What did you do at work today?

[mjarrels]

Got the 3 pt miniature auger made, time for some powdercoat now and to make the PTO shaft.

Nothing, been retired for 15 years. FIL just died at age 85 so I,m back in the Philippines for a few months dealing with his passing and hating the 90 degree heat every day not looking forward to the rainy season that will soon be here.

(Friday)
my son in law stopped in and lent a hand in the yard
had the tractor out to move some sand / gravel with the FEL, and then level some ruts in the driveway with the box blade
re-did the fencing on the chicken run with a 6 ft chain link fence (used), the birds are less inclined to escape into the yard ... only the hardened ones with attitude will bother now. it looks much better than the shoddy fencing that was there earlier today.
loaded more junk into the truck, for a dump run later this weekend
then it was back to organizing my home office, and working on tax files and bookkeeping files

My horse got out of my pasture into the pasture next door for the umteenth time. The barbed wire fenceline is covered with briars and poison ivy and downed trees and almost impassable for humans but that darned appaloosa -paint mix horse in my avatar claims the grass is greener on the other side.

Today I fought my way through the underbrush and put up 2 more strands of barbed wire about 50 feet long where I thought he was getting out. The I put him back in my pasture and went inside to wash the blood off my hands and arms where the briars and barbed wire got me and to use Dove on my arms to washaway the poison ivy oils before I start reacting to them. Then I went back out to feed the horses and that dam*ed App was in the other pasture again.

My quarter-horses never went through that thicket but that darned App just does what he wants. What the hell is a 76-year-old man doing with an App anyway?

Things picking up but doors never closed...

31 patients scheduled for surgery today and why I clock in at 3:30 am each day to make sure all is ready as staff begins arriving at 5 am and first patients at 5:30 am.

One thing I noticed is for better part of a year I was often the sole driver on the freeway coming to work... there was not anyone to be seen.

Much different now with quite a bit if traffic...

i spent an hour on the tractor tonight ..using the loader to move a pile of gravel, and then spreading it / leveling the ruts with the box blade. worked nicely.

It might be going under the fence.

Dated a girl years ago that had Belgians.

Great big huge honking horses

She had one that would do a commando crawl under the fence. She bread that horse. Momma taught it to her son.

So then they had two that would do the commando crawl.
