Friday broke open. I awoke refreshed, got coffee of course. Played on the computer, the garage didn't open until 7:30 so had to entertain myself somehow. I also know that today I had things to do. Things that I had been putting off.
I attacked the bills. The house and my personal bills. Had a huge one due to a repair upon my car. I had put it on the card anticipating not the hardships that would encompass the end of June and all of August. Smiling I was able to pay the bills; also noted that I would need to stop by the insurance agent to see what was owed, he's on the same street as the garage. I tackled the household bills. Tough when I'm not getting proper house payments from brother in law and sister. I did have to smile, I managed it.
I was off. The morning was chillish, the proper way you'd expect maybe an early summer day just before hitting 90 degrees. Certainly not what one would expect from the last day in August. The oil change went well. In the future I am going to need a new front axle and a new battery. No huge rush, I'm thinking early October personally.
Funny thing about the battery. I'd bought it 5 or 6 years ago quickly when I had no money. Officially it was a 1 year life battery. Very good battery indeed. I went home got the bills and off I went. Bank first, did the machinations that need to be done. Then post office and at last the insurance agency. Found I didn't need to make payments until the 18th so I was glad for the extension.
At home I watched a judge show and played on the computer a rather lot for me. It was my vacation after all. I had a very long debate with myself about going to the lounge again. I won. Especially since they were having an event that night and it would have cost me money, thus blowing the savings I'd made by buying the cigars.
Friday night when I'm home, is generally pizza night. I was home and got 2 Sicilian slices. I might add that my sister and brother in law buy, don't want to paint them unfairly after all. And I might add that I had the $50 I just lent them returned as well. No mention of the near $200 they still owe me on trip to Costco. May have been my fault there. I told them to take their time and had money to pay the credit card bill. Did I think it was going to take this long? Nope. Such is life.
I remember going for a smoke to my beach spot on Friday night, other than that nothing to notable. OH! wait.
I discovered that they were doing a Dr. Who marathon on BBC America, watched much of it and thought I might catch the season premier.
