What's up today (bullchiting) thread.

I thought for sure today was Saturday when I woke up.

 

It is Saturday for me. Actually took a vacation day from my main job (still have to work tonight). Windows and doors open to bring in the cool morning air before the major heat up the next couple of days.

 

Rant alert.... I posted here somewhere the story of my wife wanting pool in front yard.. wasn't completely flat.. tree .. etc etc.. saturday.. septic had water coming above ground.. so I had week off to get things finished and I dug up lines to backwash.. xxxitty job. lines are filled with stone!!! and they end in middle of pool.. been high 80s for 3 days and I get to take pool down daughter not happy.. me not happy... I told her to put it where previous owners had it!


No pics too tired after shoveling rock to go buy camera... leech lines are completely filled with stone why it took 5 years to find... and pool 5 years to crush...

I love my wife..
I love my wife..

don't lose temper... repeat above.. wish Kubota had a digging arm...

 

This really needs a big DISLIKE button. Every time I want to get pizzed over somethin like this I think of the guy driving a big garbage truck who I watched dump an entire big dumpster full of old rotten fish (restaurant) all over the cab of the truck because the main door didn't open up. It was 83 degrees. He was hammered with the flood of it down on his back as he bailed out of the cab... I was in a bucket, 40 feet up over him... birdseye view... wasn't pretty.

Hang in there... CBV...

 

hanging tough, let's see.. 600 feet of retaining wall. 12 yards sand, underground gfi power supply.. pool deck disassemble pool.. dig up rest of front yard replace d box and crushed lines when I find them... put it all back together.. finish it for mower. ... hey I might of lied ... probably did finish pool.... oh wait no not finished wrong spot really I need a drink and could be a lot worse.. I married right one

Oh and you can't rent excavator this week all out

 

Shoulda called Julie before the pool was put up.

 

hec yeah, but requires a state permit.. would require me put in mound system probably 20 grand.. but am allowed to replace broken existing lines.. draining pool now.. sorry wildwest not trying to be cranky...

she wanted pool there so we cut down tree.... removed stump.. leveled with retaining wall brought in sand ... poured concrete circle for legs to sit on because boys do cannonballs and water washed sand away from poles built small deck.. ran underground wire... for a 500 dollar intex easy set pool... all on leech field... ya gotta so I don't

 

who's julie.. went to town no plans on file.. found tank.. took a week. can guarantee tank never been pumped since put in 25 years before that point.. sewer lines run below basement floor.. sepic top of tank 4 feet below grade.. so put on risers and effluent filter probe showed lines went west.. built pool south... never seen 2 90s in sewer line beforee.. but I have now.. of course I own it .... never noticed because lines are filled with stone so they never crushed heck pools been up 6 years... only reason noticed now was first line could not take anymore.. other 2 lines look good... who plants trees in septic field anyway.. oh well .. wouldn't be so bad if I had excavator handy...trying to get buddy bring one home from work tonight..

 

Got muh yard mowed. Iff'n anybody needs some hay, bring the rake and baler on over. Should be dry enough tomorrow afternoon.

 

That sucks CBVT. Nothing like 5-6 projects all needing done at the same time

 

Better day at work today.
Worked with an IT lady that is actually responsive and at least understood the configuration - they finally came around to my initial diagnosis of a bad switch port
Had a good face-face with my new VP, down to earth guy, going to give us some engineering support so I can maybe stop doing 4 jobs and only do 3 for a while

 

Bentley and I are celebrating friday, pre memorial day, pre indy 500, and pre birthday. These beers don't stand a chance

Neither does his ball.

Take a moment to remember those that have kept us free this weekend peeps.

 

Watched Monaco Grand Prix qualifying, dogs out for a drive and getting ready for a graduation party. We got a shot of rain last night and we're soaked again. Thankfully nothing like Chvymn99 got though.
