Our shepherd is the same way with any treatment or pill. Pills, I just call her to the kitchen. Balance the pill on my index finger, and she will take it. She had to get some athletes foot powder put on her paws for a bit one spring. I would have lay down, then get her to roll on her back for...

I just purchased a late model used truck last month. Snow storm shut down the state so mail didn't run. Hit day 31, still hadn't received the paperwork, lienholder info, or when my first payment is due. So I stopped by the dealership Wednesday afternoon and got the lienholder info. Called...

Years ago we had a 30yo toilet that needed replacing. My roommate went to one of the big box stores to pick up a new one. While he was gone, I pulled the old toilet and set it outside by the garage. While out there I had anphone call come through on my cell phone. Without thinking, I flopped...

Our shepherd likes to help with folding laundry [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16][emoji16] we will dump.the baskets on the bed to fold it and put it away. She has to climb up and lay across the pile of warm clothes. [emoji1787][emoji23][emoji1787][emoji23] Then out come the teeth when you try to get...

Same here, although I got three propane tanks in the garage, and a propane grill I haven't used in two years [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16][emoji16] Back when we had the RV and dealing with 30lb tanks, plus grilling with the propane grill, the local propane place used to see me on a regular basis...

I only exchange them when they are out of date. I can get them refilled for half the cost of an exchange.

I'll take the out of date tank to a store where they are quite busy and have teenagers for the staff. They are less likely to know or care about whether the tank is out of date or not. They will just do the exchange as fast as possible to get back to the cash register...

Neighbor had a similar issue tonight. He's driving a 2wd Tahoe. My wife was texting his wife. His wife made the comment that "The idiot I live with is stuck trying to back in the driveway!!!" [emoji23][emoji1787][emoji23][emoji1787] I walked out and another set of neighbors were trying to push...

19° and snowing pretty decent out today. Only about 2 to 3" at the house, but about 6 to 8" in Little Rock. Further south got upwards to 10" today. Dropped my wife at work this morning. Then I went into the shop to fill a couple emergency orders. Customer supplied the truck to get the...

I suggested they do similar at my wifes work. They had a water line bust in the attic. According to her boss, this has happened before. I suggested heat tape and foam insulation to prevent it from breaking in the future.

-1 at our house. Thermometer in the truck showed -7 in one spot while I was taking my wife to work this morning. Works been canceled till Friday at the earliest. Guy in charge of the Wichita wellpoint job sent out an email wanting people to be there Friday...

When living in the south, you can tell if someone moved down from the north. The first thing they do is clear out the driveway, after a storm [emoji1787][emoji23][emoji1787][emoji23] I spent about 1.5 hours today shoveling the driveway. Got a good workout in the process and can sure feel it...

Just saw the latest weather report. Looks like we are gonna have a repeat of last night and today on Wednesday into Thursday. But projections are for more snowfall then this one. Probably have another "Snow Day" from work. Wednesday or Thursday. Spent an hour or so earlier shoveling the...

Similar with our shepherd. But we have had a couple other dogs that would do the same. We have had a couple dogs now that will cuddle up and tuck their head into your neck when you are having trouble sleeping or in a rough mood. Our shepherd will do this, but she will also lay her paw across...

You will want one this week. Supposed to be 0° tomorrow at 7am. [emoji3063][emoji3063][emoji3063]

Got up early this morning to a couple inches of snow and 9° for a temp. Walked Gypsy, let the truck warm up and drove my wife to work this morning in the truck. Dropped my wife off and then went into the shop. Just as I pulled up to the gate this morning at work, my boss calls and cancels...

We are getting that storm now. Still snowing out, but supposed to peter out for a few hours. Then start back up around 5am till around noonish with a heavier snowfall. They were calling for up to 5 inches, but just updated the forecast. They are saying between 4" and 8" for our area now. That...

Yes they are. And they are also hard handed to someone the first time they file in Arkansas. I received a letter from the state of Arkansas demanding my tax returns for the year prior to me moving to the state. They were demanding that I show proof of paying state taxes in another state for...

I got sick after the third hepatitis shot. First two didn't bother me. Third shot, I got sick about 48 hrs after the shot was given.

I would have no issues if it weren't for that quirk with the state taxes. It's pay someone $200 to do our taxes, or lose money that we should be getting back.

Well the hoarders are messing with my chi [emoji2959][emoji2959][emoji2959][emoji2959] Had a nice breakfast planned for my wife this morning. Was gonna make homemade buttermilk pancakes and bacon for breakfast. Well the hoarders struck and cleaned the grocery store out of all milk. So...

There is a little quirk with TurboTax and Arkansas state taxes, where your better off to just have someone do your taxes for you. The issue is with filing jointly versus separately. Federal we file jointly, on the state taxes we file separately. Which the one time we tried turbo tax it...

The only ammo they had was target rounds, which I probably have about 500 or so rounds in an ammo box already. So I didn't bother getting any more. I was looking for some PP rounds which they were sold out of. I'll hit a gun shop for those, or else order some online. Just an FYI. At academy...

30° out at the moment. Wife and I went into town. Had some lunch and ran some errands. Swung by academy sports. Wife wanted to get some new boots. Well, while she went shopping, I went wandering over to the gun section. To my surprise, they actually had guns [emoji15][emoji15][emoji15][emoji15]...

Got a yard full of live oaks. I usually end up with a decent sized burn pile in the spring when I get out there and pick up the oak droppings. Course I have to police the yard for limbs each time I mow.

Thats how it is in our house with tater chips and starburst jelly beans. Tater chips, you will have her undivided attention. You will get hurt if you have Starburst jelly beans and don't give her a preemptive call before opening the bag. If she is in the other room, she will come running and...

You couldn't beat those old slant 6 engines. Brother had a 62 Plymouth with the slant 6 and 3spd on the column.

Hence sanding and salting the driveway. [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16][emoji16] Ditches are also 4ft deep in front of the house. So the only way out is via a tow truck.

Got the day off. I did got to Little Rock though and drop off my work truck and picked my truck back up from the shop. Then ran some errands. Bank was closed today due to that Ice storm that hit Wednesday night. Hopefully they will be open tomorrow. Supposed to stay below freezing till next...

Currently 27 degrees. Not supposed to be above freezing through the weekend. And calling for snow on Monday. Had a cold miserable trip to Wichita. People in charge should have called the job off till it's above freezing. Didnt see the Temps get above 15° the whole week. Add in a steady wind...

Nice over cast and rainy day. Dropped my wife at the hair dressers this morning. Then ran some errands. Back in a service truck again. So I needed to update some tools on the truck. So I did a trip to Harbour freight. Been a couple years since I stopped in. They have definitely upped their...

You sir are doing better then most. [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106] Wife and I both wish we were just on an aspirin. [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16] Start off in the morning with a pill for acid reflux, and 1 at night for cholesterol. High stress job and bad genetics. Body refuses to produce enough...

Wifes tested weekly since she's a health care worker. Sometimes twice weekly depending on the percentage infected for the county. If she had it, or I had it, it would have been passed to the other. I'm naturally anti-social, and keep my distance from people while shopping and avoid road blocks...

Thats not gonna happen on so many accounts. Self isolate indefinitely because they refuse to take something that has worse symptoms then what most people experience from the virus itself. I can guarantee you that my wife won't take another shot of the Moderna vaccine, ever again after the...

Shes doing better since I got her to take some excedrin migraine. Which I think the vaccine triggered one. She's back to the land of the living. I bet someone will learn some new language though if they try to give her another dose of Moderna. [emoji13][emoji13][emoji13] I'll be waiting for...

Thats good to hear. Wife got her second Moderna shot yesterday. First shot felt like she got a mule kick to the shoulder starting the day after the shot that lasted for three days. Second shot produced the mule kick after a couple hours. Then came a fever, cold chills and sweats, upset tummy...

When I first bought my property, there was a huge pile of brush out back that had been piled there for years. I did some cleaning up around the place. Trimmed some over grown trees and low laying branches. Went out and tossed a match into that pile of brush. By this point it was about 30x60...

Had to look where you were located. That makes sense now. When I lived in Vermont, you had to call for a burn permit. For a while, that person was dad, so we had quite a bit of leeway. After he moved we used to wait till the snow was on the ground, wind was good, and then toss a match in the...

