Changes don't come easy

"YeeeHawww, old Billy Bob eat a whole pack of hot dogs....now he sick".
Well shoot, I like hot dogs. I 'member back a few years when a hot dog was steak at our table. Would go out there in the yard an' fire up the charcoal grill....throw a dozen or so dawgs on there an' eat like a king. But my favorite hot dog is half ways burn slap up. For a perfect grilled dog, ya gotta watch 'em real close so's they don't burn all the ways up.....flames an' stuff. You know, turn into another piece of charcoal. Load that sucker up on a slab of bread, mayo, ketchup, mustard an' a hand full of chop onions. I look in the freezer an' I ain't got a damn thing to eat. 'Cept'n for a package of hot dogs. Yup, yesterday I eat up that whole pac of hot dogs, along with a half a loaf of bread. Now I'm sick. 

I was sit'n here look'n out the winder at that bbq grill with it's injured (melted an' charred) little table thingys. I can fix that I'm think'n. A little grind'n here an' there....be just like brand spank'n new."Why Billy Bob, ain't nobody gonna see it but you"? Well, it just piss me off I got a brand spank'n new bbq grill an' I melt the little table thingys. I'm gonna have to do something ya know. It's a personal thing ya know.

When I moved from the farm, I had to make some changes to city life. Wear shirts an' shoes, stuff like that. Then when I became a man at the ripe age of 14, I had to make some more changes. Get a freak'n summer job so's I could eat an' buy tire patch kits for my bicycle. Join the Navy at 20, that was another change I had to make. All my life I been mak'n changes. Now at 72 I'm think'n I got to make some more changes. Slow'n down ain't one of 'em. Shoot, if'n I was go'n any slower, I would be go'n backards.

Lately I don't know what way I'm go'n. One day I get myself all excitis bout hook'n up "that jeep" an' go'n for a trip. The next day that idea is long forgot about. But that's Ok. Ya see, I been mak'n a change in my life if'n ya ain't seen by now. Ain't gonna be no more this run'n up an' down the interstates an' back roads like some lost homeless guy with nowheres to go. Kind of like a chicken with his head chop slap off.... run'n all around the yard an' not go'n anywheres in particular. It's just a change I got to make an' maybe I'll get over it by tomorrow.

So this is gonna affect my blog writ'n. Well shoot, it already has. But that's Ok too. As long as I can continue to do "stupit" stuff, people will still read. Stupit stuff like burn'n up a brand spank'n new bbq grill. Or like what I did yesterday. I decided I was gonna go outside an' cut some grass. Mainly the area where I swak golf balls. I jumps on the mower, fire it up, drops the blades an' away I go a hunnert mile a hour....grass fly'n all directions. BAM...BOOOM....CRASH...SQUEECH....all kind of weird noises go'n on under the cut'n deck. Scare hell out me. I runned over a big ol' chunk of heavy gauge wire what get all wrap up in the blades. Sound kind of like a old boat motor I used to have. An' I ain't even make one round around the yard. Won't be no golf ball swak'n today.

Boy howdy let me tell ya....it were one hot mammyjammer (spell check says this should be jackhammer) yesterday. It got up to 103 yesterday afternoon. That was actual temp, not heat index feels like. But that's Ok too. I got air conditioning. Today is supposed to be a repeat of yesterday.

Ok, gonna go see if'n Joseph fix the mower.

Oh wait I almost forgot. This is for the RV owners out there. Black water tank treatment. I been think'n bout treat'n my black water tank with Rid X. Other RV'ers tole me that what they use. Well I did some research. Won't be us'n no Rid X in my tanks. Ya see, it takes a couple weeks to a month for the bacteria to get hungry an' start do'n it's thing. By that time you have already emptied your tanks, flush'n all the Rix X slap out of your tanks. Makes sense to me. "Happy Camper" treatment may be my next choice. Google is yer best friend.

  1. You'll too much Billy Bob hot dogs,hey how is Sadie-Dog doing and for that black tank you can mix up some of that TSP soap I was telling you about and I far as I know you can leave it in...

    1. I removed Sadie Mae's bandage today. Holy crap, she got a great big ol' slit on her side bout 3 inch long. I'll measure it before tomorrows post.
      Will soap break up poo solids?

  2. When I had an RV nothing seemed to work in the tank until I tried a mixture of Pine Sol, Dawn dishwashing liquid, and Calgon. I was told to find Calgon Beads, but the only thing I could find was Calgon powder and that's what I used, and it worked just fine.

  4. Wal-Mart has all sorts of stuff you can dump down there. Suppose to fix it up and make it smell like a rose. Yeh, sure.

    1. Now wait a minute Dizzy. Are you say'n I can make my tanks smell like roses? I got a 42 gallon black tank an' there ain't no ways you gonna make 42 gallons of poo smell like roses.
      I've been using Oxyclean packets an' they work rather well for odor control. But I've had a couple occasions where there was a blockage. This is my concern....I can live with "rose" smells.

    1. Do they sell potable water at Walmart? Oh wait, you're talk'n bout tap water.
      I rekon if'n I had a smaller black tank and emptied it weekly or so, I could use that kind of water too. It takes me 2 months to reach the "dump level" (3/4 full), so solids and smell issues can occur.

    2. My black water tank is 35 gallons. I empty when it is full or near full. That is about every month. I make sure I add 1/2 gallon of water with each solids use during the month to prevent solidification of anything. So far it has worked well for 14 years of RV living.

  6. I just knew there was going to be some kind of "modification" done to the grill but now you have a reason after burning your cute side table!

  7. Been using Happy Campers for years and works perfect, makes everything liquid and keep the tanks clean. Pretty cheap too.
    Just eat all them hotdogs like I used to.

  8. Billy Bob,
    I think the safest thing for you do with those side tables is take them off and throw them away. If you go to fix'n them the first thang you will do is burn them up again.
