Rant Thread - What really grinds your gears?

Wichita, Kansas, is transitioning to a permanent every-other-day lawn watering schedule, effective September 15, 2025. Permanent is a bit intimidating to me. Especially after having a year that has already exceeded the average rainfall by five inches in eight months. I guess the powers to be are thinking long term. They should be considering enlarging the feeding reservoir. It is full to capacity right now. Or perhaps another catch basin. Conservation is all good but I'm satisfied that the city will continue to grow. I don't see restricting water usage being the long term solution.
 
Those realatives of mine got me into thinking of getting an eye check up, my mother got new glasses so I scheduled it up, I type it down. My mind is so on fire,
I hate it when I had two appointments really quick at the same time, but my audiologist is like in and out in five minutes or less.
Yeah. I kind of miss out on my friends on FB but they migrated to my Instantgram, Ah my tumblr URL I put on my youtube thing, why does it seem much harder to tell google "Hey my cell is pretty much has all the apps it needs, why are you forcing making me download bloatware?"
 
Today was one of those days that needed toilet paper to wipe away the memory. Besides being extremely wet this morning, my big lawnmower refused to start. It turns over but does not fire. Fuel pump is pumping gas. It is injected and no carb so it's beyond me. It ran fine yesterday. I was afraid to pull the big mower off of the trailer for fear of not being able to get it back onto the trailer to take it to the shop. So I worked hard to get it situated so I could get my 3' Toro mower on the trailer. After I finished mowing I ran to Discount Tire to have new tires put on my mow trailer. They were far too questionable to drive clear in to Wichita tomorrow to take my mower in for a repair. The trailer eats tires like I eat chips and salsa. The wreck last summer sort or replaced my truck but no compensation for the now tire eating trailer. It has worn the inside tread off of both tires that were new before this mow season began. I mowed my lawns today with a three foot cut instead of fifty two inches. It will be the same time consuming chore to mow the lawns until I get my big mower back. I'm guessing two and a half weeks... perhaps three. I'm sure glad I'm having fun!
 
Have you tried doing an alignment on the axles? I'm sure there is a YouTube video. Do you have a Tractor Supply or Runnings in the area? They sell axles which simply bolt onto the frame of the trailer if one of the axles is bent.

I talked about the problem to the tire dude yesterday. He said there was no fixing the axle but replacements were possible. I will have to check into it once my demand on the trailer is over for the season. The exclamation mark on my bad day was I had a flat on my bike and AF was throwing a 502.
I managed to shower and go to bed without anything negative. :)