We had a good thunderstorm roll through around 4am. Wife woke up and realized she was wearing an 80lb fur turbin [emoji23][emoji1787][emoji23][emoji1787][emoji23] Our baby girl doesn't like thunderstorms and will wedge herself between my wifes head and the headboard on the bed. Rain moved out...

Actually yes, a little 5 hr drive south to Texas towards the end of February.

Heres a picture

Morning. Nice and balmy 35 degrees out and dreary. Had a busy weekend. Yesterday we spent the day at the Car dealers [emoji33][emoji33][emoji33] My old Sierra 1500 started knocking on start up till it got warm. It's been starting to turn into a money pit, so we made the decision to go truck...

My insert has a variable fan as well. We updated windows, doors, and added insulation. Doesn't take much to heat the house anymore. So even when the fan is on low on the insert it will run you out of the house if the outside Temps are mid 30's or higher. So, it only gets used when the...

Snow days [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]

We got the upper shelf in the linen closet packed full of TP, with another 40 count case in the office closet. Bottom of linen closet is full of paper towels as well as a full case in the coat closet in the foyer. We're good for a year or so [emoji849][emoji849][emoji849]

Had an apartment with gas furnace for a year or so. That place seemed worse then the wood stoves for sucking the moisture out of the air. I had quite a lot of issues with chapped skin and sinus headaches there.

We did similar when I was in Vermont. Small wood stove in the living room and a wood burning furnace in the basement. Household rule was if you got up in the middle of the night to pee, you stoked both fires as well. Little different in Arkansas [emoji849][emoji849][emoji849]

Wife and I keep two humidifiers going in the winter time due to our sinuses. One on the breakfast bar which is pretty centrally located for the kitchen/ dining/ living room areas. And one in our bedroom. We have a heat pump and wood burning fire place insert. We stay on the heat pump most of...

Same with 40 west out of Little Rock. For some reason 80mph isn't fast enough for them.

Seen a travel trailer on it's side with the trucks back tires a foot or so off the ground. Guy was traveling to fast and wasn't using any sway bars on his hitch.

Neighbors had some friends over. The friends tested positive a few days later. Neighbor had ridden down the street with one if the friends in a vehicle. No mask on. Neighbors were freaking out because his wife had just had a round of chemo. They kept a close eye on themselves and went and got...

I had one bounce off the side of my truck once. Deer came flying out of the woods as I was going by and it slammed into the truck bed. It lost it's footing, fell over, got back up and hot footed it on up the hill. A couple dogs came running out of the woods a second or two later in pursuit.

Flashlight and cell phone while I was out walking the dog. He was about 30ft from us. I have one of those stream light flashlights that will allow you to see for 300 yards [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16] It's great for blinding stray dogs that are on the attack. I've been seeing between 5 and 9...

Lazy day today. It's cold and dreary outside. Went to breakfast at our favorite mom and pop diner. Came home, got comfy in some sweats, and took Gypsy for a couple walks this afternoon. Making beef tips and gravy tonight for dinner. Will start that about 4 so dinner will be ready around...

I've told this story before. But it's always good for a laugh. Our late miniature dachshund used to run a tight ship when it came to critters in the yard. Except when it came to skunks. When it came to the skunk hanging out in the yard, the darn dog would try to sniff it's butt...

I had our dogs get into something. Instant bath, then they show back up stinking again. [emoji2959][emoji2959][emoji2959] Sat out there for a while watching them. Saw one of them sniff and assume the pre-roll position. I was instantly up, yelling and headed his way...

We used to like splitting ash in the winter time. We would aim the front of the wood splitter up. The splitter would grunt, grown and then a loud pop. And the chunks would launch into the back of the dump truck with very little effort from us...

Been a rough week getting back to work after the holidays. Put in a 14 hr day yesterday. Did get some good news in the middle of a miserable delivery last night. Little man made it home [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16][emoji16] We got to meet him tonight. [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16][emoji16] Wifes...

I used to be the same way and just grin, bear it, and try to be careful. I had a cut off wheel explode one day and had a piece lodge itself in my neck [emoji33][emoji33][emoji33][emoji33] Thankfully it missed anything serious. Especially since I was in the back 40, no cell service, and 1/2 a...

