What's up today (bullchiting) thread.

I forget sometimes about time zones as well. Almost 1 am here.

 

wildwest I hope he feels better soon.

 

Good morning, a cool 31 and overcast.
I gotta' call from my pal who has a big cottonwood blocking the lane in his woods, looks like I'll be heading that way shortly, too bad it isn't one of the big ash trees he has growing all over the place!!
Cottonwood isn't my favorite firewood but it'll burn better than snowballs, especially during times of mild temps.
I'd rather go pile up on the couch!!
Have a good day and be safe out there. Peace.

 

Gonna change the oil in the splitter and then do some splitting. All you nice people have a great day!

 

Doing the same this weekend Jack..What grade do you use this time of year? And my Briggs doesnt have a drain in it which makes it real fun.

 

The drain on my B&S is on the bottom and its on a 22 ton husky. I'm using 10w30 synthetic. According to B&S 5w3 0 would be better.

 

It's snowing. Wasn't in the forecast. But it's snowing.

 

Currently in a crawl space above a porch insulating.

 

This is how I am spending some vacation time this afternoon, getting this done for parents.

 

My wife just ran out for a birthday cake for my 7 yr old, 7 yr old 4-legged that is.
We have doggy birthday parties here.

 

Is it a surprise party?

 

Hardly, and very funny...

 

I'm behind on my To Do list. Waaaaaay behind. The holidays!!! Just thought I would vent that one out. Ha ha.

 

Guess you guys have pretty much tested the theory huh? Thought of you watchin' the news tonite when they mentioned this. During flu season, I've tried to remember to wash my hands often, and use the disinfecting goop when I'm out in stores, etc. There was a news clip yesterday about a school that had installed large hand washing sinks right near the school's main entrance. They said they had reduced kids gettin' sick by 14% from the year before, and they were just getting started teaching the kids why it was important, so they may reduce kids passin' bugs even more.

 

My brothers and I have been helping my parents close in their back porch. Windows and doors are already in. Walls almost all insulated. Today was crawling up above the ceiling and getting everything insulated really well. That included insulating above the kitchen part that was already closed in and never insulated above the ceiling! No wonder their kitchen was always cold.

I volunteered to go up and lay above the ceiling and under the roof rafters while they fed me the insulation. It's all done now. Along with wires we ran for the new lights. Now they need to

run one wire for the one outlet on the outside wall (small porch), and then they can sheet the walls on the inside. Moving along nicely.

 

Finished the drawer-ganizers and installed some LED strip lights above the wall cabinets. Kitchen list is almost done.
