Good Evening Thomas,
Good night for a cold beer or adult beverage, and as Thomas would say, a Smooth Cigar !!

Indeed enjoying taste of autumn.

if our days are getting shorter, are Wagtail's getting longer?

Yes.

AND today is the first official day of Spring as Australia has decided to go with a calendar change of seasons as opposed to equinox/solstice.

AND the moon appears 'upside down' to your Northern Hemisphere perspective.

Speaking of “upside down”, this always makes me LOL:

Good (Friday) morning &, as previously mentioned, the first day of Spring... which, of course, started off with a frosty overnight Low of 1.4C. It's presently 15C, partly cloudy with a bit of a breeze.

Yesterday's 'foot farrier' appointment went fine, although I'm developing an annoying (R) heel crack/split. Some sort of balm is recommended... I needed him to repeat himself as those bloody masks are still a requirement inside the local Base Hospital where they 'rent' a room for when they're in town.

Made an Vet appointment for Penelope the Pussybeast's annual 'shot' for Tuesday arvo. Hopefully I'll be able to catch her in time to make the appointment.

Not much on for today. So, that's about it, take care all.

Good Afternoon!!!! 88F @ 12:30PM. Partly cloudy. High 94F. Winds S at 10 to 15 mph.
Showers are in the forecast for tomorrow morning, but only 0.07".

Had to be at the DMV first thing this morning to have the VIN inspection redone. After a bunch of paper shuffling they handed me a pair of license plates and a sticker, so I'm good to go in California. Stopped for groceries on the way home, and now I'm good for the rest of the week.

In the early 90's I went to California to do some desert riding. My buddy there had a 5 year old tacoma and he said the license plates were $600/year back then. Are they still that high?

Crawled up in the attic....got chimney to attic floor. All I need to do now is cut the concrete walls in the room below and take out maybe four or five more feet of brick.

Roofer coming over the holiday for the patch.

Yippie.

The proverbial Brick Milk house. She's a brick....house. Commodores.

2 days ago, you were a fiddler on the roof. Today it was playing with Toys in the Attic. and Just another brick in the wall....only about 40-50 more bricks to get down to the ceiling? Careful with those wires.

BIG Boo not social buttery fly.

LOL, pop up a big bag of popcorn, make sure they smell it, and go sprinkle it between them....then we'll see who's the social buttery fly! LOL.

Work went fairly well. I spent part of the day trying to prove out someone else's complicated lathe program, with just the G code, not the cad/cam file. Needless to say, it will be a highly edited file when I'm done. Did not get as much done as I wanted, and one of my 25 bosses piled some more onto me. Job security. I was supposed to be off tomorrow thru Monday. But major meetings tomorrow, and my immediate boss out of town, so I offered to go in. At least there's a free lunch. I might take off Tuesday to celebrate working tomorrow.

son hurt both achilles tendons playing ultimate frisbee with friends. We are praying it's just tendonitis. We did a Thompson test on him just now and it looks like they're not torn in half. Without Advil, he crawls to the bathroom on his hands and knees. Compression, Ice, elevation, rest.

Hope all of you have a safe, blessed Labor day weekend.