I have to provide 1 toll bone (dental treat) before I can enter the bedroom at bedtime [emoji23][emoji1787][emoji23][emoji1787] She sits in the middle of the doorway and will not move [emoji1787][emoji23][emoji1787][emoji23] She's also a typical girl and loves to shop. She has to inspect and...

Morning. It's a nice and balmy 27 degrees out. Went walking last night. Saw 8 deer out in the field at the end of my street at 9pm. Or I should say, I counted 16 eyes looking at me [emoji33][emoji33][emoji33] Saw the buck again last night when I walked my dog at 11pm. He must be ok. Or there...

Out walking tonight and Gypsy alerted to a critter in the neighbors pasture behind their house. At first I thought one of their goats pulled a houdini and got out of their pen. After watching it, I realized it was a buck. But it was acting strange. It's hind end didn't appear to work...

That didn't sit right with me either. Hence my inner a**hole wanting to come out. Someone would have had the company by the short and curley's if they could have gotten it in writing saying they would be removed from the schedule for not taking the vaccine and then showing the waiver saying...

The owner of the nursing home my wife works for has multiple homes across the state. He informed all the administrators that if an employee doesn't take the vaccine then to remove that employee from the schedule indefinitely. I wished my wife would have gotten them to give that to her in...

That's been a rare thing for me to see someone coughing up a storm out in public lately. But then I've had a couple sneezing fits, but usually can get myself outside when I feel a sneezing fit coming on. Seems people feel the need to still douse themselves in perfume before going out in...

[emoji3060][emoji3060][emoji3060][emoji3060][emoji3060][emoji3060]

Wife had her shot this morning. She got the Moderna. Her only issue was an upset stomach afterwards, but we are figuring a slight allergy to an ingredient.

I try to stay up and ring in the new years........ But usually fall a sleep in my chair or give up about 11:00. When the grandkiddos were younger we would look forward to having them over for new years so their parents could go out. The boys are old enough to stay home alone now. So the only...

Moons been really pretty the past couple nights when I've taken the dog for a walk. There were some interesting cloud formations in the sky last night making the moon look like it had a reddish halo. Deer have been out in the field at the beginning of our street the past few nights. Had 8 sets...

I have after market ones installed on three different work trucks at work. I really like them. Can't remember the brands. But they are pretty much plug and play. Just gotta supply power and run the line for the camera. The two service trucks have night vision as well as gage lines. I like...

Good series [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]

A couple years ago we were colder then Anchorage Alaska for about 5 days. We were getting down to 5° at night and 20° during the day. Anchorage was hitting a balmy 20° at night and 30° during the day. Weather patterns can be pesky little things. [emoji23][emoji1787][emoji23][emoji1787]

Yes she does. [emoji23][emoji1787][emoji1787] she didn't get to work on her training skills. But she got some shopping in. She's currently home making a mess of her rib bone that she picked out [emoji15][emoji15][emoji15]

Morning all, 32° today. The bitter wind that has been blowing the past couple days finally stopped. Gonna try to get a little yard clean up done this afternoon. Got leaves to chop. But if there's zero wind, it will be easier just to toss a match into them. [emoji16][emoji16] Mother nature was...

Went well delivering gifts to my sons house this morning [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106][emoji106] kept my distance and had a good visit. Grandson was really happy about getting the basket ball hoop and stand. Sons happy that the grandkids are voluntarily cleaning the garage so they can set the...

Morning loves while my wife was getting ready for work.

Wow, definitely odd weather. It was 28 yesterday with a high of 32°. And very windy. Today it's 25° currently but very little breeze. Merry Christmas [emoji318] [emoji319]

Nice and cold morning at 35° and windy. Was pretty miserable when out walking our dog. Then went over to my Daughter's house. Let their dogs out for a romp in the yard. Then found their leashes and took them for a brisk walk around their neighborhood. I guess I'm a glutton for punishment today...

Daughter is scheduled to get the vaccine since she's an RN working the neonatal intensive care unit for one of the hospitals. But her baby doctor said that they are recommending to their patients to hold off till the baby is born and your done nursing. Their reasoning was, even though the drug...

