It's my pot and I'll stir it if I want to. If you're not careful, I'll stir your's as well!

Morning folks Bob, thanks for the coffee and the 'healthy' donuts.

The strange weather I mentioned yesterday continued. Some of the areas around me had what appeared to be mini cloudbursts with localized flooding.

Heading outside shortly to go and wash my wife's chariot. Today is her weekly grocery day and she likes a clean vehicle when she goes out.

For those with large families, here is the vehicle to stop those squabbles between your kids on long trips. Everybody can have their own row of seats; BBC - Autos - A limousine as big as Texas

Taking leave today to do the Doctor thing with the Bride. Nothing serious, just a visit for currency. Maybe take advantage of the time to do something fun afterwords. My idea is stopping by the airport, but I bet that's not on her "list of fun things".

70's again today. I'm kinda liking this wx. Storms passing through Friday, then back to normal temps.

HELLO!!!! WHERE ARE U????

Gotta be kidding - - no one around since 10ish this morning. I have been going like a Banshee all day. Just stopped a few minutes ago - - exhausted, but happy with accomplishments for the day. Cleaned up White Ghost this morning - - been way too long. Sure looks good when washed up.

Grabbing a refill and watch the news. Be good.

I am here. Been running around all day too.

Wife reported that her car turned over sluggishly this morning, so needed to check that before I hit the road early. On checking, the battery posts had 12.65 volts, but a check after the fusible link only had 11.3 volts. Hmmmm. Everything looked clean, but dismantled everything that could be dismantled and cleaned all the contacts. Did not find anything that looked like it could cause a bad contact, but now have battery post voltage on everything. Charging rate is good.

Time for my nightly tea and apple.

Huevos rancheros, camarones and tostados for you know who.
That's my best effort of a guess to the spelling.
Pumpkin spice phoo, lots of other things I found by the dragon and in the cupboards.

Lary is at a Legg pageant, hopefully his drolling frozen bloody mouth adds to his success.

My wife gets a root canal today.

'Tis only the dragon and I. Coffee and that other stuff is hot, fresh and ready to be consumed. Breakfast tacos and assorted fillings are on the table.

Another beautiful day is dawning down here in Paradise. So far it is a cloudless morning with Venus shining brightly.

Hope all of you have a wonderful and constuctive day. Wonder if Lary survived?

I see that Scotty and I posted at almost the same times. Strange, never noticed you bumbling around in the breakroom. Between the two of us, y'all have lots of Mexican goodies this morning.

3. Chew

What kind of crazy are you?

Hey JM! (puts clean, socked feet up on counter) waiting on a meeting today, missed my morning farmer coffee- he always makes it. not today. oh well, the sheep greeted me.....

Stan, you get me curious on coming down for the orphanage, stop that.

Fiver, send some Florida orange energy up north..I need one uninterrupted day to just clean and organize....

Ed, yes I know- it sounded easy and interesting. that's what gets me in trouble, then no time for my projects...... hint use only six point sockets.
bet his steering springs went or the oil pump? hmmmmmm.....weather is turning....do dit do

ok, off to look important (ha!)

Heidi, ( & anybody else) come on down. There is always LOTS to do at the orphanage. Building projects, electrical and plumbing work. Also unfortunately the vehicle maintenance never seems to stop either. There are quite a few vehicles there. Just a couple of hours ago received a call that the newest Ford E350 passenger van was 'stumbling'. Got someone to pull the codes and it shows oxygen sensors on both banks are suspect plus the MAF is not good.

Right now we are about to buy another gate opener. Large double swing gates. Have a guy going up to the states in a couple of weeks and he will bring the system back with him. Guess who will be installing it? You want the job?

The major problem is lack of money and many projects are delayed until the funds can be raised. However, come on down and I can guarantee that we will keep you VERY busy.
