Feel like this AM. Too many things going on and I ain't gettin' enough rest I guess. I'm involved in 3 businesses and they're either all busy at the same time, or all dead at the same time. This is one of those busy times!

SR in a grass skirt and a coconut bra... oh yeah, THAT does a lot for the mental image bank!

Have a good Friday!

Mornin’ Everybody

Pistol, I think you need to wrap your whole car in duct tape.

Chrisryen, glad your daughter is okay! Yep, those Hondas can’t withstand much of an impact. I was driving my son’s Civic and a Buck ran into the side of it. Slid the car sideways, did $3000 worth of damage to the drivers side. Scared the poo poo outa me. Wasn’t expecting a Deer to hit me in the city limits of Fayetteville AR at 4 in the morning.

JKE, Here ya go Omelet as ordered! Hope the throat feels better or that crispy bacon is gonna hurt.

Shovelhead, Thanks for the fall back reminder. I hate the time change, screws up my biorhythm.

Shortround, If you’re going to Pearl, say Hi to my Navy Brat AG T. Lawson.

Hotdram, Mmmm breakfast burritos! Thanks for cookin’ now I can turn my stove off for today.

Chaika, Get some rest and I hope you don’t have nightmares of shortround in that grass skirt and coconut bra.

Happy Friday!

Geez... Is it me or the coffee room full this morning? Well good morning everyone.

I think Shovelhead got right with that image...

I've only been out of bed for 10 minutes and the talk of food is getting me hungry! Is there any left-overs?

Breakfast Burritos with lots of tobasco is good thing!

I better go get the morning tea pot going... I really need some right about now... Still blurry eyed...

Well, 3 more pheasant's educated... I was practicing catch and release. Actually, by the time the bird got at a good angle around my friend Cameron, he was getting a little far for the 6 shot I had. I still don't know why I didn't grab 4. Did put a hen up I could've had all day. A little more prep work and maybe I'll have some luck next week.

Took a small batch of logs down to my buddy Doug's band saw to zip up. Turned some into 1x's for interior siding. Had to rip a couple in half for log siding for a few places I was short, and had to flat side a couple for decorative posts and beams. Only killed one of his blades when I caught one of the dogs. I had "old man backing up at a flea- market syndrome". Going slow and watching the blade approach the dog for clearance, I hit fast forward instead of stop or reverse. Well, I'll be back here in OZ for the weekend, keep the coffee cranking...

Back at work again......

Task schedule changes (and informing those that have to actually perform those tasks of the changes at the last minute) means I get to spend another day at work.
Anything to get away from the "Honey-Do" List

Coffee's ready......now where did I hide those sprinkle topped donuts?......

Y'all B safe,

Wow, another gorgeous morning in Paradise. Gotta get at that garage - - cleaning out and being brutal. All those "valuables that I will need someday" just gotta go. I am picturing going full time in the RV while I am doing this - - that places the object in the proper perspective.

Haven't had my so don't talk to me. Bye

Dang ... I always get stuck with the top rack. I'm vertically challenged and have a hard time reachin my skivvies in that coffin locker. ( Good description ... I could almost see the red lighting).

Spent the afternoon jerry-rigging the exaust on the car. No repair shops open to fix it right until next week. Amazing what can be done with soda cans and enough fiberglass .

Fall is here in full force ... absolutely beautiful. I can't wait to see what this place looks like in the winter. The weather has been holding out nicely for the past couple weeks and makes for some great hiking.

Hope you all have a great weekend.
PISTOL

Good morning all you swabs and land lubbers. Got up at 0 dark thirty and started the coffee. Tip toed around the rain locker and quietly scrapped the fuzz off my face and teeth. Cooked breakfast and sat down for some quiet time looking at the news when my granddaughter taps me gently on the bald head. Got a good morning hug and turned her over to her grandma and off to the work twenty I go. Twelve on and carry on . Hope we are on regular schedule next week. The RCP is fixed, bad motor bearing, and the plant is heating up. Could be on line Sunday night.

I'm up.....
Big day today, gotta change oil in the truck and scrape the bugs off. And just might clean the garage.
Oh ya, a trip to Tractor Supply Co. to see if they have the stuff I need for my home made vent kit.
