    Decent Day

    Well i got everything left in my yard on the trailer,which wasnt a lot some metal roofing and some iron pipe,couple bike frames,then my dad came by a friend had two fridges and two tillers plus a push mower. one of the tillers was an old Montgmery Ward 5 HP, my dad had an 8 hp like it when i was a kid.sold the S10 and got a whole lot of cleaning done in the yard, so been a pretty good day.planning to rise and shine early in the morn get the fridges cleaned on the trailer and get my run made,gotta get done tomorrow,yard is closed the rest of the week.

    Well i aint going to make the yard run today, scored 5 air conditioners this morn,going to get those and all the electric knifes cleaned up over the weekend,try to make my run on tuesday.Got the two fridges and a big old ancient 220 air unit done so-far today,Man they sure did build them back in the day,been a while since i took one apart that old, 1/4 inch screws in every panel a bunch of them.i think the only thing on it that wasnt scrappable was a hunk of dough stuff around some of the copper.

    Glad to hear your doing well Arkansas. Some would be stuck on the couch after losing a job and feeling sorry for themselves. I wish you all the best. Keep posting, you have friends here that want to see you succeed.

    Got up this morn, man my blood sugar was way low, which is rare, felt rough all morn. Perked up around noon,so got all the lectric knifes cleaned up, i didnt count but im guessing around 60 of them, filled a five gallon bucket with motors, weighed a couple there a ounce or two shy of a pound a piece,a nice sack of wire, and some copper connections.I got started on one of the A/C units,got two more to pick up in the morn.
