More of the same..

IND RIVER...the movie tonight...
Going to try it again...I watched a trailer and it does look good, just the opening scene where a guy shoots a coyote..it looked real to me, BUT surely it was not,  Son is supposed to join me. It's a mystery set on the Wind River Indian Reservation in Wyoming.  The reservation 2.2 million acres,  has  5 times the normal crime rate with a history of brutal homicides...this movie is based on such a thing...SO I hope Im not sitting here with my eyes covered the whole time..lol
I like thrillers that have a supernatural tilt...but when it's human cruelty I just don't like that. 
No fire tonight it's milder I plan to put the gas heat on later to take the chill out of the room, but a fire would be too warm I believe

Walmart has one size bigger on the gas  heater I am using it's a non vented and I bought it to use in the van in winter, and it's perfect for that and it heats one room pretty good...When it gets really cold tho it doesn't warm the big sitting room area so I was thinking of buying the larger size one...Of course it would use more propane. I probably can't purchase it till after the New Year got my tax BILLS yesterday omg. Our taxes have risen...my taxes used to be with a Homestead Exemption (for people my age) about $70 NOW it's $197...they built all NEW schools in town and WE are paying for it.  And Mom's  house the taxes really went up since now Im the sole owner, and you can only have a homestead exemption on one house,,the taxes on hers is $266 and it went from $60 to that in one year.   AND here they have barely used the schools.  And we pay this high road maintenance fee.  It's really not fair.  I wish I could move to Lee County.  It's a very poor county but that means they don't bleed their residents with all these taxes.  

More van work and Im almost done, I will be so happy to have it behind me. I finished the front overhead today and I do need some supplies to finish up the rear compartment,  I want to get some interior spray paint. I can get that at an Auto Parts store.  and I want some more of the grey fabric if they have any more,,to make a couple of "pockets" or if they have Grey mesh that would work...to stash stuff in.  AND I accidentally drilled two holes in my fibreglass top so I filled the holes with some clear glue I had, I need to cut that off flush and  paint over it.. 

I actually stashed some stuff into my new bin area it's more of a little cubby ledge.  I will try to  get photos tomorrow...After I finish up the ceiling I have to put in the shop to have brakes and I think a wheel bearing replaced...I had that done back in January but remember the garage I said I don't want to go anymore, I think they put cheap bearings in and they just don't last.  

Then after that I plan to replace the carpet that's on the van floor..it's currently a sea foam green and it's pretty worn in the front the rest of the van is pretty much ok but If I can find a mid grey that's what I want.  
So that's what is going on in my small life...hope yours is more exciting.
