Good morning!!!!

[jbrumberg]

Checking In:

I found some expired combivent inhalers that still had some active ingredient last night which helped airflow, but I still had night sweats so profuse that I now have my bedding drying in the sun outdoors and the ceiling fan blowing on the mattress below. I would have been drier if I was bladder incontinent. My coughed up stuff is losing color and I had enough lung function and strength to walk the lower perimeter. Based on this "evidence" I am probably going to shake this illness w/o needing to see any doctor . The tractor started per "NH Boomer" fashion and ran w/o any evidence of water in the fuel mix. All the lights work except my added ROP lights; I need to replace the connector into the tractor's wiring harness. I actually already have a compatible dipole connector. Like BEF my "batteries" are drained today. Despite with which I am currently dealing there are definite signs of improvement. I do not mind the night sweats if I can breath freely and have the energy to maintain physical activity. Something is going on. It could be my body's response the allergens (I essentially have 6 acres of goldenrod in the lower field.). I do have an appointment Thursday with my GI doctor. We'll see.

I've been following this thread. As to the kayaking. Our kayaks are not really designed for large open bodies of water. At 9'6" they are small enough to easily maneuver in bogs and the inlets and outlets of the lakes we visit. We have enough bodies of water and streams w/i a 2 hour drive to keep us paddle-busy for a long time. My preference are bogs, backwaters, and small streams where one finds the best opportunities for observing wildlife. I do not think there are any kayaks with more initial stability. I have kayaked safely in Class 2 waters. Our kayaks are pretty rugged and cheap; our paddles cost more than the kayaks. I am still hoping to get a little more time on the water.

Roy- I hope you respond to the antibiotics and the dry sockets heal quickly.

BEF- I hope you can recharge quickly and post more activities today.

Phil- I hope you find some allergy relief soon.

I am missing a few specific + thoughts; but I hope everyone has a decent day today.

My + thoughts and prayers.

Come on there Jay, time to get on the mend. Best wishes and prayers.

OK, trying again.



It worked! Anyway that is the last of the four walls and two gable ends, with my friends celebrating the little 18 V Skil saw I gave him.

Now I just have to do the soffit boards, which are much easier.

Have a nice day everyone!

Looks great, check. Nice work.

Good job, Check. Congrats

JB, just because you survived without seeing a doctor, doesn’t mean you shouldn’t have seen the doctor! You keep rolling those dice you’re bound to hit snake eyes!

I appreciate the +'s thoughts. I am just another poster here who has experienced and/or is experiencing a life changing situation with which to deal. When one or one's spouse or one's own children become challenged by some condition or event that is not well understood one becomes an "expert" by necessity either for their own best interest or the interests of their spouse or children. I have BTDT dealing with this BS for over a decade. I am used to dealing with the night sweats and neuropathy. The nightly night sweats were in remission. If following personally established SOP's does not work this time I know I have to seek medical attention soon. Right now I am trying to rule out what's driving this in order to either help myself or if necessary provide hopefully accurate information to a treating specialist. I find GM as a valuable personal resource, informative, entertaining, motivating, as well as inspirational. TBN helped me get through some really dark places and spaces in the past and I am thankful for past and current support. One way and/or another this will work itself out. Looking out the window at all the unfinished active projects is frustrating, but at least I have defined a couple of "subtasks" to keep me busy w/o overexerting myself.

Check- Nice job. Congratulations.

BEF- I am looking forward to rotary cutting the lower field next month after a killing frost. Right now there are countless happy pollinators taking advantage of all that goldenrod and it looks to be a good year for berry/fruit eating wildlife. The lower field was literally humming from all the insect activity the other day.

I hope that everyone is having a decent, manageable day.

Had to mow slow.

No wonder it looks so good! When I mowed it looked like that after the third pass.

FireWise brush and juniper clearing this morning. That ought to slow a brush fire down and decrease the intensity and embers, so we are not like California. Everything is very dry but we are still have humidity in the 80% in the mornings. Still waiting on that first real cool front. It should hit Bird, then me then Kyle then Rick. By the time it gets to Rick it might not be too cool.

 

[buckeyefarmer]

Cant get my garage door remote to work on the door i use with the ranger. I program it, it flashes like its programmed, but doesnt work. This remote came with this openner. The other openner is slightly older, yet it works on the remote

The wall MyQ openner had died months ago, and i replaced it recently. It works now. Now wondering if the transmitter board needs replaced.

 

[buckeyefarmer]

The morning i found my bill for my homeowners insurance laying on a self in the mudroom. Its due thursday, so i wrote the check and wife put in the mailbox. Mail lady never took it. She put flag down and put mail in the box. Uhgg.

