Picture was with the pressure on it. It will flex back. Can probably drop an angle iron from a truss and use a longer bolt thru one of the track joins to hold it.

72°F and .06 inches rain.
No trip to town this morning for errands and we slipped in last night to get needed items at HD to proceed with generator install. So my focus will be out in the tractorshed today.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

Temps are warmer than the forecast a month ago.. we had 20-40mph winds with some rain last night... my back was hurting so I got up and sat in easy chair with ice pack, back calmed down but I was awake so watched some netflix. Went to bed about 2:30am, sleep good until alarm at 6:40am, had a few meetings I had to do, including presenting to about 15 folks on my last call.

I had a scare this morning when my internet went down at 8:45 and was down about 45 minutes.. cycling the power on the POE for the ISP's radio seemed to get it going. They need to upgrade the access point I connect to, they have over provisioned and it shows at times. New equipment in the next couple months will solve that.

Happy birthday to several folks that got older, I refuse to grow up, but I did grow out. My bubble is in the middle for sure.

Stay safe, prayers for those in need.

decided I hate the combo convection unit in the rv, went to read the directions, again, and they must have fallen behind drawer, into a void I can't see or get to.
Lovely. 7 things I'm trying to heat up for dinner, not good planning, have them all hot at once, heated sequentially in a device I can't understand. At least the new machine smoke burned off, had the fan on just in case and it was needed. Thankfully the couple coming for dinner are easy, he used to be a chef, in fact I met him when he catered a big party for us in PA. Perhaps we should just drink a lot....

Microwave/convection oven are a love hate thing. My wife was one of those that loved it. Had me buy one for the house. If you have internet access. You mays be able to find a copy of the manual with a Google search.

Sometimes the GDO works, but now it goes about a ft and abruptly stops.

So got out extension ladder and started putting up chain opener hoist for the 10ft door. Hoist hits a 2x6 nailed along the 6x6 pole. Poor design in my opinion. Standard offset for clopay door. I already cut a 1” rod to extend the pipe length, if I had known I could have cut it a half “ longer and made it work. I can cut another rod, or trim the 2x6 10 ft in the air.

Got too tired, had to stop.

Ellen closed one of our doors on a 4 ‘ tall box and warped so badly I’m going to have to replace the panel or the whole door. I’m not strong enough yet to do it, guess I’ll get estimates.

I assured her it was no big deal, she works way too hard and takes too good of care of me, for me to fuss about that.

Your GDO obviously should not warp like that. Do you have the door's springs adjusted so that it doesn't take much force to lift? I'm back to worrying again.

Randy, sorry about all of Ellen's families medical issues. Prayers

Don, I'm worried about whipper. Since she has been bitten by snakes in the past..... but still goes for the slinging kill, ignoring the pain, I don't believe them shocking her, or the snake biting her is going to deter her from killing the snake....hopefully I'm wrong. Her desire to protect you (or herself) will override any natural fear.

Drew, happy camping/learning experience.