It's pretty rough here. We had 10, now 11 birthdays between the end of October thru December. Throw in Thanksgiving, birthday parties for the grandkids and Christmas [emoji33][emoji33][emoji33] The bank account starts crying uncle [emoji15][emoji15][emoji15][emoji15]

This makes all three grandkids born in December. One on the 1st, one on the 16th, and now one either the 23rd or 24th. Just talked to my son in law. Doctor figures sometime tomorrow. Had a friend who was born on Xmas. He saud that it actually stunk. He got his Christmas gifts in the AM, then...

Well we had some good news today. Grandbaby is gonna be here for Christmas [emoji3060][emoji3060][emoji3060][emoji3060][emoji3060][emoji3060][emoji3060] doctors decided to go ahead and induce labor on our daughter. Baby should be here tomorrow [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16][emoji16][emoji16]...

Msple glaze came out good. It's 3/4 cup maple syrup, a little worchestershire sauce, mustard powder, ketchup, salt, apple cider vinegar, and brown sugar. Tastes similar to a sweet and sour sauce.

Turkey fryer is a giant pot on top of a propane burner. No deep fryer needed. Same kit is used for crayfish boils [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16][emoji16]

Warmer out today in the low 50's. Wifes name came up for covid rotation at her work. So she's got 18 days of 12hr shifts taking care of a covid patient. Thankfully they've been able to keep it down to one or two patients at a time at the nursing home she works for. [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16]...

It doesn't bother me to get it, I'm done having kids. My biggest concern with it being gene therapy is how it will effect the generations that haven't been born yet. Is there gonna be a greater chance for birth defects, learning defects, ect......

You go right by the one in conway when you go see your kid at college [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16][emoji16]

Whole hog in conway is our favorite. I usually do a take out order of a couple racks of ribs, with tater salad and baked beans. Bald Knob is a little far for us to go for dinner.

Heres the finished results [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]

I got a spiral cut honey ham to do up for Christmas. Will make up a Maple and brown sugar glaze for it. Also plan on making some candied carrots, stuffing, green beans, mashed taters, Dutch apple pie, chocolate pie, and some other goodies [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16][emoji16]

Yes sir.... [emoji1787][emoji23][emoji1787][emoji23] That was similar to my first time at a brisket. I invited all the kids over. So we were figuring on 10 of us. Well I misread, had a brain fart and underestimated the time for it to smoke. So, 6 hours before the kids come, I put the brisket...

I set the oven at 250. Usually add some vinegar or broth depending on the meat and what kind of sauce im using. Those chuck roasts I'm doing today are around 6lbs each. So they take around 8 hours with the temp ranging from 225 to 275 on my smoker. So I'll smoke for 4 hours. Then I'll place...

I've actually found it's much easier and more consistent to oven finish. Discovered that with some country ribs I was doing. It started pouring so I brought them in and popped them.in the oven when it was time to tinfoil. They just fell apart. After that, I smoke, then finish in the oven every...

Nice and balmy 38° out this morning, so I figured it would be a good time to fire up the smoker [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16][emoji16][emoji16] Daughter and son in-law are coming over for dinner tonight. Got 12lbs worth of chuck roast for pulled beef on there so we can have some left overs...

Installed the mulching kit on my zero turn today. Instructions said to remove the deck. I left the deck on. Lowered the deck to the lowest setting, then put it on my lift instead. Took about 1 hour start to finish with running to the hardware store for the correct socket. Then tried it out on...

If you've gone across 64, then you've been within 2/10 of a mile from my house. If your back around that area during Breakfast time, Sawbucks Restaraunt at the stop light in Elpaso Arkansas is the place to go. There lunch and dinner are okay. But there breakfast rocks...

Looks like iron in the water. Even though it's fresh and clean it will still have minerals in it. Those minerals will collect on surfaces over time. Iron, calcium and lime usually play havoc on those little pumps. I'll have to remember to take pictures of a salt water pump the next time I...

Yeah, and they sure don't like gas with ethanol in it either. Boss had two Stihl saws. One was larger with the 20" bar. The other was a small easy start for limbing. That easy start always gave him fits. I think he finally got fed up and sold it.

My Husqvarna will start everytime. It's old faithful. The last can of gas I mixed up for it was about 2 years ago. Used non-ethanol gas for the mix. I had to do some large limb cleanup after a storm. Grabbed that can from two years ago, gave it a shake to mix the oil in, and filled up the...

