What's up today (bullchiting) thread.

I don't have any...

 

I’m sitting in St. George SC doing a 34-hour reset. Still trying to beat this cough/ upper respiratory infection that’s been kicking my azz for a week now.

been from Minneapolis to York PA to Fargo ND to Baltimore MD and now to St. George SC since I left 10 days ago.

lot of history to think about rolling down I95 on the coast.

 

For my tools I use fine steel wool. You could probably use a rag or foam brush too. I keep saturating till it’s done sinking in and leave it on heavy, then come back in about 1/2 hour and wipe any excess off with a cloth rag.
Regular maintenance like this makes any wood handle last a lifetime. I take care of these tools because they just don’t make em like they used to.

 

Do you ever get any "AT HOME" time? Seems to me you are always on the road. I don't know how you do it.

 

I am home for 10-14 day periods and gone 16-19 days.

I’ll be gone extra this month to accommodate the Memorial Day and July 4th holidays. Some of it depends on times of the year. I’ll be off a lot in July and august for work to get done on the truck that’s scheduled. I’ll finish up the tree work and splitting then.

 

Sleep helps…

as does a little bit of lemonade

I deliver this Monday.

 

I would let her keep reading. If the teacher fusses, find out what the list of books the course is going to use and borrow them from the library and let her read them at her own pace. I always had all my English books read as soon as they were given to us. Just before the class, have her reread the chapters that are going to be discussed.

 

Morning folks. Gotta do the carpenter thing for 8 hours then stop and cut mow my wife's uncle's yard. Her cousin used to do it but he passed away a few months ago and i inherited the job. Stay safe out there.

 

Caffeine going in. Looks like the weather will be great today and tomorrow. High of 76 with mostly sun. Good for tractor work on my days off. I have some stumps to pull, wind blown downed trees to process into firewood, and trails to mow. The Kubota L45 is going to get some hours put on it. I just had the hydraulic thumb fixed, engine oil and filter changed, hydraulic oil and filter changed, and an entire grease job completed. Good feeling to have all that done.

 

Hopefully there's no ponds near there...

 

Nope. And i don't think i could get it up the steps on the pool deck.

 

Here's to not trying lol.

 

So nice to hear she loves to read. I see so many kids in school now that reading is considered a chore and texting has mangled their spelling and words to be incomprehensible. Reading really expands their vocabulary as well. I was fortunate that both our girls learned to read very well and they both still enjoy reading for recreation.
