I managed to spray 1 and 1/4 cans of Pam on the underside of the Z-turn deck. Gave it a good coating. The hornets weren't happy, but not stinging. I let their nest have it with raid hornet/wasp killer anyway. Will finish up with the new blades tomorrow, then cut the grass again. The other set is out being sharpened.

Good Evening Frits,
Shoulder continues to improve and the muscle burn felt really good. Able to do push ups again, progress
Glad to hear, I haven’t been able to pushups for at least a month and a half. One day I got down to do them and my right shoulder was killing me. I finally went to an orthopedic doctor and he gave me a shot of cortisone. It’s much better but I still don’t think I can do pushups yet. I always did at least 30 in the morning and hoping for better days soon.
Glad hear things are working out for you 🙏

Skunk Baxter played guitar for the Doobies, and Steely Dan before that. Quite the interesting guy.

Yes, a smart guy. I like him a lot, very interesting to listen to some of his technical discussions.

My wife said she watched someone do 30 pushups, and asked if I could do that. I said sure, I could watch someone do 60.

Good (Wednesday) morning. Overnight Low of 8.6C and it's presently 16.3C, clear & calm. There was 1.5mm in the gauge @0900... the clamps are still there. ;)
Wag, thanks for letting me borrow your clamps...I put them right back where I found them. 😁
Ah HA!!! (y)

Yesterday arvo I decided to give myself a haircut, then went into town to the hardware shop. Not to buy any new clamps but to order a pair of collapsible saw horses (on sale) and, whilst there, a pair of specialised LED light globes.

Today is 'into town' day for groceries.

That's about it, take care all.

after supper went out and put on more trex boards, I miscounted, will need another small box of clips. this morning I cut a piece of trex on the wrong side, cut out what was to be kept, going around a post, but should be able to salvage it by turning it the other direction for a post cutout on the other end.
Now to decide what to do about my TV antenna pole that is in the way, Put a hole in the deck and leave it there, or move it. I like the antenna there, as I can go out a window onto the back roof to work on the antenna wiring. Also should have made deck2 longer to not waste so much trex.

Drinking first cup of coffee. 54° with fog this morning. Heading to 81° with mostly cloudy skies. Sassy looks sharp with her grooming yesterday. Was mostly a conserve energy day after that. Plan to get front grass cut today.
Yesterday's Sunrise with fire smoke for color.

Everyone stay safe and well.

Good Morning All.
Ron, I hope everyone up there is staying indoors and/or wearing N95 masks. I would take my PAPR mask home if I had to deal with this.

This weekend heading over to Long Island with our friends, we are planning to see the Doobie Brothers at Jones Beach.
I hope they sound as great as they did at the Woodlands Pavillion some years ago. Some great musicians.

Low of 57 now 61 .25 in of rain so far

Nice picture of sassy 😁

Holly passed out yesterday not sure here nurse and I got her up ok now. Eye doctor visit more shots needed in one eye for macular degeneration other eye still ok.

Prayers for all our Country
So sorry and prayers my friend. This is tough.

But that's the 'mysterious' point. They were in plain sight. I would have looked at them several times without seeing them during the initial search(s). :confused:

The only thing that I can think of is that they were very new, to me, 'screw-down' type clamps that were replacing some older 'squeeze-grip' type, so my mind was specifically looking for a squeeze-grip type clamp... mentally rejecting anything that didn't fit what I was looking for.

I laughed when the 'lost' clamps practically jumped off of the hook on the shed's wall.

I'm still chuckling.
At work, we have stuff in so many places, it is impossible to keep it in my memory. So I have my student workers look for something, I'll say "look through all the drawers and get a mental inventory, that way you can help me find stuff." Only 1 of them is better than me at remembering.

Went to see the Doobie Brothers at a local dinner theater many years ago. Surprised they are still preforming.
They can still rock it. Rockin down the highway!

We just celebrated my mom's 96th BD. We had some roast/rice/gravy/green beans/faro/asparagus, then Red velvet cake with cream cheese icing from Nothing Bundt Cakes store. Really good.

My friend and Pastor found out yesterday his brother died in a bicycling accident. He left a wife and 3 teenage sons.

Work is good, making slow progress on projects. Sent off for a Wire EDM quote to see about replacing our broken (software) machine.

Son got a tick on him, first we've ever seen on our place since the invasion of fire ants. Guess I need to shred.

Prayers for our team, our nation, and peace in Israel and Ukraine.
