Good morning!!!!

[txdon]

That's pretty, but a lot of corners to clean.

Used the central vacuum system today cleanIng went quickly. That thing really sucks.

And are you interviewing realtors to sell your old place, or doesn't it work that way in Texas?

I have a realtor, (2.5%) she helped us acquire the new place, her co worker was the sellers realtor and we put a 24 hour deadline on our offer. On the other 4 "well built" houses that have come up for sale in the last 6 months we put a contract on but California people also wanted them and I don't do bidding wars well.

The realtor group that will preview our home is our realtors co-workers, they offer suggestions and get first dibs on new listing showings so their clients can do what we did. They were supposed to come tomorrow but we were running behind on make ready so we postponed it till next week.

Don I believe it would be the Black cable on the Router that would go to the Modem.

I gave up and called Larry the cable guy to come out tomorrow and figure it out I'll let you know which one.

Am going to see if i am allowed to double up on the physio. And also if someone visits if they can bring me some ribs.

Good to hear you are still splitting our ribs. I'd bring you a rack of raw asparagus with no salt!

Used the central vacuum system today cleanIng went quickly. That thing really sucks.

There are but a few things that, when they suck, it is a good thing. I have used a central vac before, and it worked well, but the hose was really long. The thing I liked the most about it was it took all the microscopic dust out to the garage closet, which had a switched exhaust fan.

Work went well today. Got to cut some tungsten carbide 3D printed inserts, on the wire EDM. Left a brassy surface finish, but the researcher was just glad we could cut them, make them flat and parallel. Our resident QC guys know what flat and parallel means.

You can have parallelism, without something being flat. Imagine a lays potato chip. it is the same thickness throughout the chip, but not flat.

Cut some new design parts on the cnc plasma. I guess I should be documenting small nuances in parameters, but we are still learning.

Trying to teach my student workers how to be more communicative. They are really smart, but not so talkative. Talking might be a dying art....but not online here.

Don, would love to see some more "peeks" of your new home.

Prayers for our team.

woodpecker must have miners in family dna, still going to town on stump
he almost disappears into the holes he's dug, comes up with head all covered with dirt and bits
he picks up small stuff and chucks it to the side like a little excavator working

Have never seen a woodpecker going after a stump like that!

Drinking first cup of coffee. 48° with clear skies this morning. Headed to 76° with mostly sunny skies. Did some more garden pond cleanup. Then some more garden weeding. Got all 30 bags of mulch out of barn. Placed them where they will be spread around gardens. Later today plan to start spreading out. Frist thing this morning I will be heading out to see if I can get some good pictures of Eagles at the golf course.

Everyone stay well and safe.

Good Morning All.

Nice turkey Ron

Prayers for all our Country

 

[Looking4new]

[txdon]

Good morning! 69˚F heading only to the mid 70s with a good chance of rain.
Little Hospice will have to go to the vet today, he has an infection in his paw.
We got the moving truck from the realtor and hopefully can get the "extra stuff" moved to the new house to make this house look good when it hits the market next week.

 

[daugen]

good morning all
a cloudy 61 going up to 68 today, cloudy all day
picking up some cheese steaks from NJ Mikes later this morning and taking them over to BIL
who is home with his new knee. I hope this second knee works great for him. Once his wife said they had already talked
to someone about getting involved in existing class action suit on the recalled knee, which he didn't tell me,
I told her I bowed out of giving advice.
When someone thinks they know all there is about legal actions, I smile quietly and exit stage left. Her husband is a
not well educated know it all. Family....so I grind my teeth and be quiet.

when someone says this doctor of theirs is the best, and that doctor is the best, and of course this other thing is the best,
well time not to discuss, won't end well. I just try to find the positive in the situation, and extract myself as soon as possible.

sixteen bucks for a full size hoagie at NJ Mikes. Guess no pushback on prices for them

then a school board finance meeting by zoom at 5pm. Already studied the spreadsheets sent out,, all looks well, a routine meeting.
Then another meeting, an open house for the new construction, tomorrow afternoon. Spring is a busy time for schools. But I go off the board end of June so trying to make all the meetings before then. 9 years is enough for me.

Don, watch your back.

 

[riptides]

55 outside this AM, wet, fog rolling in, humid, heading to upper 70's today. Suppose to be rain free today, before another round starts.

Mushrooms are popping up all over.

With the rain yesterday, nothing got done. Just tended to the animals and did household chores.

Today, well late in the day, I need to take the wifes tractor around the perimeter of the property for cleanup and trail maintenance.

Our turkey population is way down so far this year. I have seen only three at the most in the back. Usually they number in the thirties and forties.

Hope all have a great day, be safe. Those ailing, get well soon.

Kyle you are right about the central vac. The long hose is a pain but the exhaust directly to outside and the powerful suck is very nice.
Here is a pic in the back yard where the rack of asparagus can be cooked.

 

[daugen]

Boy that looks nice Don. Soon you will be barbecuing away there.
is that a fridge, freezer or ice machine?

 

[Buppies]

Nice grilling area Don
