Thomas- Enjoy your day today.
.......................
So far so good. :thumbsup:
Soon you'll be getting taste of autumn air which will put spring back in your step along with good night sleep.

Thomas- I am happy to read that retirement apparently seems to agree with you .

The woodstove was cleaned out today ready for its first probable burn for this Season tomorrow AM. I have yet to turn on the our propane fired central heating's primary living space zone.

The goldfinch have started to visit the thistle feeder. I still have hummingbird feeders up; hopefully the downey woodpeckers will find them before I take them down for the season.

I'll probably put up all the bird feeders after our return from Martha's Vineyard.

Robins appear to be flocking up and fighting over available food resources in the understory vegetation. There are still some wild grapes hanging and lots of Autumn/Russian olives. My mistake planting them appears greatly appreciated by all the birds.

For a day that started out rather poorly things are really improving.

Paul- I am sorry to read about the company that you work for's two recent resignations and the new expectations now placed on you. Another example of competency and job longevity being "rewarded" by senior management.

Got electrical service to 2 barns completed. Tested and all building now have 240 volts to them. I must have climbed the 3 ladders 100 times getting all ends hooked up. Another item off the list.

That’s a job I need done.

Honestly retirement hasn't sunk in yet but that's okay.

For the first two weeks it will be just like a vacation but after about 4 weeks you will start to get into a routine.

My Whirlpool refrigerator just stop making ice. I notice it low this morning and it did not fill up any all day. The water flow is fine and the water filter was replaced about a month ago. Any suggestions, you tube search was fruitless.

40 degree night you'll sleep like kitten just purring purring.

Will sink in in stages. Today was only the first on many firsts to come.

...1st non payday
...1st non Holiday
...1st non sick day
...1st non vacation vacation
...1st time you truly don’t know what day of the week it is
...1st time you’re certain it’s Saturday, but find out it isn’t.
...1st time you don’t finish something and realize it doesn’t matter, there’s tomorrow

Just a start, I’m sure others can add.

Glad your wife likes all those buzzers and whistles, Don. I no longer have the patience for that sort of foolishness.
Are you using any kind of bug spray to keep the ticks off you in that tall grass?

Wait a sec, you are the most patient person I know. Your blue project comes to mind.

No ticks, chiggers, or snakes this week.

Is that your actual freezer?


Ron, wonder if you're as tired as Don was when he laid pavers?

Did some piddly things. Put some fuel in the bigger tractor, getting ready for cooler weather to shred/slash.

Took wifey to eat Mexican Food. So, so.

Astros won! Verlander is something special. It took them 5 innings to finally score. I watched from the restaurant.

Coming up fast on 100,000 posts. I'll say I enjoy reading them, but sometimes get a wee bit behind, and go through them faster than I should.

That is the freezer door, the inside of the door. It's a side by side ref/freezer.
