Once I bought a brand new book, Do I Dust or Vacuum First? at a garage sale. It looked the same when I donated it years later.

Aside from the technical matter of how to deal with dust... @Jules, that seems like an odd title for a book. A whole book. There must've been more to the subject matter than what the book's title literally means. What the H was the book actually like?
 

We had a wonderful time last Sunday at Poole Goes Vintage. Meeting up with so many that we haven't seen in a while, it was almost like pre-Covid.
There's a couple who run a small hotel, not far from where we live, they were at the festival, since then a text from them has invited us to their Tuesday dance evenings. We can't go onto the dance floor just yet, maybe a couple of slow dances, but engaging with good friends, as we did last Sunday, is proving theraputic for my housebound lady. So we are off out tonight.

Are you talking ATV or UTV's? Sounds like a cracked rubber hose between the tank and fuel filter Imogene. See a wet spot on a hose or filter. It smells.
Of course, the Tank may be cracked? Put a piece of cardboard under it, so you can pull it out and smell. A lil Air Pressure from a Compressor
into the tank sealing it with a shop towel, may push the gas up to the Carb so it can run at least. If it's from the pump you might see the leak, then.

Don't light em if ya got em though. The lil fuel pumps do go natty also.

ATVs —- 2000 Honda Rancher & a 2008 Kawasaki Prairie.

They are both in the garage. The Honda leaked so bad I put sand under it. The Kawasaki leaked in the same manner but quit.

I am sending the Kawasaki out because it is behind my subcompact tractor — which is STILL leaking hydraulic fluid but runs. I just have to keep checking the fluid levels.

The Kawasaki has wider running boards I can carry stuff on.

My brother has a 2000 Rancher and works on it. He should be down here in the Fall (he is 10 hours away) and hopefully can fix mine.

I cannot believe both of them are leaking gas and appear to be dripping from the same place. I did have someone work on them shortly after husband passed away. He is supposed to be a good ATV mechanic but didn’t call me back this time. It is possible he “fixed” both of them the wrong way—-
 
How is my day? What am I doing? I've decided that what I'm doing is Optimizing Every Moment and making my day just freaking swell. Optimizing. I highly recommend Optimizing. It's sort of like Unlocking My Potential that's promised if I just get a mentor.

I started out Optimizing when I took my coffee out to the teeny tiny patio this morning and have been happily Optimizing ever since, seeing as how there still have been no volunteers to be my mentor.

Dang! It's soooo hot 🥵 again today. Not too hot to Optimize Every Moment, though. I even Optimized by taking a nap. We'll call it an Optimization Nap.

:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:
 
Up for a 2 cup soak, this am. The hummingbirds were out seeking sugar water from the feeders and 2 cow elk wandered by, grazing peacefully. They looked like they were in good health! However it was trash day had they knocked over several "wheelie bins" @hollydolly that belonged to neighbors.

Went to the gym, but trainer was sick. I wondered why she sent me the workout last night w/out explanation. Anyway I left w/out moving a muscle, I was beat. Went for physiotherapy, and that's about it.
 
Good morning. It's already so hot here and the air so heavy that I had to take a butcher knife out to the patio with me to cut through it to breathe.

@papa tiger for you OEM means Original Equipment Manufacturer; for me it means Optimizing Every Moment. I'm gonna do that again today. @RadishRose said I'm supposed to dust first, but it's too late for that because I vacuumed yesterday so the dusting is gonna get done after the fact. I'll spray some Endust on my duster first... Sure wish I'd had @Jules' Do I Dust or Vacuum First? book. Probably could have used some of the helpful household hints, too. I'd have Optimized better :ROFLMAO:.

DD is working at her away-from-home job today instead of tomorrow. While she's gone, I'll OEM. When she gets home around noon, we'll truck on over to the credit union to buy some cash and proceed on my payday rounds.
 
Morning folks.....here I sit having had probs signing in again, I
am really having issues with remember passwords, even finding
them written down is difficult.....hah.....no big plans for the day
yet, but it is early, .....hope Hollydolly is haveing success in
recovering from the accident, all the best for you HD!!! :love:
 
Morning all, on my early walk at 6:45, temp was 70 no breeze a bit humid as I walked around the building before breakfast
This morning, friend,Mary picking me up at 9:30 our weekly' road trip' to Walgreens,need a couple of items. I originally was going to walk there until she called me last night saying this was her only free day of the week
The rest of my day may take another walk if not too humid, read NYT,book
 
Good morning, all. I've been up since 3:30 AM, mostly stressing over some seemingly not good medical test results. I'll leave a message for my doctor when he gets in.

Yesterday we took 3-1/2 year old GS in the pool - he could have stayed there all day! Unfortunately, he can't swim yet so he has to stay on the steps or be held. If DS & DDIL don't arrange swimming lessons next year, DH & I will!!!

We've got the 16 month old again today - I'll try to nap when he does. Likely gonna be a looong day though.
