Good morning to all. Uneventful start, low 40's should be sun today. Starting review of farm receipts for last year for tax prep. Electrician friend coming today. Trying to get a new plug for bathroom via. other side of the wall. Small bathroom, only (1) spot plug can be so exacting work if it can be done. Sprayed Trimec yesterday in yard. Will see effects today, I hope.

To all, have a great day. Be safe and count your blessings.

Shetland Sheepdog, your avatar shows a lot of hay. What kind of farming do you do with your Ford tractors?
Nice to hear from you in NH.

Morning Daugen,
I mostly putter at hay making on about 15 acres here in NH!
I used to do close to 100 acres, with a friend, as well as working as an electric utility lineworker!
I find that old age, at 84 years of age, is causing me to slow down!
Fortunately, all my tractors and equipment are debt free, which allows me to continue on!
Thanks for asking, Dave

Good Morning
Looks like a sunny day out there this morning.

Yesterday I revisited the dividing head, made one more part for it, the pin that would index a plate behind the chuck. The original was sloppy, so I reamed the bore that it fit in and made an oversized pin to fit the new bore.

A friend stopped by with a fairly high end guitar (Gibson ES335) nthat he broke a screw off in the body changing a strap lock. Some patience and a dremel with a carbide burr got the old screw out with no collateral damage.

Made meatloaf for dinner and froze a batch of small meatloafs for a quick dinner in the future.
Grandson came to visit while his mom went to a party to watch the big game. We took him to his house to put him to bed, I watched the game there while he slept. She was not smiling when she came home.

Not sure what I’ll get into today, Zoe is definitely in energy conservation mode. Maybe I’ll follow her example.

Morning all, 45 going up to....58 and sunny.
Late home, Eagles lost :-( late start for school so I drove son through the traffic blip that comes with schools.
Green Vodka was really good and great seeing family and some of my cousins friends that I have know since childhood. 2 of cousins girls showed up so my son got to play catch up with them. He hasn't seen them due to covid and them being in college.

Rain driving home got heavy at times and NJ drivers were driving like NJ drivers, and some had a bit too much, which made some of the roads a little too exciting.

Fox from the other morning. Hanging out, watching the sunrise ?

Good morning, 41 going to 53 today clear weather sun is out.

Fire in stove is up to temp. Cancelled to dentist appointment and will schedule for later. Got the iMac all set up and running fine. The access password was screwed up causing it to lock up. The tech had special plug in and with some manipulation fixed it and back to normal. iCloud loaded everything back on like before so easy to restore. Mirroring is back to normal and can mirror the MacBook to the 24 inch iMac if wanted. The iPhone is acting up and some incoming calls are going to call forward. But not all the time so don't know what that is. Settings look normal. May have to wipe it and reload. May stop by AT&T tomorrow.
Our pet groomer decided to stop business so looking for a new one. Cody being a Sheltie needs his fur trimmed often to not look too shaggy.
Zion is getting big and Cody is not sure he wants much to do with him but may be they will learn to be friends.
All pets and animals seem to love wife.
