Good morning!!!!

Happy Birthday to daughter PopG

Be care BEF heat is brutal

Gorgeous day here.
I was worried about lifting mower with FEL, That’s why I flip the mower over on the ground instead of hanging it from the loader.
The stump jumper came off easy, but was really tight on the new shaft. Had to really crank the castle nut down to get to the cotter pin hole.
I should have turned mower back upright to get the new gearbox on and the bolts semi tight, then flip again to put stump jumper back on.
Instead I manhandled it up with some boards under to get it close, then drew it up by tightening the nut. Should have got new bolts for it. We double nutted it last yr when single nut kept coming loose.
When I tried the pto shaft the other day, it was tight due to rust. Need to clean that up to get pto shaft on.

Good afternoon, 83 the high of the day no rain and actually pretty nice day

Ordered groceries online and did not use the 20 percent off points saving them for a bigger grocery bill next week

Son got cleared by Dr and went back to work. Groceries helped them out and hopefully they will be ok

Kind of slow day but did manage to mount a small toolbox on the wood splitter

I don’t have wrench big enough other than adjustable, which I dislike using. To change blades from the top, I need large socket.

Some auto parts stores you can rent tools...wrenches,impacts,slide hammers etc.

Might be too much for the BX.

Good (Tuesday) morning. Overnight Low of -0.2C and it's presently 11.6C, mostly cloudy & calm.

Looks like today will be a repeat of yesterday... waiting for a call regarding the lime being delivered. That's OK as all is prepared for the delivery. I just need to be here IOT warn/direct the driver on the best way to enter the front paddock from the road; there's a U-turn area just after our 4, collective, driveways.

So, that's about it, take care all.

WOOHOO! Another 1/4" of rain! Nice and steady. Looks like maybe some more heading towards us.

Got the tractor out and moved all the downed branches back to the burn pile.

Then the piddling around led to outlining a new landscape bed with some timbers around an oddball tree outside of the landscaped area. Had to stop before getting the fabric and mulch put down due to me having an 'aura', which is a prelude to a migraine.

Came inside, some meds, and a cold drink.... all better after an hour. By that time it started raining.

Did burgers on the grill, which were delicious. Now some ice cream and relaxing.....
