Baymule’s Journal

[Baymule]

Not mine, just thought you would enjoy them.

Yes I did, so cute!

Yesterday morning I painted the front part of house where the carport used to be, and a little over half of the end of the house. This morning I’ll cut in the grooves of the siding with a paint brush, where I’ve painted. Supposed to be raining tonight and tomorrow, good thing it dries fast. Then I’ll need a few days of sunshine for the siding to dry before I can finish painting it.

Didn't make it out to paint, too cloudy and paint wouldn't dry good before raining tonight. So I did some clean up and took stuff to dumpster. Then my investment company called, I need to E-sign some documents so they can fund the new bank account for purchase of my new place. Yahoo won't work for me. Can't open email. Yahoo hates me. So they will have to mail me the paperwork, me sign and mail back. I still don't have a key to the PO Box. I have to walk in and request my mail. PostOffice closes at 2:30 AND they close 30 minutes for lunch. Only one postal worker in the office. Only the highest efficiency level for this blinking light community!

Between the Post Office and Yahoo, I want to scream.

Our post office is open from 11:30 to 3:00.... and Sat from like 8-11:30.?.. When they first talked about shortening the hours and such, there was a meeting and all that crap, and of the 100's of written answers to the questionnaires... there were only 2 that wanted mid-day to afternoon hours... EVERYONE ELSE wanted them to stay with the early morning of 7:30 to whatever they were cutting the hours to. Did they listen... he//, NO. Our longtime postal person also changed offices to another that was a higher grade, so she would not have to deal with hours being cut.... so when all that happened most went to her office (3 1/2 miles away)..
This is when there was a moratorium on closing offices....it was a shame because so many people used to go by there on their way to work or for the shift workers, on their way home after the night shift... and they wonder why people quit using the USPS for things... besides being very "people UNfriendly"... the slower and slower delivery of stuff makes it just totally unreliable.... I hate it.
At least @Baymule you will be able to change to a P.O. that you should be able to get home delivery service now...
The cell service right at my DS's barn where the tower is has a spot that is really bad... "waves" can't travel well there because it is so close... go figure.

My mailing address will be Kennard. Apple Springs is where the PO Box is and it’s much closer. Last night I spent HOURS on the internet and FINALLY got Yahoo up and even opened my email for first time in weeks, I found the email from the invest firm and went through all the loops “proving” who I was and finally got logged in. By then, the e-sign document had been removed so I wait for UPS to deliver overnight, probably means 2-3 days, then I’ll sign it and drive it 30 miles to Lufkin and overnight it back.

I’ll keep the Apple Springs PO Box, it’s my sons, he added me to it. At least I’ll be able to get his mail. I send him a picture of anything that looks important. He handles everything on his phone.

I’m on the bottom end of the storm, don’t think I’ll get a lot of rain. It drizzled yesterday evening. Trip woke me up clawing at the back door, I thought he was going to dig a hole in it. Thunder monsters scare him to death. He came right in and laid out like a dead dog in front of the TV. I think he tries to make himself small and unobtrusive so I won’t notice him and put him back outside. LOL

They accepted my offer. Appointment tomorrow at 12 to sign papers. Not showing in the pictures is a new covered front porch. It’s on a dead end rock/gravel road.

Small offices have short hours. DW's office is open 8-3:30, closed noon to one, M-F. 8-11:30 on Saturdays. Not the most convenient for people who commute to work elsewhere. She is the only clerk.

The cell service right at my DS's barn where the tower is has a spot that is really bad... "waves" can't travel well there because it is so close... go figure.

I suspect the antennas are designed to radiate out, not down.

I painted some more on the outside of the carport bedroom on son’s house.

Front today

End of house. Fence is only few feet away, real narrow so couldn’t walk out for better picture.

Rest of end of the house

Back part of the previous carport, now my bedroom. LOL

I’ve used 2 gallons of paint, need to get another gallon.

It really soaked in that paint!

Great work though.
