    Awesome man.

    By the way I'm off to help at a pancake breakfast at our legion too...except I just help by eating the pancakes. :)

    There sure are a lot of pancake feeds around here though this is the only one today (within 1/2 hour anyway).

    14f here this a.m. and clear. Supposed to get clobbered with snow, ice pellets and freezing rain over night tonight into tomorrow. Got the call last night that they cleared the foot and a half of snow off the ranges yesterday so today will be the first day of trapshooting for the 2016 season. Woo Hoo.......can't wait to pound some holes in the ozone layer.............. Everybody have a great and safe day............

    Thanks! Our second child. A boy.

    The get-together is nearly over now. Stressful for me, but I think the family had a nice time.

    The kid is taking it very cool though. So that's excellent :)

    I'm having a deck put up this coming week. Today will be all about firing up the wheelbarrow and moving piles around to make room.

    Whoo - Hoo Canada wins the Men's World Curling championship. good start to the day. First few ends looked like they were going to lose it but they put it together and won.

    After that excitement, it is back to normal Sunday activities. I hope everyone has a good one today.

    Took it easy this morning until 11. Cooked the bacon then cleaned everything up and let the wife cook the Omelettes with cheese, onions, and green peppers. Drew the littlest one a nice, hot bath in Mom's tub after breakfast and her Mom watched her while she read a book.

    Then I went to work. Taking out all the dead Pine, and the live Ash of all size. Break time now. Getting even more firewood down now with this thinning project for the horse play ground.

    Exhausted! Worked all afternoon with the CS680. Almost done with the last section behind the house. Once finish I will have a chitload of stuff to move. Some of it firewood, most of it brush or too far gone wood which will be for outdoor burn material. Now, why did I get rid of that tractor and grapple. :picard::rofl: :lol: Oh, that's right. Financial down sizing. :rolleyes: Oh well. Now I need to see if I can figure out how to get my neighbor to build me a grapple to work with his quick attach system. It will be a wrecking machine!:dex:

    I had to limit myself to two pieces of that Baklava. That stuff is so good it could become very addicting. Wife's son and daughter in-law sent it to us. Trying to watch what I eat. :headbang:

    Right where I want to be.
    I watch everything I eat. It's part of the experience. :D
    We've got a little Baklava shop right here in our little one blinker burg. I made a batch a couple years ago that came out very well, but I had to eat it all myself.
    Oh, the sacrifices I make...............:rofl: :lol:

    It was all about spending time with my mom today. Started at the pancake breakfast, then afterwards we went to her house and yacked with one of my cousins. Next we headed to an auction a few miles away where we looked and talked to friends, then we grabbed a tavern (loose meat sandwich for non NW Iowans) at the drive in, then hit the ice cream parlor.

    A good day...but I need a nap now. :)

    office Excel driving me crazy right now. I am trying to print a spreadsheet with gridlines on it. Some of the lines print - others do not. It is not consistent which will print and which won't. Anyone got any ideas?

    Have not used excel for many years, but back in the day I could blue out the entire spread sheet, choose "no gridlines" (may have needed to go to formatting to uncheck a box?) then save. Go back again and do the same thing and choose "show(print) gridlines" and that used to work.

    Well thanks for the tip. :thumbs: :thumbs: :thumbs: It worked. I got it to print every line. I haven't had that problem in the past but I just up-graded to Excel 2016. Maybe it is a left over glitch.
