Good Morning!

God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly).

51.1F, going to mid 60s.

up wayyy too early, been up two hours already, answered Nature‘s Call and never fell back asleep. Found this on YouTube, fun to watch:


going to try to catch at least a bit of nap before sun comes up. TTYL 👍

48 going to 64. Never got the rain that kept threatening yesterday.

Yep, Kilroy, you need a nap.

Stayed busy yesterday doing some reorganizing in the tool shed and barn, and installing some new tool hangers, but still got a maintenance hike in at 5pm. Helped my wife plant her new flowers...looking good. Needed to go back in the woods to change batteries and card in a trail cam...have been avoiding that area because Larry comes out nearly everyday...the name my wife gave to a turkey that seems to wander all over our fields feeding. He had a couple of hens, but they've gone to nest.

Good Morning

my appt with the lawyer went reasonably well yesterday (Mon). so much to think about, but I FINALLY feel like I was being heard by somebody (other than friends, family) who can make a difference in my circumstances. this is just the start, but there is a direction now, and for that I am grateful. I paid the retainer, and my lawyer will now be contacting my (estranged) wife's lawyer this week to see if her / their verbal buy-out proposal and details, can be put to writing. then we can respond. Everything feels like a loose end, and yet I had that gut-wrenching feeling that things were moving towards a final resolution. I'm still sad, confused, and numb about all of this, but I now have a lawyer that understands and will cut to the chase. A LOT to sort out, much to clarify, and most of the "dirt" to stay under the rug (my choice). Praying that I am making the right decisions. Mud slinging won't help matters, though i have a lot of notes in the event that details are needed. Lawyer believes that this can be resolved without going to Court first, and that would be the goal. My head is spinning with thoughts, responses, and details.

Managed to have a nice visit with my grandson (14 mos) and his parents, after my appointment. Dinner was good.

Glad to hear you are getting some rudder response in a confused sea.

I don’t have bird feeders (other than ones I use in the chicken coop 😁) but I have pondered a way of making them bear resistant/bear-proof.

basically, you need two trees/poles, fasten one end about 15-20 feet up, run the line through a clothesline pulley on the second pole (or even use two pulleys). Fasten your feeders every couple feet along the line, then raise them up. If it is too much weight, maybe some 3/16 steel cable and a boat winch.

just a thought….

Good morning, 41 going to 50 with light rain expected.

Did not sleep well and had to get up with cramp in legs so got up early and walked Cody before daylight.

Going to last appointment for PT this morning. Dr yesterday explained what I can do and not do to avoid further injuries to rotator cuff.
Then going over to get booster number 3 for covid. That coupled with having had the virus should hopefully create good antibodies and protection for the virus.

Scaredy, glad you are getting expert help to sort it out!!

Kilroy, this is a historic picture of Bechtel's early construction work using excavators.
