39 tonight. Rainy pattern for the next week or so.

Serviced Kubota 1 year ago today it had 440 hours on it. Checked it tonight when I shut it down 813.1 hours. Kubota recommends a service every year or 400 hours. It’ll probably see more of both before I get to it.

Chicken coops are pulverized and ready to start decrusting. But that’ll have to wait till after I get youngest back from the ENT doctor tomorrow. Was at pediatrician today for a regular checkup and the boy has an ear infection and pediatrician thinks his tube has already fallen out.

Randy you’ll only need about 5 acres and 1.4 million to build your self 4 new state of the art barns. there’s reasons I’m not expanding.

If I had $1.4 mil, I wouldn’t look at a chicken! LOL

Need to pour second cup of coffee. 21° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 41° with a good amount of sun. Got some work done in barn prepping rototiller and rotary cutting for the approaching Spring weather. Found out I have another month of PT to go. Off to PT then a stop at Sam's Club. Nor sure what rest of day will bring.

Jay, found another medical company that may surpass Humana in lousy customer service. I think they are hiring Millennial's to setup their customers service department.

Andrew, glad you got the seat belt. For years we had a place near me that was called the Whoopee Bowl. You could find anything you could ever need there. I think I still have some of it stored in the barn loft.

Drew, I think you will be harvesting before I get to plant anything.

Mostly, thanks for the info. Rear tire on my bike need a new tube. Tired of putting air in it every time I use it.

Happy Birthday Buckeyes Dad!!!!

Congrats to U of M. Winning another game. Hope the outcome of tomorrows game goes as well.

Ed, prayers for you, your Mom and family.

Payers for all in need.

Good Morning All.

Toppop I think you miss out on the snow and fun associated with it this weekend. Should I save some and send it to you?

Trust Drew to come up with this!!

Trust Drew to come up with this!!

Now Thomas almost always starts his day off with an English muffin.
Perhaps he is an heir to the Thomas fortune, and only masquerades as a professor...

Good Morning! 60˚ cloudy, warm south wind.

Yesterday I surprised my self. I mowed the yard, the extended yard, weedeated everything and blew off the pavers and sidewalks. Never got tired. I've noticed this extra energy started about two weeks ago about a week after I stopped taking statins. Before I would mow about half and take a nap. The food has not changed and when everyone said they had more energy being on this diet I always though I feel about the same, now I know the statins were bringing me down. The Jump start of the 5 day fast helped also and have stayed 10 pounds lighter. Of course the cooler temps could also be a contributing factor. And, no it's not caffein, I've been off caffein for three weeks.

Today I have some cleaning behind the barn to do and then mulch mom's gardens and do her grocery shopping.

Today looks like the day TBN will top 5 million posts. Who will be the 5 millionth poster?????

A belated Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Muhammad on their marriage and Happy birthday Buckeye Senior.

Good Morning!!!! 43F @ 4:45AM. Partly cloudy early then becoming cloudy with periods of rain this afternoon. High 52F. Winds SSE at 10 to 20 mph. Chance of rain 70%.

What an amazing life your father has led, Buckeye! Please wish him a happy birthday for me, and thank him for his service to our country.

Sorry to hear about your mother, Ed. I hope at least she's comfortable.

Hope the weather holds for you, Drew. Still another week 'till April...

Got a little excited yesterday at the mechanic's when I saw that the transaxle had been bolted to the engine, and it looked ready to go into the van. Apparently the clutch crisis has been resolved. Then after the mechanic went to lunch, his employee told me that nothing had been done on it until late Wednesday night, maybe a few hours for the entire week. And when I pressed for a time when it would actually be running, the mechanic deferred any kind of answer. But it was some progress, so on to the next hurdle I guess.

Had a line on a replacement oil pan for the old motorcycle at the local BMW dealer, but when I looked at it closely the back of the pan was also split. Their lead mechanic tried to tell me that crack was part of the manufacturing process.:confused2: After I thanked him for his thoughts, I went out to my truck, called a supplier back east, and ordered a used replacement he guaranteed would work for 1/3 of what this dealer wanted for junk. The place just isn't the same since the former owner passed two years ago.

TGIF gang!:drink:

42°F and cloudy this morning, going up to 52° today with rain expected later.

Wife installed the new cordless shades in the sunroom yesterday, so that room is now officially finished. Looks nice. She also hit me last night with the final numbers from the remodel last year, which she summed up while preparing the taxes. Ouch. We could have bought another house for that much money. Of course, this is where we plan to grow old together, so it was worth it to fix what needed to be fixed and make it ours. It's just money, right?

Best wished for your Mother, Ed. I know that feeling.

Happy birthday to your Father, BEF. Those guys were true super heroes. No capes needed.