Sitting on side porch swing, but getting cool out. 72° and breezy.

 

[mostly_gas]

Good evening all. 75F for the start, clear sky, calm wind. Sky started to cloud up late morning, rain started at 4:30 radar estimate about 1/2 to 1 inch wind was moderate and high temp was 90F HI 99. Had the POA board meeting this morning, dentist had to redo filling that had decay starting, then to Muenster to pick up unwelded bike. Other than looking like they parked it next to a gravel road for the last month, untouched . I have talked with a bike shop in Denton, his welder is backed up a month but am getting better vibe then the follow up calls with the last guy. Need to hose it off before I go, had to decide clean bike or nap, and nap won. Rain interfered with later thoughts of bike clean up.
Drew, glad you had a good weekend with company, and hope you find your kindle.
Buppies are you sleeping better yet?
Billy, good luck with dryer. My biggest problem is timer knob failure, base breaks and you can't reset the timer
Randy, amazing what happens when internet goes done
RNG, overall sounds like a productive day.
Buckeye nice mow job.
Bird, I did not lose Internet but I have Nortex as my provider.
David, Touch disease?
Jay, hope and pray you mend soon, have fun kayaking.
Check nice siding job!
Don the cold front has to get by me first. Forecast is for next Tuesday night/Wednesday morning.
Buckeye does the opener use a learn mode, if so sometimes use have do "add" all the openers each reprogram. I hate it when checks.bills get lost till the last minute:mur:
Prayers for all.

 

[Kyle_in_Tex]

Coffee is done brewing. 50° with a few clouds. Heading to 76 with partly cloudy skies. Did not get lawn mowed yesterday. On top of the list today. Need to start getting thing ready for winter now that fall has arrived.

Kyle, maybe my tire & wheels helped pay for your hose.

Drew, not sure how you could loose a Kindle. I have 2 of them and nobody to use them.

Don, watch out for them tree snakes. They will poke you.

Hawkeye, get some rest for your back.

Buckeye, LS, Jay Roy, and Randy, hope you are all continuing on the mends. Prayers sent.

Good Morning All.

That just might be true.....if so....thanks!

OK, trying again.

Beer time. Is check another way to spell czech? Looks good.

J, hope you get better. Still worried about those night sweats. Have you had those before?

Don, no fronts coming in the 10 day forecast. Pavers don't burn. Need a really wide path of pavers.

Thanks mostly!

BEF, field looks good. Need practice? C'mon down.

Middle Daughter's birthday is this Saturday. She'll be 12. I'm taking them to a trampoline Jumping place. Then, strawberry cake and strawberry ice cream is what she wants. She's been quite the handful lately, although today has been her best day in the last week.

Prayers for the sick, and those that need mending or have troubles.

RNG, we get avgas cheaper than that. I want to say E0 is about $3.50/gallon. Maybe less.

Wifey roasted me some yummy asparagus in the oven. Smelled up the house and my P. Plus, she left the oven on for 2 extra hours. AC is at war with oven.

Yup. Dad is from Poland where Czech is a fairly common name. Parents changed it to Check in the 60’s.

 

[RedNeckGeek]

The fuel depot is convenient, but I need to fire up the PureGas app and see if there's anywhere close with more realistic prices. All the while keeping mind that this is Kalifornia, where common sense isn't so common...

 

[daugen]

gas prices here jumped back up, $3.19 for 93 octane E0 and $2.87 for diesel, filled both up yesterday.

up in middle of night, paying bills and working in office. Will hopefully have a nice nap this afternoon.

Jay, hope you feel better. You too Roy.

bit of a sad day for me yesterday, two close friends both told me they don't have long to live, chemo treatments didn't work.
Sat on finance committees for decades with both guys. Confirms my personal goal of not waiting for bucket list items, like my rv trip around the
country. At our age, we are one lab report away from a life changing event.

going back to tire place and have all the tpms sensors taken off the rv. One is in constant faulty alarm. Plus the front tires shake the rig at speed, so I think that big
heavy plastic sensor is throwing off the tire balance. I'll find out when the sensors are taken off, will go for a ride and see if it made any difference.
These aftermarket tpms systems have issues, happened to me before. They balanced my new tires last week, so if rig still shakes, looks like it will have to go back to MB.
And I asked the dealer specifically to make sure the front end was in good alignment. Oh yeah, my tech said it ran great. No, actually, it doesn't. Good way to wreck the new tires, so one way or the other will resolve this. Identical issue with both brands of tires, so know it's not the tires.

Dry weather out, finished painting the garden shed, one more small shed to go.