They are quite numerous around my area. Usually encounter them about once a month while walking the dog. A couple of times I've been able to keep the dog quiet and watch it root around in the neighbor's yard or the ditch along my street.

My dog can tell whose coming down the street. She gets excited and comes to the fence when my wife or I pull onto the street. Although it really confused her for a few days when momma got a new car. She wasn't sure if she needed to bark or wag her tail...

They better update their dental plan around here. People don't appreciate a busy body getting up in someone's buisiness. Especially when someone usually does elaborate Xmas displays for their neighbors enjoyment.

Especially after being canceled the first time.

Nieces wedding was good today. Although with their luck it almost didn't [emoji15][emoji15][emoji15] Here's the back story.. Niece and her husband tried to do a destination wedding in Florida back in April. Two days before they were to get married, the venue called them and canceled due to...

I saw the same thing. Can't remember where I saw it posted. Maybe here on a different thread. This was the year locally to go black Friday shopping. There wasn't squat for people out.

I would have found them when I walked the dog just before going to bed. Amazon has been running really late in our area. They scared the daylights out of my daughter delivering a package at 9pm to her house over the weekend.

Santa came early and delivered a mulching kit for my Z121S zero turn. Should cut the time down for chopping leaves [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106][emoji106][emoji106] Installation will wait till Sunday most likely. Niece is getting married Saturday

Got an email that popped up on my phone from Amazon that some packages were delivered. Found them in the middle of the driveway. Glad the rain had stopped.

Raining this morning. Was planning on puttering around outside today and taking the pooch to the walking trail in town. But looks like it will be sitting around with a good book instead. Need to get the mulching kit ordered for the zero turn. Got a call from our daughter last night. She had a...

Is it still not coming through? Or are you having a computer glitch? You double posted with an add on to the second post

Here it is again. It's popping up.on mine still.

No snoring. But she's taking a break as well. She helped with installing my wifes new entertainment center, as well as hooking the electronics up to the new TV. It was rough work making sure dad did it right and giving him kisses everytime he was in a compromising position...

33° out this morning. Supposed to get up to 60° today. Got a Dutch apple pie in the oven. And made up some of my famous fruit salad as well. We are having dinner at our daughter in laws parents house tonight. Should be about 10 or so people there. Once the pie is out of the oven I'll head out...

Went to town this morning. Breakfast at Denny's. Then across the street to academy sports to get some ideas for Xmas gifts for the grand kiddos. Then to Sam's club for a few things. Sam's club actually had two pallets of Lysol spray. [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16][emoji16] It felt like we hit the...

We've noticed similar reporting trends. It seems that the news is laser focused on the doom and gloom. They reported recently that a rural hospital was at "MAX" capacity. Later as a foot note in the report they touched on the capacity for that hospital. Their covid ward was set up to handle 3...

We replaced our old door bell with a wireless one. After installing it, we would get random rings when no one was at the door. [emoji848][emoji848][emoji848] A couple weeks later I was talking to the renters in the house next door. They mentioned that they would randomly get rings as well when...

It's not really being an anti-vaxxer. How many class action lawsuits are there being advertised on television about some drug where they are discovering serious negative effects later on down the road? Heck, I saw one for baby powder the other day. There is a large portion of the population...

I wouldn't even try now. She's 80lbs and thinks the funnest thing out there is attacking a water stream and chomping her way to the source.... [emoji15][emoji15][emoji15][emoji15]

I tried peeing off the back deck when potty training the shepherd and getting up with her in the middle of the night. She was more interested in the stream I was making [emoji15][emoji15][emoji15][emoji15] Nothing like having to dance around in a circle to avoid the dog...

I blow mine off the fence. Then chop them up with the riding mower. If not, or would take me weeks to get them contained.

We are going to our son's in-laws house for Thanksgiving dinner. We'll bring a couple desserts, and a side dish. Then Friday is a 3 hr drive up to see some other family members.

Yeah, they did. Coworker pointed it out. [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji1787][emoji1787][emoji1787][emoji1787] Apparently there was a "see all options" button [emoji849][emoji849][emoji849][emoji849] The vegetarians are getting screwed. That option is 16 veggie burgers that looked like they...

