Need to pour first cup of coffee. 20° with cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 41° with cloudy skies. Yesterday's Dr visit for wife went well. Got 3 Dr's all talking together about her care. Tuesday's Dr visit got it started. Today I may make it into shop to work on projects. No other plans. I am still doing my 15 exercises twice a day for arm. I am surprised at how much energy it takes. Keeps me from doing as much as I want to get done some days. But I am staying well exercised for this time of year.

Everyone have a Happy Valentines Day.

Jay, around here tree removal/care can be expensive. Last trees I had removed made a deal with local contractor. The job was not a full day job. Why not use my job as a filler on a short day. Got the job done for 1/3 of the quoted price. I did have wait 3 weeks to get job done. Sounds like your job is more than just a short day.

Rick, my replacement LEDs are over a year old. Have not replaced a single one yet. The Fluorescent tubes would lose 2 or 3 every year during the winter. They did not like being turned on in cold weather.

Prayers for all.

Good Morning All.

Glad to hear your wifey's appt went well. Pretty soon Ron, you're going to be doing 1 armed pullups and pushups. If I were nearer, I'd come buy that snapper off of you. Very handy and dependable mowers. Easy to work on.

Happy Valentines day all.

Placed my home away from all the post oak trees on our place, just far enough so that if any fall, they should miss us by a bit. I planted 2 pecans about 20-25 feet on the west side for shade. They are at least 10 years old and about 4" diameter trunks. I get maybe about 40 pecans on the bigger one, but the smaller put out just a few last year for the first time. Actually, the squirrels get the pecans. I haven't put any extra fertilizer on them in years. They need more water. The first 6 years were drought years.

Buppies, hope you feel better soon. Rich, hope the dentist went well.

J and LS, you guys with knee problems be careful.

RNG, wonder if you have fluctuating voltage or something? Might be some weirdness after the fire.

Still can't get into the garden. Too wet. Need to till. Supposed to get into the 80's tomorrow.

My buddy is looking for a 2015 or newer cabbed tractor for haying. Man are they high. Deere builds 3 levels of 6000 series tractors. E for economy, M for Middle of the road, and R for Rich people only.

Prayers for all.

Don, nice shredder. Do you have to get trained and certified to use it?

No need, we just cut the limbs, put them in piles and spread the mulch. The noisey dusty jobs are for the younger paid CA employees.

Potatoes are in the ground.

Good evening all. 52F for the start, overcast, windy. Windy most of the day, partial clearing around noon, high temp 77F. Had to take wife to dentist, stopped by Costco on way home. Went to Valentines day dinner/dance tonight.
prayers for all

16 right now...high in the low 40's...that ought to melt off some of the snow and ice!

 

[Looking4new]

23 now and going to a high of 30°F. Wind E 16 gusting to 24 mph. Snowing.

I don't know how much we got overnight, but we are supposed to get another 10cm/4" today. That will probably work out to 10" as usual. I think the weatherman deliberately understates the snow accumulation so that there is no 'panic buying' in the stores.

I will be plowing around 9 or so this morning.

Have a good day all

Good morning, 44 now, supposed to get cooler as the day goes on. The weekend looks decent.

We have a wedding to go to tomorrow, Sunday should be free though. No doubt find something to do.

Dentist appointment went great. He didn稚 have to give me another treatment. So the ordeal of root canal warranty repair is over!

Not knowing what yesterday would bring, took the whole day off. That and 360 hours of accumulated sick leave. So spent the afternoon trying to figure out why a 1952 BSA transmission did turn/shift like I thought it should. Finally discovered a missing shim. The parts list is difficult to read, but there is definitely a shim of .005 or .010 used as required. Now to find or make some...

Well, time to get my head into going to work. Everyone have a safe and good day

50 going up to 73 today, a short sleeve day.
Need to pack the car with all the show and tell stuff am taking to the garden club meeting,
like an earthway planter and a variety of hand/transplanting tools.
I would just appreciate the projector bulb not taking this moment to blow out...I've had that happen in business, always carried a spare bulb. Not sure the senior center has one. Well, I guess I could wave my arms a lot...

going to explain the difference between determinate and indeterminate tomatoes, and then see who knows that the ideal onion has 13 rings when you cut it open, and 13 leaves. Onion trivia...

found a pic on my laptop that brought back good memories. When I can't handle the farm anymore, going back to my woodshop to
build bird houses. Just no time to do this now.

I hope Ed is doing well and enjoying his lathe.
