2012 - Day 055 - Sister Due to Come Today!

Last Update: February 25, 2012

Sister Due to Come Today!

I will be finishing up completion of the cleaning and de-cluttering of my camper!  It has far more benefit than simply receiving my Sister and her husband here in my small home, it means...

A much better environment in which to live and work...making it a far better psychological and emotional experience and makes things far easier!

Saves time when things have homes and when put up where they belong, there will be no more hunting around for them!  It's worth a lot!

Taking the time to do this necessary work is not only top priority, the dividends will outrun trying to work in messy conditions than doing the work now to secure the obvious benefits of an ordered environment to work in!

Notes:

Suggestion made via comment to put task content into tables.

I have been working bit by bit on an old project I had started over a year ago...my first contribution to the Wealthy Affiliate Training Area.  It is on the topic of working around employment and getting things in WA done!  The project is almost completed and will be published soon. 

My WA Spaces Daily Planner & Gratitude and Achievement Journal

  • Gratitude:  
  • Today's Top Opportunity:  
  • What needs to be done today?
    1. Begin very early in the morning on the work in the camper!  Important!
    2. Finish the new page on GoPro.  Start another new page or post and do some of the housekeeping there.
    3. Work on Larry's website and see if the Amazon Store can be resolved.  Try to get to Mike's campaign.
    4. Recode functions.php file or copy existing file from AHSMD to AHSup.  Work remains to be done with the Google Analytics plugin.
    5. Do the section on AHSMD Report.
  • What have I done today?
    1. Most details have been done in the camper.  After all this, Sharon has canceled to Saturday instead.  It will leave a very tight day for me Saturday
    2. Due to the extent of the work on the camper, nothing else got done.



  • What Is My ToDo List for Tomorrow? (to be completed near the end of the current day.)
    1. Clean the church building.  Receive Sharon and Don.
    2. It is very unlikely I will be able to go into anything else besides this.  Things will automatically be moved forward into Sunday.
  • Plan B (To Be Done Should There Be Bad Weather or Other Interruption)
    1. Work further into the WABinars that can help me with my campaign.
    2. Work on clutter which is now mostly confined to the dining area in camper.
    3. Deep-clean shower area.
    4. Do the Painting in John's Bathroom.
    5. Mix solution for bleaching of John's house and the outbuildings for algae removal.
  • I appreciate the following Individual[s] because...  --

What are five things I accomplished today?

  1. The camper is nearly completed in all phases of declutter and cleaning!
  2. Joey and I got together concerning the scooter.  We resolved that the problem is not the fuel lines.  The gas is not passing to the spark plug.  This means stripping the bike down again so all the wiring can be checked.



My Task Bank

Solved Problems/Problems in works:

Green Font Denotes "Done." 

  • Get rid of clutter from dining table and two benches.
  • John wants the house pressure washed.  Also part of this deal is some painting to be done in his bathroom.  This is a small project that can be done fairly quickly.  John wants the house and buildings to be pretreated with chlorine and Spic & Span solution
  • Dirty and dusty conditions in camper.  When the clutter problem is resolved I will be able to clean out this camper very well.
  • The breaker panel is missing a screw and it needs to be dusted.
  • John wants the roof pressure washed.
  • The remaining loose cassette tapes need to be stored in the shelving or in the compartment above the dining table.
  • Purchase new mp3 player or get an external speaker for existing one...or both.
Unresolved Problems:
  • Clutter in camper.  Still working on the clutter.  Much of it is now in the cabinets which are now in place and functional.
  •  Eventually the carpet needs to be torn out and replaced with the wooden flooring I have in the shed.
  • Roof leak in front of camper.  The roof is still leaking.
  • Septic problem.  Run a septic line to the main line from the house and tap into it.  It will cost about $100 for materials to do this.
  • Support for awning coming off.  Take the pressure off it by putting the awning all the way up and reinstalling it to the camper by putting a bolt and nut through however way it can be done.
  • Hot Water Source #1 Install a tankless water heater for about $218.  The water heater can be installed above where the bookshelf is now.  There will need to be adaptors for the camper's piping to the conventional on the heater.
  • Hot Water Source #2  I am currently working on a pipeline from John's hot water heater to the camper.  This other option will be kept here but is secondary to this latest development.
  • Broken windshield.  It will cost about $200 to have the windshield replaced.  Someone can come out and do it.
  • Camper will not start.  Not only does the camper need to be started, it also needs to be moved slightly so the tires to not rot.  The battery needs to be tested and then charged if still good.  If not, it's time for a new battery.
  • Auxiliary batteries dead or not charging.  The batteries need to be tested.  They did not take a charge when I tried last year.  New ones need to be purchased if this is the case.
  • Shed needs to be cleaned out.  Any tools, articles, everthing not useful needs to be disposed of.  Not yet been cleaned out.
  • Lawn mower has no place to be stored.  It needs to be stored back where it was and covered.  It is now covered with the mop pail.
  • Lawn mower will not run.  Needs new spark plug and other work.  The carburator probably needs cleaning.  Also the blade needs replacing with the new blade I had bought but never installed.  This has not yet been done.
  • Charging unit in this camper not functioning?  Find out if it is the batteries.  The charging unit may be just fine.  This has not yet been done.
  • AC unit for this camper needs to be reassembled.  Try to get the AC unit working.  It will be used on the hottest days, or at night.  Found the components having been sitting in water on the roof.  It appears they are destroyed.
  • AC unit cap needs to be fixed so it can be bolted down.  Figure out how to fix this so it can be bolted down.  Else it will fly off if on the Interstate or other highway.  This has not yet been done.
  • The water tanks and entire system in this camper needs to be drained and sanitized.  The problem with smelly water seems to have been in the long hose which is no longer in the system.  Though this sanitization still needs to be done, having changed the water line has fixed this problem.
  • John wants a new sidewalk put in. 
  • John wants a rubbish enclosure built. 
  • John wants new shutters put up on the side of the house. 
  • John wants that area landscaped. 
  • John wants the rose garden weeded. 
New Problems:
  • Carpenter ants have done extensive damage to the roof and other places in the camper.  They are so damaged that they need to be replaced!

Hope you have a good visit
It's a day later. They did not come until this afternoon. Between cleaning I needed to do in two places and their coming, I accomplished little else. Tomorrow, things will be back to business again. It was a wonderful time! I'm full and it's time for bed! Busy day ahead for tomorrow!