Company usually has a holiday party every year for each location. They chose not to this year. Instead they gave us each a link and access code to Omaha steaks website. With three options. Steaks, chops, chicken, burgers and dogs. Steaks, shrimp, and stuffed sole. Or seafood: 4 split...

Got home last night from vacation. So this morning we went out with mom for breakfast, before she headed back home. She was nice and came down to dog sit for us for the week. Went to town, picked my truck up from the dealers. Then hit Sam's club to stock up on drinks for our daughters baby...

Two other pluses from coming from high elevation. You can smoke flatlanders in a foot race. And drink them under the table.

3.6??? We had the option of a remanned engine. But after this one tanking at 156k miles I lost all faith in them. Wife got a loaded Buick Encore. Gonna take us a month or so to figure out all the bells and whistles. 2020's had lots of incentives and rebates. I've dealt with the elevation...

Ruidoso. Vacation started out a little rough though. We got 3/10 of a mile from our Airbnb Saturday, and my wifes jeep through a rod. Was gonna be $7k for a new motor, so we ended up buying a new car Monday. Stress level dropped once we were mobile again. Went up the mountain by Ski Apache. Saw...

Vacationing in New Mexico. Got to talking to a local at a shop about 40 miles from where we are staying. He said if you wanted to see some elk, hit the local elementary school soccer fields at sunrise. He wasn't lying [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16][emoji16]

I have a chargriller smoker with the side mount fire box, so i use a mix. I use the B&B oak lump charcoal and the B&B pre-seasoned fire wood. I found using the fire wood gives me the best consistency for heat. Once the dampers are set. I can walk away for 4 hours and the heat will stay pretty...

Gypsy is enjoying some momma time [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16]

Grandkids said "make me!!" When my wife went in and told them it was time to get up. I walked back, opened up the door and told Gypsy "Go get your boys!!!" [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16]

Not quite that long term. But........

Found me a good Cuban sandwich. [emoji41][emoji41][emoji41][emoji41] First one I've had in years. Had to go 1200 miles from home. But man it was good [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16]

I dont know where you came up with that. But then I'm not tech savvy anyway. This is what I see.

Wife sent me this, figured it would be a good spot to share. :D :D

:eek:

My commute into the city this morning. I counted maybe 50 vehicles coming out of the city during a 5 mile stretch. Saw 3 vehicles way off into the distance in front of me. And had two vehicle way behind me. Normally it's 50 cars around me on a sunday morning.

Where we going dad!!!! I've been a good girl!!!!

Someone stole the pillow :D

Hey!!!! You got bacon!!!!!!!

She was really happy last night to have her boys over :D

Rough night!!!

Lazy sunday afternoon head scratches :D

Rough night!!!!

Or it was the cat

Here's a picture of the one I had. It offered 4 way sway control.

Boss was wondering why it was taking so long to get the gate, so she climbed up front to check on me :D:D

Wasp stings don't just effect us. My wife was out walking the dog after I went to work last night. Our baby girl found a ground wasp nest and got stung at least 7 times in her muzzle. I had my wife dose her with benadryl last night, and then gave her a second dose 4 hours later since her face...

Mommas getting cuddles

Came across this wreck. Guy was using a break over chain style weight distribution hitch. Couldn't tell if they used sway bars or not. There's a dip in the interstate on a corner about 400ft back. Figuring he got squirrelly and over corrected.

Saw this today. They didn't make it to the highway before they were rethinking there decision. :D Figuring one good bump and the gutter would have folded

Got a tool cabinet. This way I have a spot to lock up my over flow stuff that won't fit in my tool box. And set up a charging station for my cordless tools. This is the first thing Craftsman that a I've gotten since I started boycotting sears 13 years ago over warranty hassles on there tools...

Just shut off the lights when you leave!!!!! I'm good right here!!!!!

Rough night :D:D

Here's the picture. I couldn't edit it in.

