As many readers are aware, along with my diet I have been walking. Eventually additional exercise will come. In fact, my friend is wanting me to try a fourteen day trial membership to Hendrick Health Club.

I will probably do this, not because I want to go to that club, but to help my friend achieve a lifetime membership.

I probably lean toward either Anytime Fitness or Golds Gym, primarily because they are open 24/7, for my health club of choice. Plus they are within a mile of my house!

The travails of my feet continue.

I am thinking that the issue may be my work shoes. They have the big lugs on the sole and I am thinking they may just be flat dab worn out!

I kind of feel like the princess and the pea, but my pea is in my shoe. It actually feels like I have a rock under the insole of my shoes. (I did check).

I went late today and looked and looked at Academy. I found a shoe I liked, that came in wide widths, but they didn't have my size.

I am wanting a very "tame" sole.

I will probably go to Red Wing Monday or Tuesday!

I went to Janet yesterday and she worked me over. Today I poured epsom salt in my foot bath and ran it for about thirty minutes.

The bricks last night and the gravel at the lumber yard probably didn't help.

Did the 11 o'clock church today. Big crowd, ACU homecoming.

the little wildman has been hauling at the gin. Last week he had a truck issue. His truck filled the engine crankcase with diesel. Usually this means either an o-ring has blown or an injector has gone bad.

True to form, they found an injector issue. The shop didn't have an injector, so I located and picked one up Friday afternoon.

Turns out when they drained the crankcase, they found a piece of brass. We decided to remove the oil pan and do a visual inspection. Turned out that a wrist pin bushing is coming apart. So, now we are going to put pistons and sleeves in the engine.

I asked the shop to make an inquiry to the Detroit Diesel website as to what work this engine has had done. The search yielded no results. The truck is showing 1,055,000 miles. I guess it is due. My personal inquiries yielded no information about repairs when Fred was running it.

We have done an injector, two turbos, a/c repair, transmission, clutch, and carrier bearing.

I need to have the hood finished that is in the barn, and come up with a bumper. then it will be stuff like shocks and wishbones that the truck needs.

And I still have some repairs to finish and general "service" on my forklifts. The farming is fixing to get busy too and I have one truck I need to do some work on.

Sounds like a week.

You have one too!

FATHER, I ask for a blessed week, that I would make wise choices.
