Co-op had a line fall and ours was out for 9 hours. I have a small HF open frame inverter. My son has been using it on his home construct so it is getting ran and fresh gas so it fired up and never missed a beat. Needed heat for the chicks in the brooder plus tv and wifi.

Reminds me of when Austin Powers was asked if he had protection. [emoji16]

I have the same brand on my stuff. Been satisfied with them so far. [emoji41]

Our county run recycle center takes appliances. You can check to see if you have one available.

Amen

You mean Atlanta parking lot. I would leave on a Fri. morn from Sylvester GA with a load of peanuts headed to KarNut in Detroit or KingNut in Cleveland. With Atlanta and Knoxville traffic I would make little headway.

Nice tractor. Have a soft spot for the older Fords.

USPS is a joke anymore. Even the local postmasters are complaining about it. They are tired of getting ripped everyday due to late mail. Our electric bill gets to us one day before it is due. So I take it to the co op and pay it. When I asked them why our bill was coming from out of state...

Hate to hear of his passing. He always seemed calm in his postings. I remember him from when it was a Kubota forum. He will be missed. Prayers for his family.

The older Cats only used a key to operate a battery disconnect. You could use bent wire, nails or needle nose pliers.

Years ago there was a company that advertised in Rock & Dirt. Their specialty was supplying ignition and cab door lock cylinders for equipment that were keyed different from the OEM. When I had equipment my son had to have a key for every piece of equipment there was. He was in preschool at the...

Bought a stack last fall for my sons house build. $39 a sheet. Kinda pricey.

Same here. The yellow one self destructed. The red n black one has been bulletproof

Dont know if this is anything your looking fir but I meant to post this awhile back.

Sadly its no more but years ago most of my contractors had Nextel push to talk phones. Worked great for us.

I have been meaning to attend the Farm Machinery show in Louisville the last couple of years but didnt. I have high hopes to make it this year. Always something interesting.

My wife has family in Lafayette LA. They sent these pics today.

Sorry to hear about your power outage. Im probably a bit further south of you and ours was out about an hour. Warmed up and the rain melted most of ours. I do usually plow my gravel drive plus a couple of my neighbors when we have enough accumulation.

Goldie couldnt stay awake to see the new tear in. Flash never phased her. When she sleeps its a coma.

Mine will not fit on a my quick hitch without major alterations. So I have to remove my quick hitch to use it. I always wash it after use then spray with a diesel oil mixture, same stuff I treat the trailer deck. No rust after many years.

Sent you a private message.

Bought a chocolate bar at the Dollar Store. It was one of those donating part of the proceeds for a cause. Wife asked me what the cause was and I told her cause I wanted it.

I found one of those in a pawn shop this spring. I bought it for my son who is building his house works great. They wanted $125 for it but I talked them into $100

Cant help on the relay but I do watch a bunch of the non english you tube vids. Have you gone into settings on the vid to see if it has auto translate captions.

Maybe this will help

Years ago when I did excavation could easily pump through a 10 micron well below freezing but I did treat my fuel accordingly.

No screen on the pickup. The pump came with a hose and I fabricated a metal pickup tube. First filter is a waterblock and the cartridge is 2 micron. It actually pumps faster than Im ready for. Have overfilled a few times. [emoji849]

Kubota makes them. I cant remember the part #. Im sure they have different part #s depending on your model. Yes the cat had to be nosy.

Put some of this in the trans. Makes it easy to see the oil level. Use it myself.

Yes I am pulling through the filters. Unfortunately the tank has some rust in it so I am protecting the pump. It may degrade the gpm some but that’s no biggie for me.

I also have an old Tokheim. I used it for many years, first on a 55 gal drum then on the 50 gal tank I have now. It was my great uncles so I dont have a clue how old it is. I have since upgraded to this setup. Its outside under a tarp while I modify the tractor shed.