My wife caught.me.in bed with my other women :eek::eek::eek:

Loving on the kids :D

Momma got wrapped up like a Canoli :D:D:D

I love it when they get your "Fleas" :D

I would just wait and see what happens :D YouTube here I come!!!!!! :D:D:D

Nice hitch pin :eek::p:D

Not sure where I'm gonna sleep :(:( They look pretty comfy though :D:D

Lap full of shepherds :D Dog sitting this weekend so we have our Shepherd Gypsy's twin brother over.

That's so true. We're heading out in the morning with the grand kids for a week. We have a 30ft bumper pull ultralight with one slide. Campers 9 years old. We've owned it for 3 years and paid about 3 vacations for it. We can sleep 4 adults and 4 kids, and at $25 to $45 per night at a campground...

Ok guys, was running errands after work today. Temperature was 103 in the shade. Got to the grocery store and a car in the parking lot had a dog left inside. Vehicle was not running. Went inside and had the grocery store clerk page for the owner of the vehicle and explained what was going on...

Here's something I noticed over the weekend. Thought this was an isolated case, but after driving 500 miles that day, and passing 6 other moving trucks towing a car with the same set up, I realized this is the normal for them. Nothing on the back of the vehicle. Front end has two ratchet straps...

I don't know about y'all, but I'm sleeping in!!!

Momma is getting some cuddles :D

Picture really doesn't for it justice. Rear straps were loose and flopping. Front end was tied to the front rail on the trailer. Straps appear to be those 500lb rated straps from harbor freight.

We know you have food!!!!!!

Here's mine. Not as fancy as some on here :rolleyes: 09 GMC Sierra, with my 16ft dove tail landscape trailer. Had to run over to pops house today to do some brush hogging. Here's my other trailer :D 29ft Jayco ultralight. This one causes the truck to grunt a little bit :rolleyes:

Saw this today. Popped the pic while stopped at a light. Followed him about a mile. He almost lost it twice when hitting bumps.

Gypsy is a Jeep Girl :D As you can see by the look on her face. Wife jokes that she's my girlfriend. For the most part where I am at home, she is right there with me. Only exceptions is if there are kids or my wife has food :rolleyes: With the kids, she takes her babysitting duties very...

This made me speechless :banghead: :banghead:

Mommas little helper :thumbsup: I honestly think she's trying to tell my wife enough on the laundry, it's time for bed :D

Hey guys. Just figured I would post a recent experience. Woke up one morning a few weeks ago with my knee hurting. Didn't think to much of it though. Being that I'm a mechanic by trade and getting older, I'm jused to being stiff and sore. Also if I feel little pinches and such, they tend to be...

I learned a couple years ago, to not water the flower beds while my shepherd is out. She thinks water sprayers are the best things to attack :rolleyes: This was while trying to change the water and wash out her kiddie pool.

Saw this today during a windstorm in Denver Colorado. Winds were insane with gusts up to 80mph :eek Just after I snapped the picture, a big gust came through. Actually thought the truck was gonna flip over. Granted, the gutters probably don't weigh much. But they were acting as a sale.

4 chains and binders is required on equipment 10,000 lbs and higher. Under 10,000 lbs, only one chain and binder is required front and back per federal guidelines. Each state may have different guidelines, so you need to make sure and check your state. That being said, you also need to make...

Here's my Gypsy girl.

When I built mine, I ended up spending close to the same as what it would cost to buy one. Rippers you can buy for pretty reasonable through agrisupply. I bought a cutting edge from king kutter. One thing I did on mine was make a tailgate that flipped up just above the cutting edge. It...

Got a chance to pick up a Woods DuAl loader off a Massey 1010 for a pretty reasonable price. Will it fit my old Kubota L1501?

Honestly, if a neighbors being a PITA. This would probably be my response :D:D:laughing:

One of our dogs has food allergies so we've tried just about every brand. Science diet works best for him. We did notice that switching all the dogs to a higher quality food, greatly improved there coats and all around health.

Any one replace the hydrostatic belt on a 2007 or later model lt1045? A simple belt replacement turned into a nightmare. And am wondering if there are any tricks besides tearing the whole thing completely apart :mad:

seriously, he's not spoiled:rolleyes:

Just joined, and figured i would introduce my self. Currently living in vilonia arkansas. Have a kubota l1501 grey market. Absolutely love it. I'm married with 3 kids, 2 grandkids, and a couple of crack headed dogs.:cool:
