Good morning!!!!

[CWB Wyo]

Looks like 28* for the low this morning, it made it up into the mid 50's yesterday. They are calling for showers this morning but the sun is out now. It might make it up to the 60's today with some wind. Then a mix of snow and rain tomorrow morning.

Probably go up and see how the neighbor is doing and if he needs anything done.

Hope everyone has a nice day.
CWB.

You guys make me smile. And my spelling sucks.
Raggedy Ann was wifeç—´ name for herself to her surgeon due to all four extremities and her pelvis being broken and she must have been floppy like a Raggedy Ann doll (rag doll) when she came into hospital. Her real name is Sophie and tomorrow she marks 65 trips around the sun. I am blessed with 33 of them with me.[/QUOTE

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Sophie! Have a great day !:dance1:

 

[txdon]

Good morning! Temp range 50 to 80 with lots of sun. Still needing rain, ponds dropped 2’ the last 3 weeks.
Thanks for posting your WBC and lab normal ranges. I feel like I’m right where I should be with 2.9 on plant diet.
Weather geeks any significant rain for central Texas coming soon?


Happy birthday Sophie!

Don-

It looks like there is a little of something for most everyone across the CONUS.

The low pressure system that nailed RNG and now currently tracking across the southern/central CONUS and passing over TX over the weekend's moisture field is mostly to your north.

But after this last "Snowmaggedon" fiasco it is difficult to put much faith in the current model runs.

That drought area looks really bad.

Hey, don't blame ME for that one! It came from Hawaii via David! :laughing: We all needed the rain, and hopefully it'll trend a little more south than the weather guessers are currently guessing!

 

[sodamo]

63°F and .21 inches rain.

Computer drive redone, taxes loaded, no the fun part

Making wife bacon and eggs for breakfast. Nothing special, just a tad more love.

Thanks for the well wishes, guys.

Prayers for all

Be safe
Have a great day

Probably nothing for us, I'm smack dab in the middle of that drought area....drought. Has been exceptionally dry since last summer.

Today's high should be near 70, 74 tomorrow, but getting high winds tommorow afternoon. Storm systems have been skirting north up in Colorado, but they are below avg precip also.

Been taking it easy, knee felt better. Went outside yesterday just to water about 10 big planters that aren't on a drip system. Came in after about an hour, sat down, then couldn't get up. Up every hour last night due to onset of pain.... Can't believe it... Just from standing a little? Hate to say it but, can't wait for surgery!

Randy, glad you had an uneventful but enjoyable short road trip with your lady. Send some more pics of the Monte Carlo when you get it back.

Drew, it never ceases to amaze me how the churches / private schools can make things so complicated. My daughter attended West Chester Friends school when we lived out in Sadsburyville. We tried to donate time and materials for a project they had (I was a licensed contractor at the time). It took them so long to "approve" both the project and our services, we could not do it because it was then in the height of our "busy season". You'll eventually get it straightened out.

RNG, is your one leg now bigger than the other trying to start the bike?:confused2: hopefully new plugs and reviewing through the ignition system works. Nothing more frustrating than a motor that should start but won't.

David, enjoy your time with wifey today, sounds like you truely live in paradise. Hope Sophie has some relief of her pain.

Prayers out to everyone this morning, hope everyone dealing with yesterday's storm stays warm and dry.

I really wish I knew this weather stuff better. :embarrassed: That heavy rain area really does not make sense where it is. I hope for the drought stricken areas that this system's moisture fields track more southerly. I see a series of "dry lines" crossing TX starting Friday through the weekend into next week. I see them so rarely on the weather maps that I had to research those weather symbols out. One can see them is really strong storms.

David- Sophie is one special person, and so are you. A little love always helps the cooking.

LS- Standing really stresses blown out MCL's and ACL's. My knee would literally inflate if I stood too long and once I sat down the swelling would lock the knee up while bent. And yes I got to the point that I was looking forward to the surgery as you. Hang win there and good luck.

This next weather system looks like minor event here. Temps are going to start rising in about 7/8 days and I look for the first Bermuda high to set up about then.

 

[Bird]

We could use some rain; yard needs to be watered. Right now, the NWS says for Denton, TX, a 20-30% chance Saturday night thru Monday, then a 50-70% chance Monday night thru Tuesday. We can hope.

 

[Kyle_in_Tex]

You’re welcome. I can believe that. Probably one of the first places in US to plant every year. Planters will start rolling here when soil temps get around 60*. Some maybe before. Oh how I miss row crops. Things have changed so much in the 8 years I’ve been away from them. Would love to get back into them some day.

Family is doing good. Oldest son is enrolled in kindergarten for the fall. He’s really picking up the speech device. Youngest son is starting to talk and is trying to be the biggest helper. That’s helping oldest to spit out a few more words but they are still sporadic. Oldest is as passive as they come. Youngest is a brawler. So far. Oldest has a foot and 30 pounds on youngest but you can’t tell the youngest that.

How’s yours?

Glad to hear you're older boy is doing well. That might be some of the best news I will hear all day.

RNG - I've often had to push start rebuilt m/c engines. Get someone else you trust to use their leg to push you about 30 mph then as they get out of the way, you dump the clutch.... I still believe you might have ignition issues. Hot blue spark like a briggs and Stratton. But I know nothing of beemers. Not a fan of Bosch either.

PJS, it's good of y'all to help your friend and I hope you all have a good time.

Mom is much worse, having a hard time breathing and not sure she knew I was there half the time. Said something about her mom leaving at 3.????? Not living just hanging on. Ed

 

[jbrumberg]

Ed- Your description of your Mom is consistent with a delirium in addition to everything else with which she is dealing. She is really sick. I hope that the docs and staff can determine what is driving this. A delirious state of mind can be reversible if the underlying condition is treatable. Hang in there. My + thoughts and prayers for Mom, you, and family.

Sure hope Ed's Mom feels better.

put a tray of corn out today to harden it. Growing like a weed.
And now to sit down to a bowl of home made chicken bean soup.

 

[Ed of all trades]

Thanks guys, my wife found out that mom calls a lady that works there mama and that she was leaving at 3. I don't think she had a clue who I was there but she knew my wife. So she is in and out of it. Thanks again Ed

I see that lists my start date as 3/20/2000. How many remember the name of TBN before it became Tractorbynet? I bought my Kubota B2710 on 8/12/1999 (the date it was delivered), but I had a B7100 before that and started using TBN's predecessor for information way back then. And dial up Internet America was a bit slow out in the country.:laughing:

Here is a 20 history of TBN.

Yeah, it shows to have started on March 21, 1998. I got my Kubota B7100 on June 30, 1995. Then I got my first Internet connection on August 24, 1998. And a year later, on August 12, 1999, I traded that B7100 for a B2710. But I'm not sure of the exact date that I first found the website that later became TBN. I do remember that for awhile, I was reading EVERYTHING posted on here, before it got to be too much to keep up with.