In KY if you have an enforcement question you would call the scales where the officers work out of. Calling the main office only connects you with office staff who will tell you to call the scales in your area. Have a family member that is a supervisor at one of the scales and he says to call...

I was looking for oil filters at a better price but most of the time on ebay and amazon the filter pic would be the wrong color or have slightly different graphics. Not wanting to get fakes I went to Zoro and they were cheaper plus they offer 20% off to me all the time and free shipping at the...

I purchased a gripper that has a built in light. Really makes it easier to locate items then grab them. Cant remember where I got it from.

I have the 80 volt Kobalt tools also. Chainsaw Trimmer Blower. I have two 2 amp and one 2.5 amp batteries. They are starting to show some weakness on the chainsaw but run the other tools just fine. I will probably just rebuild the batteries when they finally die.

I thrive on cheap and free. My tractor shed sides are metal that was removed from a roof. I painted it and its fine.

All I know is the nyloc nuts are as tight as ever and it has been 5 years or better since I changed to them.

Same thing happened on my King Cutter. The lock washers broke and left the gap. Pulled the stump jumper and replaced with grade 8 bolts and lock nuts.

Looks like the pull handle from a grease gun.

We were in Myrtle Beach when Floyd came through. No evacuation because they thought it wasn’t going to hit. At the last minute they declared an evacuation. I had already gassed the truck up and had a spare 5 gallon full in the bed. We left as people lined up at the pumps. It was ugly crawling...

We have the 610 mule and at times under load at full throttle it will starve for fuel. Old fuel pump died and we replaced it. Still the same problem. Ive got an electric pump to try.

Nice cat. Was thinking the same thing. My adopted me Husky pup is going to get spayed thats a $175 bucks. Shes happy here

Had couple of kooks for neighbors that I had to go to court and have the judge tell them I was right over a property line. To make it worse my grandmother had gave them the land where they originally built. They have since passed and their daughter and her husband live here now. Best people in...

My wife loves them but with the hot humid weather we have in this bottom the blight gets them fast. I usually grow the most disease resistant hybrid varieties I can get.

Yes. I like how using two gives the top link room to come up. I was looking at using one tool box but the top link would hit unless I had it way high and then it blocked my view.

I think they are called adjusting clamp bolts. Dont know where to source.

Have you checked that your cord is not damaged and that the wire connections are tight. 240 motors will not run at full power if one hot leg is damaged or loose but still allowing voltage to flow. The damaged or loose connection will get hot quickly.

Saw a burnt dozer at the sawmill yesterday. Told the owner that I hoped he bought it for parts. He said it was his sons. They were logging a piece of property that the timber was sold at auction separate from the property. Well apparently the new owners have been trying every legal tactic they...

Sa this in the latest Farm Show paper I got.

Years ago Steve Barlow sold them when he was a Massey dealer also. He only carries Kubota now but he may be able to help. Hes located in Somerset https://barlowequipment.com/ Wes worked for him during that time and has since opened his own dealership of Mahindra and Massey. He may also be able...

We got 3.25 inches last night. The ground was powder dry. Even with that amount there is no mud.

Yeah and Im like what the hell do I know about clothes. [emoji848]

Its not unusual for people that have never had a reaction to stings to suddenly have severe reactions. My son raised bees and getting stung was no big deal till one day it was. He now has an epipen. Glad you’re ok.

Boom, dipper and curl.

$3100 dollars worth of LVLs and I joist. Probably should have posted this in things being hauled wrong [emoji849]

[emoji1303]we got faith in ya.

The proxbid ads are still making a mess of the phone app.

Every ar build except one that my son and self have done used their lowers. Never a problem.

She does nice work. Years ago during the time of the CB craze there was a bedridden lady that used the handle Dolly. She would make elaborate doll clothes and dolls that she sold.

I purchased my father a set of bluetooth buds due to his hearing. Mom was about to scream because he had the volume up too high. He loves them. Says he can still listen even when he has to go to the bathroom.

https://www.buyyanmar.com/3TNM72-APL_sub0001_3TNM72-APL_001 Yeah a new block aint cheap.

Use to see those all over here in KY. Since they have cracked down on cockfighting you rarely see them.

Everytime I click on what they have to auction I get a Warning invalid url. Cant sell stuff that people cant see.

Most input shafts dont have a drive key they have a shear bolt and a retaining bolt that runs in a groove. This prevents the driveline from coming off if the shear bolt shears.

We use to have a large population of ground squirrels around the house. I also tried thinning them with a pellet rifle. My efforts had no noticeable results on the critters. We got a couple of outside cats. Havent seen a live ground squirrel since. Best decision Ive made.

One thing to remember is that fabric will work and help immensely in certain situations. But if you have a really soft area that you cant or wont fix the water intrusion then you need to put down a geogrid product like Tensar makes. Its not cheap but way stronger. I have used both the fabric and...

I hope that Im wrong. But I would look in the box like D D said first.

I have a similar blade that has a nut on top. I had one like yours before and did the same thing. Backing up and caught a tree root. If I remember right they are assembled then welded. The only option is to torch or plasma cut the index plate loose from the tube then realign it before welding...

I saw that video. Its click bait to generate views so they make more $. Youtube is always putting junk videos like that in the recommended category. I put these in the same group as Game Changer, Will it Start.

Dont forget to check your pawn shops. I purchased this last year with a tripod and stick for $300. A but more than you wanted to spend but really useful.

Ive noticed that road base is called by different names depending on your location. Here we use DGA which stands for dense grade aggregate. If you want to get a high level of compaction then you get DGA that has been run through a PUG mill. This is basically mixing water into the DGA. This...

1. Walmart stopped selling the Mexican melting cheese I like. 2. Ive lost all of my closest friends except one. I fear I may outlive him. 3. Breaking Bad ended before I could figure out his formula. 4. No one realizes how important I think I am. 5. It takes forever to get a white...

Ive had that one for a few years. Been running fine on the kohler.

I have a mixture of bushings and lift pins on my equipment that I set up for my quick hitch. I started buying the expensive ones to slide over a cat 1 pin and secure with a roll pin Then I either used cat 3 pins or cat 2 with a 3 bushing tack welded to it. You have to drill out the mounting...

Picked this up at the old Ruckels feed store in Waynesburg yesterday. Rated for 28 gph. Like someone said if your using that much fuel you cant afford it. I paid $10 for it. Jegs and Amazon sell them with good ratings. Already had the cat [emoji16]

Another vote for on the table. [emoji1303] I like the big orange bow idea.

Wife calls my treasured possessions junk[emoji849] But if I throw something away I need it shortly thereafter. No dumpsters but. My cousin was cleaning out his garage and asked me to come up and see if there was anything I wanted. Wife told me I couldn’t bring anything back with me. So my...

This blue eyed Husky mix showed up around the fourth. She was really scared. Every time you tried to call her she run off. Her and our Lab have become best buds. She will not come to me but she doesnt run from me anymore. It will take time and goodies to establish trust. My wife says she looks...

Should have been much more weld than that. Looks like they didn’t bevel a thing. I would be looking at rewelding the other side also to prevent another break.

Had another Whirlpool side by side lose its compressor this last Sunday. Makes two Whirlpool fridges in the last 10 years. Still have our original GE top freezer in the basement from 98. Our new GE fridge is suppose to be delivered on Aug 5. Apparently white is not in style these days. We went...

Looks good. I have used old bed springs for drags myself.

Same here. Told me I didnt have permission to do that. Never stopped me before but it did this time.

The spanner wrenches they had at the shop I worked for were made by Williams. Dont know if that company is still in business. If all else fails do what we did, get a big pipe wrench.

You need a spanner wrench. Just search ebay or amazon. I think the set above was $62 on ebay. Place it on the gland nut and smack the handle with a hammer. Tighten the same way.

Occasionally a bad batch gets out. Ive seen this with drywall screws. Open a different case and the heads start popping off. Go to another case and all is fine again. Use to help a buddy build decks years ago and we used phillips head. Phillips should have been hung and quartered for forcing...

I think its a shaft and not a bolt. Yes Im sure it can be replaced but wont be cheap. See what brand and model of drive you have and they should have drawings on their website to let you know what needs to be replaced.

What about that a Swedish dishwasher and I thought they were all made in China now.

These days we are labeled intolerant simply because we dont like something out of personal or moral choice. Not liking something is not being intolerant. Telling me that I cant disagree with you is intolerant. Ive done tons of things in the past that I dont agree with now. Intolerant of...

Worked for a company years ago that was the largest in its field. All of management from supervisors up had started lower in the company. Even our Division director had started as a material handler. Then they started hiring management straight out of college who knew nothing about the...

I was also looking for a 10k trailer and went to the factory to see one. Then I saw a 14k with the wide ramps. It was a little over $6000, cant remember exact amount in 2023. Occasionally Sandusky’s in Columbia has aluminum cutoffs fairly reasonable. Ive bought a lot of steel from them.

Yes I like the mods. Ive been toying with some sort of ramp addition so I can load my zero turn. I have a Gatormade also. Did you pick yours up at the factory or from a dealer.

I saw a huge stockpile of TYMs somewhere along the AL GA border when we went to Eufaula this year. Hundreds of them lined up next to a warehouse. Wished I could remember exactly where it was.

I assume the tapered end goes in first. [emoji849]

My wife wishes I would [emoji16]

Wished I had thought of that. Knowin him he would enjoy the peace n quite. [emoji849][emoji848]

I realized I was old when my underwear became less of a fashion statement and more of a filter. [emoji849]

None. Thought about putting Muhammad on it for kicks[emoji12]

Yes a raptors talons can do damage. A great horned owl that was tangled in my fence. One of his talons found the seam in my welding glove while I was getting him loose. Went to the bone, but the Dr. was impressed.

Had a rodent scare myself this week. Came in to fix a sandwich for lunch and the bread sack had a hole chewed in it plus the hotdog buns did also. Crap I havent had a mouse in this house since I built it in 98. Well all things must come to an end so I immediately started putting together my...

Go with the B2150. I bought one used that had been a rental with 1000 hrs. It had a loader on it. They are a smooth 4 cylinder. I put a Kubota backhoe on and commercially used the heck out of it installing water lines, drains, grade work, electric service and flatwork. It had well over 2000...

15 pair of the HF micro flush cutters. To give out at church on fathers day. Old Timers breakfast at Cracker Barrel.

My wife is starting to mumble a lot lately. Ive talked to her about it but she has shown no improvement. [emoji848]

My son has those on his 250. No problems yet but they have wore rather rapidly.

Those tools are just guides and a compressor for the seals so they dont get cut on the install. I have used small engine piston ring compressors to aid in seal installation. Wide zip ties will work in a pinch.

I have a 3650GST so mine has the single stage clutch and access is not good. But the clutch is only used to engage the pto for the most part on a GST trans so hopefully it will last a long time. My shop manual includes your model so ifn ya need any pages let me know.

Dont appear to be a grease fitting.

25 gallons of off road diesel. Diet Coke and a package of chocolate donuts. Dont judge me [emoji16]

Be careful running illegal parts across state lines. They will have dogs trained to sniff out the parts. [emoji30]

Ya gotta love the smell and feel of a new machine. Congrats looks sharp.

Is that one of them gerbil extractors ya hear about. [emoji12]

I always order from Burdens when Im working in a project. I understand the Im down and gotta have it now situation. https://www.surpluscenter.com/

Me, I would have just shot him but I do admire your methods. Accidental death[emoji849][emoji848]

When dad stayed in FL for the winters he accidentally got on a toll road and received a bill in the mail with a pic of his vehicle and license plate. He was guilty and paid it Six months later he got another one, the license number was correct but the vehicle was wrong and the tag wasnt from...

