Good morning!!!!

Price out a ProPress tool with all the different jaws and an assortment of fittings. A PEX expander will seem like a steal.

Yep, that’s what I want to change to.

Looks like a beautiful morning out there, but my wx station is down. Must have disturbed something when messing in the cabinet.

Exterior (outside fence) areas all mowed (flailed). Just need to finish up inside with BX and Scag.

CL guy was no show on free TV pickup. On to next guy. It’s ready to come off the wall.

Off to Hilo shortly for Sophie’s ophthalmologist appointment. Need to refill diesel as well.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

Made a Costco run this morning.
Concrete crews shortening the ends of parking islands. Not sure what that will accomplish.
Gas prices here lot higher than southern VA.
They still doing the card inspections. They told guy ahead of me to get a new picture without a mask on.
Nothing much planned for today. Hot out.

Brothers operation delayed to the 25th, some complications.

So my son came home from work and told me one of his coworkers got fired for stealing from the register.

They had film of her removing the money, my son was there, but not watching or realizing.
Spent some time telling him about people and how it's not his fault for not catching her and luckily they had film of her doing the theft.

She could have made his first job his first firing.

This life lesson was thankfully not as painful as it could have been...

Looking good out there, Dennis

Mostly, unlike you, my bike ride doesn’t get me anywhere except off to a good start on the day being a recumbent bike.

86 going to 90 today

Went up and cleaned up around the fallen tree and soon realized that lacking access for the tractor that was too hard and hot so went down and brought up the x changed bucket to one with teeth to be able to rake. Used that to gather up branches and move them over in the pile. All cleaned up now.

Then used the x to dig up a few rocks that turned up to be pretty big. May use them in the creek for erosion protection

If I had more pluming to do will look into the pex tools and fittings

Some more mowing is in the plan

Different experience than Ron and RNG on Prime.
Replaced my deteriorating Coleman and Igloo coolers cheaper than I can find locally. Also got Sophie a new Applewatch 8 to replace her banged up 5. Haven’t told her yet as she has been resistant. Also got Eufy 2c Pro camera bundle to replace the old cameras removed during painting. These are supposed to be Homekit compatible. Also a new office chair, mesh this time to replace the faux leather one from Costco that is in perpetual shed mode.
Should be enough. Unfortunately, my bed shopping came up dry on Amazon. That exercise may drive me to drink (more)

Monday my wife’s phone wouldn’t work when away from the house WiFi. Could not call, text, use data, nothing. I couldn’t find any setting to cause that. Yesterday when we left for VA it still would not work, a call got “network not available”. We both have Verizon, mine had no network issues.
As we got further down I81 her phone started working, could call, text, etc.
no rhyme or reason to why it sometimes won’t work.
