Good morning!!!!

[hawkeye08]

Got oil changed in Tahoe and Equinox yesterday.. didn't take long, was cold and wet out so didn't do anything extra.. got the console safe for Tahoe USPS late in the day, went ahead and installed. Pretty easy install (Lock'er down brand). Was not sure we would loose the tray, but there is not enough space on top of safe for tray so will get some containers that will fit.

Started converting Sony video tapes to digital. Watched some as they were converting.. good fun seeing old movies..

Stay safe, prayers for all

Also working on open questions around medical and income for retirement

My booze consumption has gone from at least one 40 oz bottle/day to 2 oz once a year on my birthday. I drink no sugar and carbonised water drinks. I drink no milk or partake of any dairy products, another old peoples' downfall. I used to really like cheese and milk, until it started doing what it is doing to me. It is called lactose intollerant, in realality it is the sh1ts.

Looking: i'm most likely lactose intolerant cause yep the crapper needs to be close by when i drink or eat certain things. that said there are a ton of options you can try. some milks have me running and others don't. same with yogurt and other things. some things i'm ok with are Almond milk, cashew milk, oat milk, goat's milk, and some brands of milk in a real glass bottle. some yogurts I can hear the gurgling and some not so much, but most do something so i usually add some homemade granola or some other things to my yogurts.

I can't say i've drank a fifth a day since my early 20's, but I do drink a gallon of ice tea daily now (which might help to the quick trips to the john too), but at 64 i'm not taking any pills and feeling pretty decent. I could afford to lose maybe 15 pounds cause i've been laying on the syrup and homemade jam on pancakes this winter, but summer I should burn it off building a fence and deck.

hope this gives you some options and just eliminating something that you like can be tough if you need to. processing and ingredients are the key so keep trying other brands or make your own.

good luck!!

speaking of fences i have all the cedar 6x6's and 1x6's that have been drying on racks that I got from a local mill and wondering if any of you have a fence you own or like you'd like to share pics of? i was going to build this 8 foot tall fence, but my bride wants me to end up with more like a 6-7 footer so i'm leaning towards this one without the lattice on top.

drivesitfar; I quit drinking large amounts of booze in 1991, quit beer the next year. I might have a beer or two in summer IF the temps get hot enough AND I am not driving anywhere.
Yogurt I can do in small quantities, the same for frozen yogurt. Goats milk, almond milk and all that stuff is very expensive here.

I put apple juice on my raw oatmeal in the mornings. Cooked oatmeal, I do not like, but if it sits in the pot overnight to get good and cold, I will eat it then with nothing on it.

I think the fence with the lattice on top looks better. Maybe do the fence on the right and put lattice on top of it?

What a marvelous time to be pursuing a diet. There are so many choices, seemingly one for every fad out there. And now even the national news is covering it...

Good article!

The second one without the lattice work would be a lot easier building and staining. Just the little arch on the top rail adds a lot. I would keep it simple unless you have all the materials and a lot of spare time.

Kyle, that looks like a seriously itchy situation. Our nervous systems seem to have some strange triggers
hope that healed up quickly.
Propane man fixed heater in greenhouse so am off to turn that on for first time.
Have six trays of flowers and I really should to do some more but I think the sun is over
the yardarm.

Plus want to go take pics of new landscaping done. Now that opening into the woods opens up opportunities including taking my larger Massey with grapple
over that little bridge and having a good old time in the woods, blazing a trail to the pond. That bug infested pond...looking primordial full of oozy unknowns that
you step back from the edge. I've never found an alligator around here, we're just a little North, but if one were to be here it would be back in that
cypress lined pond. Bugs will eat you alive.

Bug infested primordial bogs can support all kinds of creatures.

Drives I’m not a fan of lattice work although the one in your top pic is nice because it is only a short section highlighting a landscape feature.


I like the one in bottom pic.
