Update

Roy, (my brother) called last night, JR is out of surgery and doing pretty good, All things considered.
He did say he moved his toes, so that looks good. We must believe this will continue. After all why Pray if you don't accept each little blessing?
Kind of like praying for rain and leaving your umbrella at home.

Next the Water lines.
Today David and I finished the water lines. Finally. It has been a slow progress but we had to buy connectors, faucets, and glue. After two hours of lying in the rocks, priming pipes, putting blue glue on and pushing with all my 125 lbs, I got it put together.
Now before anyone says, "Why did your husband not do it?"
Answer is "He can't" He can not get down on his knees without severe pain. And number one, I love to learn new things, I love to be active. I know someday I will have to stop all this but today, I live and I will continue to do so. I will continue to enjoy my life to the fullest.
I now have two more water faucets by my flower beds, so I do not have to move water hoses, YEA!!!!!

Tractor,
It is also fixed. I knew it was the carburetor, I just did not know how to get it off or at least the part that needed removed. I saw the nut at the bottom of the unit, (Carburetor) I just thought it was too important for me to get my tools in there. WRONG!!!!
That is all it needed. It seems you remove that screw, Take the wire off first, then when you pull that piece off, the gas will spray you, (once you move the plunger,) if you are too close.
It was stuck. I think they called it the switch or something like that. NO replacement needed, just a little knowledge.
So if you need you tractor fixed, I can probably do it, If you need a water line in, I know how to do that.
Most importantly,
If you need prayer.
I have a GREAT BIG GOD.

Hi Sue,

I'm glad to hear that your brother's son is doing fairly well after his surgery. It is a blessing, and I pray that it continues.

Well, I must say you're a determined woman. My grandpa used to say "where there is a will, there is a way." You sure prove that adage to be true.

Have a wonderful week!

Hugs,

Renie
