Hi guys! Supposed to be 73 degrees today. It's hard to believe I need to mow the yard in the middle of December, but guess I'll do it today. I guess I'll wear a Santa hat or something.

Scotty- Hope you get home without too many more windshield smears.

I hate it when that happens. Looks like grease but itsnot.

Get up and get going.. Coffee and ph00 are on. Bride seems to be doing better every day. Had to tackle her to keep her from engaging the basement stairs and do laundry last night. Maybe I'll let her play Monday.

Now racing to get the wood in the shed before some more snot.....er snow. Warm weather made a muddy sloppy mess of the last 6 inches. This one will lay down over the the resulting mud and really make a mess, then freeze. I plan on getting royally stuck in my own driveway. Neighbor has a logging mule (Forwarder). I think he'll be able to pull me out.

Not as bad as when I moved in here 45 years ago. Got a 2 ton dump truck stuck in the middle of the driveway and had to crawl out a window.

A very happy Saturday morning to all. Hope your weather is at least as half
as nice as ours. Wow, gorgeous out there.

Put some ph00 and coffee on - - - another week is over and done. Going way too fast. Birthday this week, Christmas the next. Always got cheated for Christmas - - or birthday, pending the year. Mom and Dad could only afford one nice present, sooooo????? They did their best and I was always grateful.

Grabbing my ph00 and go out and water and clean up the lanai - - maybe take a dip - - sure nice.

You haven't lived until you had to scrape the frost off the inside of your windows.
Upper teens and snow. Looks like a white seasonal celebration of your choice.
All alone in the building at work these days. What is left of our flight crew is now across the street. On the bright side, I am able to treat my HDAD (high definition audio disorder) without annoying anyone (too bad).

Hey Coug - - you made my day. I thought I was dead, but now I find out I am not. Boy I feel better. This Florida boy well remembers frost/ice on the inside of my car windows in Minnesota. Why do you think I am in Florida.................

It is gorgeous out there today - - my flowing plants are going nuts. I fertilized about 20 days ago and they are saying thank you. Still working on sorting out this new computer and all it's dumb apps - - hate those things.

More................................gone.

72 degrees today. Got the 5 ft mower out that I pull with the wheeler. Wifey was laughing at me zigzaging around, but at least the tall spots are gone. I decided to try it for a mulcher with the leaves in the side yards. I quit when the blades stalled and I smoked the belt.

The 89 in my sig has been having a intermittent backfire out of the tailpipe once it gets good and warmed up. After I make the voluntold cookies with the little kids in the family tomorrow, I think I'll run it in the shop and figure it out. I'm betting one of the injectors in the throttle body doesn't have a good spray. Between the time I sold it and bought it back 7 years later, less than 1000 miles had been put on it. I'll put the timing light on it and check the spray pattern with the light. At least that's the plan for now.

Saw the ice and frost many times on the inside.
Every Winter.
Not this season so far.


Reflecting on my Gratitude lately.
Have to stave off the bad mojo swirling around this planet.

Peace to olive ewe. ~

Thinking its time to look for another job.
Got my butt chewed for adjusting truck brakes the other day.
Didn't know automatic slack adjusters never need manually adjusted.
90 thousand gross weight on 5 axles and no engine braking to speak of appearantly has no bearing on it.
