    Rant alert.

    Dear Co-Workers,

    Do your f'n job. Just do it. I shouldn't have to ask you to do it, or tell you how to do it...you should just do it. Please stop being incompetent. Please stop being lazy. Please do your job, even at a mediocre level of performance, on your own initiative.

    Have a day,
    -lukem

    Rant over.

    All right. Dump run completed. Visit, and eat a couple donuts, with Dad completed. Cut and moved some Ash firewood. Lunch time. We will get back at the firewood after we eat.

    A bit more firewood cut and brought back. Break time (it be hot out dere)! And then I need to go finish cutting the grass at camp. Then a tasty fruit and yogurt Smoothie for dinner. Then I have to bring 2 of the kids to soccer practice from 6-7:30. I will get a good bike ride in while they are practicing. A pretty full day for it being a day off.

    :picard:We put new tires on the wife's Pilot last year. Maybe have 10,000 miles on them. Just found out she caught a big nail in a place where they do not want to put a plug. Need a new tire, and of course we don't want to put just one new one on that axle. So we need two.

    Caffeine going down. Man, I could have stayed in bed a while longer today. I must have rode about 9-10 miles on the bike while the kids had soccer practice last night. On top of the work we did around the house I tired myself out. :thumbs: Just what I needed though. Burn some of that Pizza off I ate yesterday. :DAlmost time to go out and split some more wood.

    With only 10k miles on it I would have chanced it. Plus if she drives like my wife she is probably airborne most of the time!:D

    Pretty gooder day yesterday.
    Did about half the lawn (that's funny.....calling it lawn), mowed the field down again in anticipation of processing some firewood.
    Got the rest of the branches cleared off the far side of the "driveway" that were left from the big Spruce takedown of '14.
    Grilled some chicken breast for deener and had a BIG salad with.
    Got all the fixins out for punkin pie today before it gets too warm. We'll see if that happens.
    Rain today, then I've got plans to do a little cutting...........:dex:

    Shop time in a little bit after FIL wakes up. Still trying to get my chopsaw rolling cart finished........shouldn't this be done by now? Jeesh
    Gonna' build some brackets to get a bunch of rough Oak off the floor out there that's taking up WAY too much floorspace.
    Why is it that the amount of energy needed for a plan is directly dis/un/non-proportional to the amount I actually have?

    You might be right. My legs give out half way through any project. Trying to keep all this weight moving is tiring.:picard:
