The breaker for the living room flipped in the middle of the night. The AC was on at the time. Think I need to change out the breaker. It's a 15 amp and I need a 20 to run AC or electric heaters in here.
Any way, the video driver went back to the AMD driver, which doesn't work. Restarting computer and have to figure out how to keep that from happening.
Okay, computer is back up but can't find a way to keep it from going back to the AMD driver. Windows automatically looks for and installs the driver for the device, rather than installing the native driver. So any time I restart the computer, I will have to go into safe mode, remove the driver and then start in normal mode. No harm but time consuming.
Also in the middle of the night, one of the pump filters blew right off the pipe. (No relation to the breaker issue.) Glad I woke up because water was shooting across the yard. Nothing I can do to fix it securely, just have to get a new filter unit. At least it's under $10. Think the problem is that the dogs keep trampling over the lines which run off of it. Need to add some form of support. Though it won't be an issue once I build an enclosure for the pump. Any lines coming out will be on or under the ground surface. For now, have to hook up the lines without the filter. That's not a big problem. Since the pipe is suspended higher than before, there's hardly any sediment going through the filter. I know because I checked yesterday.
Going to give another shot at planting tomatoes tonight. Plus lay down the weed fabric and mulch for one more row. First row was black mulch. This one is brown. Was going to get red but they only had two bags and it takes 5 for the large rows. Didn't like the black so much. Looks like charred wood chips. That's okay, it's making the garden more colorful. Black, brown, red. Why don't they sell green mulch? Maybe purple or blue? I don't care if it looks natural, only that it looks good!
Trying to plan for a road trip with daughter this summer. Have to plan out the finances, mostly. I have vacation time and if I put in for a Mon through Fri off, it will be bracketed by two weekends, resulting in 9 days off. Hoping to make CO Springs and maybe the Grand Canyon. Not sure how well that will work. Once daughter makes it to CO Springs and sees the zoo and 7 Falls, I may not drag her away easily.
Have to take a precaution and take a strong test drive in the car before then. Maybe to Sandia Peak one evening after work. I really believe this car will encounter no major problems but want to be sure any minor issues are in order. Need to get the valve changed on the spare. Pack a small tool set to keep in the car.