My tiller also has a grease fitting there. I always clean it with a can of carb cleaner before greasing. If you just wipe it off there us always a minute bit of dirt left which will eventually eat the bearings.

Walmart did the electronic keys and programmed them at one time. But most vehicles today dont have keys they have pieces of luggage they call fobs that constantly get their buttons pushed by other items in my pockets. Rant over[emoji849]

Yes you never know until you look. Glad you got it solved. Im with you on the fixing it without paying inflated prices for parts. If your luck is like mine thats money you will have to spend somewhere else.

Lots of rain here in KY. No deluges but consistent precipitation. Probably turn dry this summer. Garden is a joke. May need to put mud tires on the mower.

Search engines never think like we do. They are set up to make money. That is their goal. Finding what you need is secondary to them. That being said I use DDG myself, as for the pin I used a hitch pin on mine when the old one wore out.

I go to RuralKing for bolts. They are quite a bit cheaper than TSC plus they carry metric sizes. Of course if you don’t have a RuralKing this doesn’t help.

I have a partial roll of it that has been sitting out since 2007 and is still in excellent shape.

Hopefully we will be able to watch again Sat night if the weather permits. Unless the solar thingys fry everything. [emoji16]

Anyone else watching the light show. Pretty rare to see them in KY.

Skid of sackcrete for the floor of my snake proof woodshed.

Have been running my little generator about every other day on my sons house build but today our electric went out for about 5 hours. I do love the small inverters for light loads. Need to get an hour meter on it.

You can order it from here. https://www.vevor.com/commercial-grade-driveway-fabric-c_10184

You should have asked what brand of oil to put in it or whether fuel treatment was necessary. [emoji12] Like most items today they all have good points and bad. It boils down to personal preferences. Drive them all and see what suits you best. I personally feel that if you buy anything other...

Ever since lightning hit and exploded a huge poplar tree next to her pen, Lucy has been terrified of storms. When she hears thunder all she can think of is getting into the basement. I came home the other day and she had the we are all gonna die look on her face because a storm was coming...

Probably so but I prefer using Triple 19 as my fertilizer of choice. [emoji849]

My two helping me transplant into my tubs. They love the cat excluders I built to keep them out of the tubs. They think I built them hammocks and trampolines.

A few sensors would probably be a good idea.

Yesterday after lunch I discovered that my water filter had split and was spraying into my basement. I had installed it in 98 when the house was built. While I made a run to Lowes my son set up fans and used the shop vac to clean up. This is on the unfinished side luckily. Dont know if there...

Wife was given a new company Chrysler van. I asker her why their purchaser chose that particular brand out of curiosity. She told me that he wanted an American brand made in the USA. [emoji12] Told her to tell him that every time she drives it she wants wooden shoes and craves pancakes with...

On his mowers its crank seals and head gaskets mostly for both the Kaw and Kohler. He trades before 2000 hrs. Running an air cooled motor long and hard will result in more problems. I have a Kohler Courage, supposedly the bad Kohler, thats pushing 1300 hrs with no problems. It also seems to...

Unfortunately even the Exmarks can be killed. 🥲 My BIL runs a fleet of them in his service, all well maintained. I work on them for him and usually around the 1200 hour mark Im doing motor work. He has both Kohlers and Kawasakis. The drives seem bulletproof though. There is a big difference...

Years ago that was the price. Unfortunately inflation has taken its toll. [emoji30]

What he said. [emoji1303] Belting is way tougher and you could probably find some used cheap or free. Worst case buy some new and it will last.

Goldie wasn’t here last night. Looked and called for her to no avail. Spicy would meow and look for her. Went to my neighbor this morn and asked him if he had seen her. He hadn’t but he had been in his shed yesterday. Thats where we found her. She was wild. Finally settled down with her buddy...

Sorry to hear. You have my condolences and prayers.

My son put leds in his 08 250. I was worried they would blind people but I was impressed with how clear and sharp the cut off was. Much better than the originals.

Im thinking about making some for my L3650. I thought I had some tread step material lined up cheap but that fell through. So after a few projects are caught up this spring I am planning on doing it.

We have 5 welders and I find myself reaching for the titanium 125 from HF most of the time.

The hydraulic shop I worked at had the 4’ pipe wrenches and cheater pipes. Numerous times we would be heating the cylinder around the nut while two put their weight on the pipe. I was told that the bigger shops had an impact device to remove them but I never saw one.

22 we live on, maybe 5 of it cleared the rest a mix of hardwood and pine I also have 9.5 that is 2 tenths of a mile down the road. My son and his wife are building a house on it.

Yes on the Pramitol. I have used it with great results on gravel parking areas. But it only keeps it from sprouting. I mix Roundup and 2,4 D for active growth also.

I have gave away lots of plants from mine. I wait till fall then I will pull up a sprout and cut it off from the main plants root system. I will keep at least 6 to 8 inches of root with the sprout. Prune the sprout back to 6 inches and plant.

Saw the first rattler of the year, go under a ledge on the hillside behind the house. I wanted to call in a napalm drop but we are under a burn ban. Hey they are talking flurries for tomorrow. [emoji12]

I just purchased a zero turn but kept my rider. I also have a rear finish mower so multiple choices are good. The rider is more easier on the back and less stress. As for a zero turn get one that has commercial grade serviceable drives. Mine has a Kawasaki but everyone has a preference. One...

Mine from a couple of years ago. Dont know the variety, ordered them in the 80s from sum cheap mail order firm. They are about 12’ tall. I planted them a bit too close.

I always used treated pine like most trailers come with. After it dries out I treat it with a used oil and diesel fuel mixture.

Ive got one with a bad motor that was given to me. Have been looking on YouTube and saw where some people have got adapters. Cant remember the exact videos. I was thinking about rigging it up to my pto. No more choking down on a small twig. [emoji849][emoji16]

Verizon told us that their cell internet wasn’t available in our area. We went with a third party that uses Verizon towers. Go figure. I am also streaming HD videos on YouTube at this time also. This service has no caps or throttling. I cancelled my Starlink opportunity due to this.

Ive used them quite a bit just never owned one. My bil owns a small fleet of exmarks for his mowing outfit and my son or myself always fixed them when he had problems. It should make mowing quite a bit quicker.

I mow about 3 acres counting both properties. I am probably going to get some suspension for the seat. The ride is a bit rough on whats left of my spine. Brands and their models come and go at the box stores. Lowes guy said they could get other Husqvarna models but not that one. Wife was the...

Deer never bother ours. Squirrels and birds are the problem. We get maybe 50%.

Been using a lawn tractor for mowing over the years and decided to get a zero turn. Didn’t want to spend a fortune but also didn’t want a cheap one. Finally settled on a Husqvarna MZ 54 that would meet my needs. Husqvarna was having them on sale at $500 off at participating dealers. Dealers...

They usually have a few in their seconds lot that is open to the public but Tarter was sold to another firm and has been closing up in Casey. Dont know how long or what will remain if anything.

The building is 30 x 30 with a 10 shed on the side.

Heres a few pics of my neighbors building. Dont hold the blue tractor against him[emoji12] he’s a pretty good guy.

Friend of mine just had a 30 x 40 with two 10 x 10 rollup doors for $12,000. This was just the building installed on the base you provide. I recently got an estimate of $11,000 for a 30 x 36 vertical metal with wainscoting and 1 - 10 x 10 rollup plus an entrance door. This was to be installed...

Someone hit a cow on the main hwy at 2:30 Wed morn. Right in front of my MIL’s house. Neighbor has the only herd in that area and he says it wasnt his. Sheriff was out there today looking around. Curious to see what happens.

Hes got that what are you doing look in his eyes [emoji16] Live pups and old iron. [emoji1303]

Hitachi sent me to a class given by the forklift dealership. Dont know the cost or if they had people in house or they farmed it out to do the training. I wrote our training programs for our forklifts and other equipment. Lots of help and materials online. I would go with whatever online...

My two are rescues also. Have a couple of stray Toms come around occasionally. Mine arent too receptive of them or any other cats.

This mornings sacrifice left at the basement door altar. They always leave their kills there for me to find.

Cats are the best answer. My two are well fed. They rarely eat what they kill. It seems they kill for the pleasure of it. They are very sadistic when they catch something usually letting it run between them as they take turns torturing it to death. No rodent problems since they came here.

You mean “Overlord”[emoji12]

So what Im hearing is that when the cloak of anonymity is gone and the reality of the person or persons your engaging in conversation with is in front of you that behavior is different. [emoji848]

Now thats funny[emoji12]

Maybe spayed would be a better term since most trolls are obvious pu**ies. [emoji848]

We can no more stop the inevitable than the night becoming day. But still we try. I commend you. [emoji1303]

Thanks. A buddy of mine gets all of his seeds from them.

Structural Engineer. Of course we had good clay to work with. Had one builder mess up and dig a basement on a lot that the home was sold with a crawl space. We put it back in with that same skid steer I have now, everything else I had at the time was committed, and the compaction passed so they...

At one time Tarter was making a lot of Frontier Implements. Remember seeing truckloads pull out of Liberty. Of course Tarter is about gone from our area now since the family sold the business.

Have been wanting to try the clay on plants. Where did your get it.

Just repeating what the engineer told us on lift depth.

Spicy was thrilled with herself when she realized she could jump from the Bobcat to the beam in the tractor shed. They would sit on the grill waiting to see when I was up. When I moved the grill they would take turns climbing the screen to see if I was up. I learned fast to open the...

I think the main problem was the soil wasn’t or wouldn’t compact on the initial fill. I haven’t done any commercial work in a few years. To get good compaction with smaller equipment you need to spread no more than a 8 to 10 inch lift of fill then with a full bucket run back and forth compacting...

Hard to tell from the pics but there appears to be a lot of organic matter in that soil. You can never build a pad out of that material. To build a pad that an engineer would sign off on I had to cut all the organic matter from the site then build the pad up with clay. If you dont take the...

Had a friend that ran equipment for me. When one of us started complaining we would say. Well why dont we just write that down in our big book of feelings.

Thats never good. And now I know why I always carry vice grips.

Apparently I owe the USPS an apology after looking at the latest shipping info. It would appear that the Postal Service has not received the package from Amazon. Which is weird since I ordered it from Walmart. At least now the package is back where it started from.

I like the membership. We get it free on our phone plan.

Made an order on Walmart.com last week. Said it would be here Wed. of this week. Im ok with that, no urgent need. Got an email saying it had shipped Fri. Out of curiosity I checked the progress and who it was being shipped by today. USPS is the carrier. It left Hebron KY on Fri. Went to...

Unfortunately my son has told me that he is selling all of his beekeeping equipment. Last fall he got stung once while checking his hives. No biggie he gets stung usually once during a hive check. But this time he had a bad reaction to the sting and swelled up. I gave him Benadryl and took him...

Bird is one of the ones I can remember when I first came on.

All of this talk about making someone go away got me to thinking about the ones who have gone away. Members slip away all the time and mostly go unnoticed. Death or physically unable to continue will come to all. A lot of the ones I interacted with when I first came to the forum are gone New...

Sorry, its never easy letting one go.

Well I guess it was inevitable. Started out wanting to lynch someone now everybody is drinking. [emoji16] I think I’ll join ya but it will hafta be something diet from my Sodastream. [emoji30]
