The plan, a whole lot of words to say nothing. But the joke was funny, how they rapidly delivered millions of test kits. It took at least a month to get mine.

I think it’s time to shut down the USPS.

I have a better idea:

Let's get rid of the guy - with the questionable ethics and obvious conflicts of interest - that's presently running it.

yes, new 9 spoke polished aluminum wheels with much larger tires

my favorite McGyver came and fixed my generator this afternoon. Desoldered and resoldered the rocker switch, changed out a fuse, and vrooooom.
yeah.
we get by with a little help from our friends.

I think it is great that many of you live in the same area. (my grandpa's old stomping grounds).

Pop's saying is "If I can't fix it, it ain't broke"

Work is still busy with so many to do's, and still more HR paperwork. The more I learn about things, the more I find out that things need to be fixed, updated, organized, etc....

Today is my oldest daughter's birthday. (The one that still needs prayers, thank you Mostly) She a great young person. I thank the Lord for her. She took all social media off her phone, only does texting now. She wanted to bake her own cake/s, and she wanted to BBQ chicken quarters. I told her they cook best slowly, I've been pulling some of them off as they reach 165F. But there are still maybe 4 or 5 quarters still cooking...for 3 hours now.

Good morning. Another night of yoyo overnight temps; Late evening, 2.3C, bedtime 0.8C, 0230 5.8C and morning 1.1C. Currently 12C, clear with a gentle breeze.

Take care all.

Kyle, say HAPPY BIRTHDAY to your daughter for us! Neat that she wants to do her own cake / cooking.. (at least I think so).
Sounds like you'll be busy at work! Were they just lazy or were they too busy to take the time to update everything?

Drew, chrome spokes and gnarly tires.....are you getting one of those Rolls Royce grills? .... sorry, couldn't resist! I hope you get a bunch of good rides!

Well, the skies clouded up and got darker, breezes picked up, and I thought for sure we were in the storms path..... NOT! Didn't get one drop of rain! At least the cloud cover kept the temp down to 86°.

Finished up giving the rest of the landscaping a good drink, then got to clearing out the area of the backyard expansion and finished that up. Hauled the material for the raised bed over to the shop. Found out that might be a waste.....wifey is now having second thoughts about them being in the backyard, she may want to put them in strategic spots in the courtyard landscaping..... I didn't pursue the discussion....


Everyone have a great evening!
