Dear Jeremiah,

I was busy at work today so I was unable to write you at work like I usually do. I was able to go into another apartment early so I could once again replace the water heater. I also turned it at the same time. The water heater itself drained good and fast. Sometimes there’s a lot of sediment in the bottom of the tank, rust and calcium build up. Ran into a problem though with the shut off valves, they were leaking a little. So Joseph decided to replace the valves. So the whole building’s water needed to be shut off. We didn’t have two solder valves and so Joseph used a compression valve that he solder. Apparently they are not made to be soldered and while he was soldering it, it had a bit of a blow out. Haha. The soldering part works but it won’t shut the water off completely, the rubber seal is damaged. So he order some more valves and the compression one will be replaced tomorrow. I have at least one more water heater to replace coming up when the unit vacates in a day or so. Clouds came in this morning and it rained off and on all day. We had hail at on point too. They finally got around to hiring someone to work in the office, it’s been over 6 months since the position became available. The good thing is that the dreaded Keni won’t be at the property “helping out” gawd she was so rude. I watched my favorite King of the Hill episode tonight. “Let go of my purse! I don’t know you!” haha that one is so funny. You know that King of the Hill got cancelled, right? Well now Cleveland has his own show now taking over King’s time slot. I watched it but have no opinion of it yet. Cleveland is like the token of family guy, so his show is kind of like family guy expect at the bar there’s a bear as the odd person. That’s right a bear, a talking bear. So yeah. Then I watched Taxi Driver, I never watched it before. Interesting, mostly I watched it because I hadn’t watched it. The only thing I knew of it was the famous line. “You talking to me? You talking to me?” and that Robert Dinero drove a taxi and Jody Foster was a teenage hooker. Now I’m watching Martin Scorsese talk about himself and his movies. This famous director dude who is like 76 years old got arrested for raping a 13 year old girl in 1977 last weekend. He was 43 at the time. He fled the country after pleading guilty, Roman Polanski is his name. The only reason I bring this up is that several famous people are demanding his release. I find that incredable that they would want his release. One of them is Martin Scorsese, another is Woody Allen. Even the now woman, the victim is asking for his release. I treated all the dogs for fleas tonight. I think I brought a couple home. I know I that they didn’t get any from the dog park. =( sigh. I was really wanting to go to the dog park last Sunday but I held back because of Pony. I’m still waiting to hear from the couple who came out last Sunday if they want her. I decided not to advertise her until she has her final shot. I got that paperclip guy on the word page as I type. I just ignore him. Sometimes he falls asleep and snores. Normally he is up on the tip or edge of the clip, but now its like the paperclip is lying flat, slightly open with eyes like the geicho stack of money eyes. If I go to save my document he makes a box like a floppy disc. Anyways I find him to be entertaining. Did I tell you that Sadies like Bear? She likes to sit near him and let him pet her on the head. She is more excepting of Mike now. She isn’t doing the slinking walk when she has to pass him by. And her tail is wagging more when she’s in the general area that he is. That’s cool that Quincy got a chance to be the PG, I hope he didn’t have to give it up cause of the dentist visit. Well I better get to sleep. You’ve been up for an hour now. I love you and miss you everyday.

Love Mom.
