I hate it when that happens . . .
To Everyone who received a Friend Request from Jan White.
Jan’s account itself has not been hacked. Otherwise they couldn’t send a friend request to you, since we were already friends.
What they do is set up a duplicate account under Jan’s name and using her picture from her profile. Then they send out friend requests using names they find under the ‘mutual friends’ listings under ‘possible friends’.
Facebook says the scam account has already been deleted.
Thanks for the warnings from everyone, though.
Well, Mister had his vet appointment today, and showed some improvement, but not as much as hoped.
His blood sugar was down to 416 from 467, but of course that’s still way too high. And he’s hasn’t gained any weight back since last time either. So the doctor said to increase his insulin dose from 2 units twice a day to 3 units twice a day. He also said to bring him in about around 4:30 or 5pm in another ten days, because he gets his morning shot around 11am, and it takes 4 or 5 hours for it to really take effect. So they want to get a sugar level then.
They’re always amazed at how nonchalant Mister is when they give him a shot or draw blood. The vet says he’s never seen a cat that they didn’t have to hold down for that.
In the FWIW department, while the last vet bill was $440 odd dollars, this one was only $14, just the cost of the glucose test since it was a follow-up visit. So that’s something, anyway.
After I got back from the vet with Mister, I went down and set up the new Mighty Mule Driveway Alarm system to catch trucks leaving the pad and coming back our way. But I think I’m going to have to reposition it, and change some settings.
I actually set it up on the right hand side going into the pad, since on the other side, it would be out in the open and the sensor cable would have to pass over the big 12 inch water line that runs from the frack pond pumps to the pad. I was hoping the system would still pick up the outgoing trucks as well, since the first system we set up for trucks coming in to us from the highway, works both ways.
But the road is pretty wide at the new location, and while it picks everybody going in to the pad, it’s hit or miss for pickups coming out. I think it kind of depends on if they’re staying to the right, or more in the middle. It does however pick up big trucks leaving just fine.
The other thing I want to do is change the frequency settings on the transmitter. Right now the new sensor is on the same frequency as the first one, so I’m just using the one original receiver. But I think the receiver is getting confused when it gets two signals too close together from both units.
The units have a 4 position Dip Switch that allows you to set 16 different frequencies.
So I think I move the new unit to a new frequency and now use the new receiver to eliminate that problem. But we’ll see how it goes.
Tomorrow being Friday, it’s groceries at Wal-Mart, and then pick up lunch on the way home. Jan says it’s time for Whataburger again. YUMM!
