Free is Not Always Free . . .

We didn’t walk this morning since I wanted to get an early start on finding parts to hook up my new FREE washer drain pump. Well, the pump was free, but I spent about $30 at Lowe’s this afternoon buying tubing, hoses, couplings, circle clamps, adapters, and angle iron to hopefully make all this work.

But it may be Saturday before I really have a chance to get started on it. Right now I think the only part I’m kind of unsure about is exactly how I’m going to mount it. But that’ll have to wait until I see where the pump ends being positioned after I’ve got it hooked up.

About 4:30 we headed out to the Asian BBQ & Grill for dinner with Brett and Frankie O’Neal. Sherry and Clark Bennett introduced us to this last Friday, and we were really looking forward to trying it again.

Jan and I each had the same as last time, the Pork and Shrimp Spring Rolls,

and the Grilled Lemon Grass Chicken over Vermicelli.

but this time I added a bowl of Pho with Eye of Round Steak, Beef Brisket, and Beef Sirloin.

And the big plate of fresh greens, with cilantro, basil, bean sprouts, and other stuff was delicious as well.

As before with Brett and Frankie, we spent longer talking than actually eating,

and didn’t leave the restaurant until after 7pm.

Our next stop was right down the road at the HEB for a few things, and then we topped off the evening by ‘accidently’ stumbling across a Marble Slab Creamery. True be told, we stumbled across it while looking for a Dairy Queen, but we won’t talk about that

Tomorrow, Jan has one last appointment down in the Clear Lake area, then she wants to get a pedicure, and I need to see a client or two. Then after that I don’t know.

We may get together with the kids, but our schedules may not match up.

So we’ll see.


Thought for the Day;

Behind every successful man is his woman. Behind the fall of a successful man is usually another woman.
