Morning all!
55 going to a raining 72.
Got the cabinet installed in the bathroom Saturday. While I was there I removed the tub drain and cleaned it all out so it drains now!

That should be it now for this room!
Delivered the second wagon wheel that I repaired. Wagon has fallen off it's blocks and now needs floor work!! Brother says he will drop off the whole thing to my house once it is movable again.
Working at a different sister's house today if I can beat the rain. Needs storm gutter cleaned and a few other odds and ends.
Didn't do much yesterday but visit a little and enjoy our front porch. We did take a ride in the afternoon.

Small project done in the wood shop this week. Little ring box made out of a scrap/burl of apple.

Never seen a light fixture like that...very interesting.

I call those desserts quality calories.
if you are going to eat the "bad" stuff, make sure it's very very good.
and for most folks once a month seems safe
as a pre-diabetic, I would make sure that was the only sugary thing I had that day.
everyone's body reacts/processes/recovers differently

I started a diabetes thread here just to learn.
maybe taking wegovy will help
but if I'm willing to stick a needle in my gut every week
I'm also more serious about being careful with food choices.

60 percent of our bodies is water. Stay hydrated.
but folks with more fat are only about 55 percent water, fat holds less water
so perhaps not a stretch to think that overweight folks need more hydration since their
water tank is smaller. ?

waiting for call back from Verizon
they did online diagnostics and it failed
2 down 136 up, should be 300/300

at one point I broke out laughing dealing with the AI
auto assistant.
It kept asking
would you repeat that?
and I'd reply would you repeat that
and back and forth we went
finally, thankfully, I must have timed out and got into
the service loop.
would I like 35 minutes on hold or a call back.

well, it was this morning's entertainment
I must admit I was baiting the AI, you just knew there was no one
human back there

Good Morning
58° and a brilliant sun is shining. High of 78 forecast today.

Thank you everyone for the well wishes. We had a great time with family and close friends.

Yesterday I did get all the mowing outside the pastures done with the Lazer and the Progressive behind the Kubota. Did a bit of RC flying with my son, Zoe had fun chasing the planes.

All the rain from last week changed the landscape from brown to green.

The red Panterra in Drew’s car show pictures belongs to a friend of mine, I recognized it immediately.

Good Morning,
Vt,55 to start going to 68 with sunny skies now but we did get a fair amount of rain last night so I’m glad I got the lawn done !

Phil, very interesting light fixture, and nice work on the little bowl made from scrap !

Bill, I’m sure you will figure out the conversion method, probably a series of button pushes or holds ! Sounds like it might be similar to setting the clock on my Polaris Ranger !

Time to get going out in the shop !

Hope all have a good start to there Monday ! 🙏

Good Morning!!!! 52F @ 5:30AM. Partly cloudy skies. Expect mist and reduced visibilities at times. High 73F. Winds WNW at 10 to 15 mph.

Interesting lamp, Phil. What's it called?

I delivered on the blueberry pancakes yesterday morning, and it held my buddy and I over until a late lunch/early dinner. We web ordered a selection of take out goodies from a Japanese restaurant and took them to a local park, laying out the spread on a bleacher in the shade of a big eucalyptus tree. Then went exploring on new to us trails much to the dog's delight. The only thing better than having a dog is someone else's dog you don't have to care for (or clean up after).🤣

Need to get packed up this morning for a return trip north, then head over to another friend's to get some help with the two way radio setup on the motorcycle. Not much else planned for the day.

Hope everyone's week gets off to a grand start!

I liked that lamp fixture too, nice design, maybe art deco?

spent over an hour on phone with AI and then FIOS tech. All to waste time when they
had to send a tech out.
Who is coming tomorrow morning.

picked some veggies, not much, headed out to fill a wagon with clippings, garden needs a haircut
particularly the blackberry vines. No fruit on you? off you go if you are over the line...

lovely day out

Morning all, 70 going up to 81 and sunny.
Spent most of the day with the weed wacker and doing yardwork.
Also putting out pool furniture for upcoming use.

My solar hot water pump died last night. I think when they replaced my furnace they did not put enough antifreeze in the system. New Taco motor cartridge and some af on order.

L4N - Happy birthday to Jr

The Buck and does have been hanging around the house for the last few days

The bar/table is out and ready for the weekend. They are calling for rain, that would be disappointing. Bench is resting in the sun. Need to and down the pool bar today.
