Good morning!!!!

[KilroyJC]

good Morning!

God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly).

61.2F going to mid 80e, back to afternoon T-storms in forecast.

Filter worked, but I should have purged downstream hoses before hooking up sprinklers…

I have to modify the sprinkler heads by reducing the number of holes and increasing the size of the remaining holes, which will allow fine debris to pass. Getting closer to getting it right… someday

half of my pak Choi is bolting, so there will be seeds for next year!

tomatoes have flowers, started pulling off suckers. Radishes are doing quite well So far. Mystery squashes are still mysterious.

Harry was a bit tired after his Canine Influenza shot, but he is now fully qualified for Doggie Daycare participation.

deposing on how things go, I may set up scaffold in living room and fix the ceiling fan. There is only one working bulb left, and the finial nut is frozen on the globe. Not possible to do on a ladder. One hand to hold the ladder, one hand to hold the pliers, and one hand to steady the fan is beyond my capabilities!

I hope everyone has a happy healthy safe productive blessed day!

65 going to 95, and more humidity than last two days.

Buppies, glad infections gone. Hang in there.

Jay, prayers for you and your wife. Glad you didn't get stuck in the flood.

Sodamo, glad you got the bed solved. I guess to live in paradise, paying for shipping is not too bad, especially since an infrequent purchase. Our current bed was ordered from Costco...one of those bed-in-a-box that expands to size quickly once you cut the plastic wrap...we love it.

Scott, your place is beautiful.

Thomas, I'm glad your work situation had worked out.

Started mowing last evening and was too slow pushing the pedal to lift the deck as I drove over the little stump (4') diameter where I cut our recent Christmas tree. I'm sure I've driven over it before without even lifting the deck. Well, horrible noise immediately...turned off mower and drove back to the shed to check it out. Turned out to be a very loose middle blade rattling with its washers, etc. I know I torqued it correctly when I sharpened them last month...so checked the other 2 blades...both okay. Took the blade off, straightness and balance still good. Installed and torqued and then mowed for almost 2 hours. All good.

I suspect hitting a stump loosened the blade, and that's better than breaking something...also thinking it's a good thing I hadn't over-torqued since that may have had a less favorable result.

Thomas, think you found a new job.

Out of 14 near by neighbors only 1 mows there lawn,very seldom see them getting little dirt under their finger nail

It's difficult finding dirt contactor do small jobs around our area,and what they charge and wait I only do if there in bind and with certain conditions.

I've never understood why we don't have 3 arms.

I've never understood why we don't have 3 arms.

Then we’d be Moties!

There was a Fawn with Doe. But weeds were to tall to get a picture.

Mom on high alert. before you know it fawn will be checking you out.

 

[Thomas]

I had to do an image search of moties. I'll stick with just 2 arms.
