It's running. I'll need to buy better circulators for heating season, but at least I won't have to burn oil for hot water.

Oil!? Bend over! This year is going to be very painful!
P.S. I could have use another exclamation mark or two.

People bitching about diesel prices because they drive a diesel truck but when it hits people just living their lives?! Well, maybe the powers that be will listen. ( I have my doubts but if they don’t they may live to regret it )

It's $4-5 a day just for domestic hot water, and I don't use much.

A bit more work done on the tree house. She's asking for a higher tower, meaning a floor at 12'. It's 12'x12'x12'.
Dahlia did some marking of the position of some braces, then helped align them flush to the floor joists, while I screwed them in, while working below the deck.
Going to put in some more floor boards, now.

Too wet for most of what needed done this a.m. so worked only an hour.
Course will be closed until at least noon if not all day.
Stopped in on the way home & had breakfast & some good conversation with the "morning gang" .

Sorting old paperwork- keeping the shredder going with old tax and bank statements. Came across the receipt for my Lewis Winch. Look at that - 2nd day air shipping was just $40 !!!

I prefer burning mine as opposed to shredding. Sort of ceremonial.

Lots and lots of lumber to sticker stack.

Cut hay today. Lift arm shaft came loose on the JD2640 because of a 50 cent clip. Dumped all the hydraulic fluid. Luckily it only holds 10 gallons of the good stuff.

Rain day. I made slings, opened a road due to storm damage, looked at a big job five removals three of them are over the house and deck and the other two are near big wires, and I want to kill some customers. They get all pissy when I tell them I am three weeks out and then they push the job off three more weeks. WTF!

Good to see you fellas. With the saws and the farm, time is at a premium.

The shaft could go side to side? Fun job lowering housing back down and getting the linkage lined up.
Not a great day. I have a bunch of stuff to do this week, and the boss frigged around all day yesterday, so that was a lost day and put me behind. Had to layout a bunch of road today, and it was more involved than anticipated. Didn't help that we left the office 1.5hr later than we should have(boss again), so we had to work "late" to make up for it. Would have gotten back on time if we left on time. Long and short of it is I flipped out at the job, slammed my radio against a roller, and stomped a plastic box I keep in the truck with misc stuff in it(I was looking for another radio). Just finished grade sheets and sent them off. Hopefully tomorrow will be better...

Got my internet turned back on today. Sat down on the couch a few minutes ago for some YouTubing, and now it looks like my laptop is dead. Can't win some days.

Made it to the Windows login screen, now it's "thinking".

Decent day here. Beautiful temps with just a dash of rain. Dropped off the picnic tables I borrowed for the party and then picked up a hillbilly built golf cart. Thing is basically a hydrostatic lawn mower on a golf cart frame with hydraulic dump. The pump is connected to the opposite side of the engine. Think, not the shaft side but the flywheel side with an adapter kit. Never seen anything like it. Took me all of ten minutes once I got home to break it. What appears to be two fiberglass discs, connected the engine to the driveshaft. Learned not to attempt wheelies. Now I have to figure out what they are called and where to get them. Also pulled the electric stove out of the kitchen and brought a new to me gas one in. Plumbers are coming tomorrow to run the gas line. My problem now is figuring out how to plug this thing in to the same outlet as the fridge. Both have those cords that are at a 90 degree angle. They both can’t go in at the same time. I might just cut the drywall and put in a double box with another outlet. That will most likely happen if I can’t find an outlet that is turned sideways. Found one on Amazon but it’s $50. I have a hard time justifying that cost when a standard one is $8. Oh well. I’ll worry about it tomorrow. Gonna catch up on some reading before going to bed
