by the time the buses ran all that was left was to makeup and get some clothes, wake owen up, get him ready and head out the door.
not to much interesting at the $100 store today although we did get a new lock for both the hitch on the van and the boat trailer plus a small trash can for the van.
after we left there, we headed home just in time to meet up with the septic guy, well this would be septic guy number 2 aka the guy who cleans out the drain field. unfortunately no matter what he did (and he tried hard) he couldnt get his hose thing past 25 feet, the pipe itself is about 60 feet long (if i understood everything) which means the drain field is the problem .. lovely *rolls eyes*
so after a referral to someone who can put in a whole new drain field or fix the one we have plus another lump sum out the door.. that guy was out of here and we were inside making more phone calls.
the third guy came a few hours later and we got the price quote (can we fall over now??) although i must admit because he is a cousin of a friend, he is willing to cut us a slight deal (sure does help to know people huh?).
needless to say after a discussion, the decision was made to get it done, not like there was much of a choice in the matter it has to get done after all.
so we called the guy back who told us that he wasnt sure if he would make it out later this week or if he would have to wait until the beginning of next week which means we have to more than likely get the tank cleaned out again which means another lump sum down the drain..
oh why cant we just have regular sewers around here vs stupid septic tanks?? something tells me it would be like 50 thousand times easier to deal with!!
we also managed to call about the much needed front tires of the van and talk to the guy who owns battlefield tire (who ron knows) and got our fingers crossed he can find the tires we are looking for, if not i guess we will go with something compare'able to whats on it now? i really have no idea how that works but its only the front 2 that we need so maybe different brands will work? good thing i have ron who knows what he is doing when it comes to vehicles.
as for now, the kids are getting ready for bed, well wyatt is watching a bit of TV since charlie and the chocolate movie just went off (good movie even though johnny depp did do the whole willy wonka guy a bit weird). Owen is playing on the floor with clyde and thinking he is fooling me that he was eating the cookies he keeps asking for even though i have caught him share'n them with his buddy. *little* ron is finally in the shower and im waiting to do one load of laundry before bed.. fun!!
well i suppose thats it for now..
