[mostly_gas]

Good evening all. 76F for the start, partly cloudy, light breeze. Moderate wind day with some brisk gusts, partly cloudy, and high temp 99F, feels like 110F. Several more days at or above 100F, next week forecast for low 90'sF. Men's meeting this morning, then walk with wife, and bike ride. Heat slowed me down today. good nap.
Covid update: Cooke 252 confirmed cases, 1 active cases, Montague 79 confirmed cases, 3 active cases, Grayson 1191 confirmed cases, 67 active cases,
RS lot going on.
Luther glad you can move fast enough not to get stung
Drew sound like a good start. In the past, new hard drive came with disk copy software, if there is room for the second hard drive in the case. Gets a little more involved if not as the hardware to power the second hd is required.
Thomas good luck with boundaries, have you found them before?
Ron glad late fee only $10, hope you make good progress on window frames. Nice pic of the crane
Don 2-3 of cedarcide is a lot!! 1.3 hrs of biking and I am dripping!
Eric is the price reduction due to no extra purchases?
Drew wow $33/month, wow
RNG that is the worst part of network upgrades, you get to change passwords on everything all at once.
PJ license renewal included upgrade to Real ID.
Never have used Waze, and not likely soon.
Ted pics of the new roller stand please. Mapping errors are fun and really mess with GPS
David that is a lot of sheetrock
Drew phone calls extra? they are proud of that.
Thomas those are big plants!
Randy you went from no rain to way too much rain,
Dennis peppers sound good. Have a ssd as system disk 7-8 years now no issues

Lowes arrived, about 6:30, but at least before dark.
Tomorrow I’ll break apart and organize.




Was hoping the sheet goods would be on a pallet I could tuck into tractorshed. Fortunately, the dry wall is wrapped well so should get away with 1 night outside.

Good morning all. Thunderstorms started to roll in again earlier yesterday, a slight misunderstanding with my wife saw me only closing half the windows she had just opened - by the time I realised the rain had drenched our bed and the carpet on the landing was soaked. Oops. :ashamed:

The heavy rain will probably start even earlier today, not that I've seen the weather forecast, however a walk into town for an appointment to take my sun glasses in for new lenses is almost certain to attract the storm clouds.

David, looks like you have enough "drywall" to keep you out of other trouble for quite a while. That name always me smile, we still know those sheets as "plasterboard", which I understand does back to 1888, when Augustine Sackett and Fred Kane first came up with a machine that sandwiched gypsum between sheets of paper. The evolution of gypsum board - From fertiliser to high performance lining

Thanks, Eric. That was interesting and informative.

good morning all.
Toppop, looks like we aren't going to dry out anytime soon, what a lot of rain in forecast.
Daytime highs for next ten days only in mid 80's, cooler than normal here. Rain, often heavy, predicted every day.
Having cup of coffee, not sure I'm going to enjoy it because starting to have stomach unhappiness, I'm sure due to chemo.

David, that's quite a delivery. Are you going to do the construction or are you having help? Your place keeps growing...
Looks like you were close to spinning wheels during that mowing, do you ever put tractor in 4wd? Hilly terrain and wet grass can
get exciting all too quickly.

I'm off this morning to get "loop recorder" installed in me. Ten minute procedure they say will take 2.5 hours. Hmmm, lot of waiting around.

Then I have to call up Verizon and get into it with them. They told me they upgraded my account
two weeks ago when I was at their shop, asking for unlimited data and they said oh we have this "do more" feature that is better for you. Well, no...now I'm getting text messages saying my Mifi is at 90% of 15 gig limit, weeks to go, and the whole thing has slowed down. I think they choke down speed when you start approaching the limit.
$110 bucks a month for one phone and Mifi should surely allow me to not run out...
Even though I put the pc in sleep mode when not using it, and turn it totally off at night,
maybe I have to be more careful about turning off hotspot, perhaps it's sucking up data just idling there. ??

hope you all have a nice day.
Thoughts and prayers go out to Jay and wife.

Wife created a new stuffing for stuffed peppers that was really good. She used bbq sauce, chili powder, onions, other stuff. No ketchup.

Another odd coincidence. Last week was the first time my wife tried bbq sauce in her stuffed peppers. She always adds chopped onion, and I have always forbid the use of ketchup in them.
