back from shopping, got my gallon of paint. Then hit ATM and lastly the supermarket. Wore my mask everywhere,
guy coming out of supermarket asked me where I got my mask = online and months ago, another out of stock
He was wearing a plain white one.

Now off to paint that well pump shed on a nice sunny day

A rainy 36ºF for today's low. There was a brief intermission from the rain, but it returned and it is a rainy 41ºF presently, and I expect a rainy afternoon with high temperature hopefully in the mid40ºF's. Definitely hunker down weather. I do anticipate an afternoon P.O. and "supply" run to the wine & spirits store for a curbside pick up.

Randy- I hope the change in meds will be the solution for your afib good luck with the monitoring,

Steppenwolf and David- Thanks for sharing your dog pics and yes I too would not mind living a dog's life in the care of the company here. It was a battle of wills between Wifey and Brogen regarding sleeping on the sofa; and not surprisingly Wifey won.

David- Nice block work.

Eric- I really like the scenery and pond picture.

BEF- I am sorry to read your post about the murders/suicide. C-19 concerns are literally driving some people to the point of committing extreme and irrational behaviors. Sadly I expect more events like this one reported rather than less.

"... That's what I call Homeland Security."- Thomas I agree I love the picture and welcome to GM Walker450.

Paul- I am sorry to read about all the enabling behaviors reinforcing younger son's entitled begging.

Drew- I am happy to read that your apply run went w/o difficulties and have a nice day enjoying your sunshine and painting,

My + thoughts, prayers, and wishes.

Interestingly enough, it's the younger son who does the "work Mom" thing, and he does it all the time. She usually succumbs to it, but lately has been telling him no. He works his Grandma the same way. I'd be embarrassed to be asking people for money all the time, but it doesn't seem to bother him at all. It's almost like he expects it.

When I shopped for TP on Amazon recently, what was available with the name brands was VERY expensive, but there were a variety from companies I'd never heard about. None of them had very good reviews, so you might take some consolation that there's a very good chance that whatever paper your wife found, Paul, was crappy.

Sorry, couldn't resist.:laughing:

Why can't your son order from Amazon?
I'v one son that used to work Mom like that, so he didn't have to pay.

My wife sent a bunch of stuff with my son to his new apartment.

Yeah, me, too, Jay. It can be a tough tight rope to walk with stepchildren. Being "not-the-daddy," my role is limited to trying to offer the right advice (at least in my opinion).

65°F and no rain. A beautiful day in the neighborhood

Hope to get my block wall finished today. Have to make another PO run as yesterday’s was a bust. Might do transfer point as well.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

Paul you are in a classic no win family situation.

IMO I am sure that your advise is solid which makes your situation even more frustrating.

With all the posts here regarding hearing loss I've decided that once, hopefully, this C-19 pandemic passes I will get a much needed hearing exam. I've been hearing Spring Peepers 24/7 throughout the year for far too long and lately I have trouble picking up conversations in almost any setting.

Curbside booze pick up is arranged and I need to make a PO run today. Hopefully my Amazon dried bean order is waiting.

Still windy today, had a 42 mph gust just before dark yesterday and several over 30 today. 59f and wouldn’t be bad without the wind.

I put a suicide knob on my MF, both my tractors have hydro steering but I wanted to shorten the radius when mowing so I mounted it inside the rim. We will see how or if it works.

Catfish, egg noodles with cheese and broccoli for dinner tonight.

Have a good day and stay safe.
