The screen went black on my pone. I might have to get a new phone.

My new used recently fixed lawn mower needs to go back in the shop again. Looking to trade it in for a different one.

I do have to get a new phone as even a new battery and a charge did nothing.

I don't want to live with my dad anymore as I fear, he's not good for my mental health. But alas stay with him I have to as no one but my mom and maybe sister would take me in. Mom lives at the coast(Garibaldi) and sister currently resides in Corvallis and in collage. Both too far away from where I work.

Had 5 inches of rain in 30 min. 
They are calling it unofficially another 100 years flood.
It is stupid crazy what the water did here.
I'm fine but a lot of where I walk the dog is damaged or gone.
More rain tomorrow

An update on my sister whom I mentioned in this thread.  She's better now.  But she's so got issues.  So not 100% good news

Just learned that someone else in my state earned the public affairs award I was shooting for, as mentioned in an earlier post here. How ironic that it's someone in my former unit. Expecting the powers that be to sing the man's praises as this is the only national recognition my state has received from headquarters this year.

I wasn't able to buy the Coyote taxidermy I was watching.

A Co worker almost died.  This guy is fit as heck.  Yet it took 4 hours of emergency surgery to remove blood clots from his lungs.

And then another coworker 2 days later had a stroke.  And then yet another coworker had a family member go to hospital. 
And lastly 4 people are very sick with something respiratory.  So far I'm alive.

I blame the workplace.  It's stressful.

The bottom portion of the 5key on my old Mac keyboard is dead. Hope to be able to find a Mac compatible keyboard soon.

I think my dad might actually be toxic........

 Three of the experiments I ran will have to be redone. Got real favorable readings. Unfortunately the environment gave false reading on the untreated substrates. Not a real set back. Just time consuming. The remaining six experiments gave very good readings. Proving the difference between the treated and untreated substrates. Still need the remaining three.  Will be adding a fourth as a continuation of two of the successful experiments.
