. On the plus side, I can repair the other one with relative easy based on what I have learned and Cathy can have two dryers.
