Good morning!!!!

[ronjhall]

Need to pour second cup of coffee. 56° with rain this morning. Heading to 75° with thunderstorms forecast all day. Doctor visit went kinda well. She thinks I need to get a sleep apnea test. Not high on my list of things to do this time of year. Need another doctor appointment to arrange one.
Yesterdays flail mower cutting went well. So many 3PH adjustment available on the Woodmaxx. But I think I will go back to good old standard pin hitch. Never got to cleaning up barn yesterday. On today's list along with using metal crate that flail mower was shipped in. Going to use bottom part for a dolly.

Buppies, best wish for a fast recovery.

Eric, painting epoxy? Did you ask for advice from RNG before starting project? :mur:

Don, some good deals on TV's out there. Sam's and Costco. Make sure that any TV you look at has a OTA tuner in it. Many Vizio's do not. 65" is 57" wide. Another thought is look at a separate OTA tuner that sends signal to HDMI input on TV. Does your disk player work on HDMI on your current TV?

Andrew, good news on Ducks.

Prayers for all those that are in need.

Good Morning All.

40 right now...high in the upper 50's and some rain (100%). Glad I mowed the lawn yesterday!
Dump run this morning...and need to get some odds and ends at the hardware store. Also, need some diesel fuel
After that, see if my neighbor is still available to help assemble the rest of the chipper (just the input chute....that's about all that's left.
If he's not available today, I'll rig the flail mower up to the tractor. Although it'll likely be too wet today, I'll get ready for the next dry day.

A TV that does not get OTA!
I'm really out of touch.

I've been watching some youtubes on how to fix the TV. The TV just clicks and nothing happens and is most likely a capacitor. Has anyone replace a capacitor in a TV?

60 and rain going to 76 and rain. Road in county totally washed away, schools closed yesterday because of flooding. Garden is totally flooded and may need some replanting. We are at 7.56" over the last week.

Eric, glad you got the right equipment (3M).

Buppies, prayers for speedy recovery.

Wife set alarm for 5:30...to watch the royal wedding. I guess good day for English muffins, Thomas, or crumpets, as I like. I noticed no tractors or 4WD pickups bringing in the wedding parties...what's with that, Eric?

Good morning everyone.

The anticipated rain has held off so far. It was a 40F red sky sunrise with Walk#1. It was still dry for walk #2. Now I am enjoying coffee #2 before the "Dump Run." I need to stay out of the house as long as I can before the rains come. I am having great difficulty handling "The Wedding." Wifey is up unusually early and I mean early.

Andrew- I am happy to read that your duck situation has improved. Congratulations on the eggs. Ducks seem to have their own mind when it comes to nesting.

"Window pane" and college = Drew and I are close in age. I did not abstain; I was a frequent flier. I considered it "field research" in cognitive functioning. . The chem labs of my alma mater, Party School University," produced a high quality (pure) blotter acid. That stuff glowed under a UV light I glowed a lot too. :embarrassed:. If I ever went "buff" I was not alone.

Buppies- I am happy to read that the leg surgery went well, but saddened to read that the healing process is painful and slow. I hope that you heal quickly and please take it easy. An impressive amount of rain down your way. Too bad Ted and Kyle can't get a portion. Stay dry if you can.

Ted- take it easy.

David and Sophie- I hope that you remain out of harm's way.

I now look at food and food prep & planning wth a "Don" watching over my shoulder. Thank you Don. I am converting all my recipes and meals to calorie counts and removing as much fat and cholesterol as possible from the cooking process. I have lost 15#'s since January and with the "Diet" I am now rarely based on my blood sugars, taking morning shots of insulin as I am going hypoglycemic by noon, and on some days I am not taking the noon dose either. I do not really understand what is going on, but whatever is happening appears to be related to changes I have made and the changes so far are positive. I have a scheduled physical in two weeks. I have all kinds of data to share with my doctor (calories and blood sugars), and I ordered a FitBit Sports & Fitness smart watch to further document activity, calories burned, cardiac functioning, and sleep cycle information. When I decide to do something I am all in to the end.

My + thoughts, wishes and prayers for all those children and adults out there who have left this world far too soon for no fault of their own and their parents and surviving family and friends. It's so sad. My +'s for all here as well.

I hope that everyone has a decent weekend.

royal wedding fun, raining out so need something to watch, interesting that in video so far Prince's brother's wife seemed royally unhappy, not happy. Not one smile in a sea of smiles....
Every expression will be analyzed I'm sure.
The new bride looked super happy, fun to watch.

Drew- You are a better person than I. It was the "pre-game" blather that put me over the edge. I wish the bride and groom well and many, many years of happy marriage.

Wifey and I got married in a wine cellar by a Justice of the Peace.

Ellen watched it while I teased her the whole time, I did try to make out the cars, since I wasn’t getting to make out.
