Tonight,I am feeling mixed emotions.I had a pretty shaky and hard day today.
After a promising start,I was caught off guard by a fuel leak on my 4x4.After filling up my tank,I saw that some fuel leaked out near my passenger side rear wheel.I drove to work immediately after that.But when I got there,I saw that I was still leaking and that there was a puddle of fuel underneath the vehicle.After sorting out the laundry pretty fast,I had to move my vehicle onto the street and the maintenance crew had to come over to clean up all the fuel on the driveway.Fortunately,my laundry work shift was not compromised and I managed to get a little bit done in the short time that I had to do it.After getting my 4x4 back on the road and having to have a minor ball joint repair done on Monday,I find that I need a new fuel tank and fuel line to get this back into the best running condition.It is running good but now,I have to have this get more repairs.That is life,I know.But it is still pretty sad and depressing.I was hoping to go out tomorrow and entertain the crowd but now,I have to stay home.Hopefully,by next week,I can have these repairs done and my vehicle back on the road.
To be on the safe side,I had my vehicle towed to my mechanic's garage so he can check it out on Monday.The only thing that is looking up is that someone is interested in buying my smashed up 1994 Toyota Corolla.If that guys pays well enough,I will have to say yes.This will make it a little bit easier for me.I am hoping that the guy is till interested when my mechanic calls him when the keys are there.I will also have to get the title ready so it can be sold to that guy.I am hoping that something can come of this.
After eating a light dinner,I decided to do some last minute personal PC work.I will be taking it easy for the rest of the night.I will just have to get used to being home for a while until I start driving again.
That was my day today and my plans for the weekend ahead.FJ
