Drew, the spark plug tools include include a pull out to bend the electrode by hooking it and bending it. If not just pry with a small screw driver or knife

Where did you find that?
Got it from Weisser distributing but is on Amazon in various qualities. Mine is 3/8 gallon or 400 ml and works well and can be taken apart for cleaning. The ones at the auto stores are junk

The more I hear about shoulder surgery the more I am inclined to avoid it and just do PT and get it as good as it is going to get. I will still get the MRI to see what the damage is and get an idea of what movements to avoid

Good Morning.. 58 here headed to 68 - very nice day. My wife wanted to redo the front flower garden this year. So we bought some rose bushes, 5 hydrangea plants, many hostas.
We waited to put them out. put them out about 10 days ago. Then the low temp Sat and Sunday went to 30. We brought hanging plants in and covered the ones ground planted. They look good now. Those hydrangeas are expensive. Think we spent about $400 on 5 of them. Have a good day.
We bend over some of the branches on the hydrangeas and covered in soil and they set roots

Good (Tuesday) ANZAC Day morning. The overnight Low was 9C but dropped down to 6C at dawn. It's presently clear, sunny and calm at 8.3C... looking to reach 21C.

A great turnout for the Dawn ceremony (400+) and we then 'retired' to the RSL for a 'gunfire' coffee (coffee with a shot of rum). I'm back home to thaw out my toes and will head back in for the 1100 ceremony with wreath laying.

Penelope the pussybeast graciously came in, last evening, at 1900 so I was able to go to bed right away and got plenty of rest/sleep prior to getting up this morning at 0200.

That's about it, take care all.

Lest We Forget.

I didn't know that. I will look into that. The ones we got were "Endless summer" ... We have one in the back that blooms on the "old stems." Wonder if there is a way to take a cutting from that and plant it? Interesting. We bought a few hostas this year, but we transplanted several of the old ones that are starting to pop up. I broke up several hosta groups and planted when I found they cost $20 in a quart pot. Thanks for the info.

M7040, I had shoulder surgery in 2018. Cured my shoulder pain. But required PT caused on of my Biceps to break off. PT was required before I could get a MRI. It’s a Medicare rule. They do not repair this on a person my age. While I have no more pain in that arm. It does not have the strength it had before injury. It’s why I have changed over to battery operated tools. Be careful with PT. I now have a Popeye arm. It’s where the bicep has rolled up in my upper arm.

Ron, thank you so much for your comments. I think I can live with some pain mostly when reaching behind me and limiting the use with tools on that arm. The PT person I am using is very careful but I will for sure not go heavy in order to not tear it up more. Plan to do the MRI in a couple of weeks. Again thank you

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! to Mrs. Jay (Peg) hope she has many more.

Material gathering was successful! Except for the part when they charged for an extra 2 2x4's.... $14 worth. I didn't notice until after getting home. Oh well....

No rain yet.... I don't think it is going to happen. Just way to dry at the surface. Humidity is only 12%. Clouds moved in, but nothing dropping....

RNG, you reported the "super bloom" in Cali before the news.... they showed the colors can be seen from space! Must be spectacular in person!

Drew, glad you got the Gravely running better. Hopefully running some fresh gas will cure the rough running.

Everyone have a pleasant evening!
