T.G.I.F.

Good Morning,

Thanks for putting the new pot on RT, Chief is probably out dragging his new buck around somewhere.

Only 5 fires in So Cal this morning, that’s good. The biggest one is out near Santa Paula, beautiful area!

I’ve started working on Chris’ old room, bringing in from a high school kid’s room to a guest room. Anyway it still had the popcorn ceiling, so first taking that down. Also, has a ceiling fan and track lighting. Took track lighting down, and couldn’t get the ceiling fan lights to work. Had the fan and track lights on seperate wall switches. Was trying to figure out why the fan lights were not working, 3 bulbs all burned out, not likely. Did I do something when I took the track down? Spent a day thinking about what the problem was… loose wire in the fan assy, bad pull chain switch? hmmm. Was going to started detailed trouble shooting yesterday. THEN while having morning coffee, thought, MAYBE the remote control has the lights turned off! Then to find the remote! Finally found one and as soon as I pushed the light button, the lights immediately came on!! Sure glad I thought about that before I spent a day tracing wires and troubleshooting in the attic!

We did not have ANY trick or treaters, not unusual.

The neighbors to our west had their trees trimmed, so our place sticks out like a sore thumb! Looks so strange with all the trees trimmed on both sides! Very bright when the sun comes up. Took most of the day cleaning up the backyard and pool from all the leaves and twigs from the winds and tree trimmings. Told Kay, we

Happy November folks!

Sunny. Hard freeze last night. Birdbath frozen solid. 50 today!

Coffee and newapers so far this am.

Gas company has been combing the alleys last couple of days looking for damaged meters from the tornado. Looks like they are excavating one at my neighbor’s across the alley.

Thanks RT!!

Got down to 20 last night. So as long as the ground top was frozen I loaded up some wood in the Gator and put it on the front porch to burn. Last of the 4 year old stuff.

With the 4.5" of heavy wet snow yesterday now that it is thawing about 1/2 of the leaves have fallen on top of it. No way to sweep and burn that so I guess it will have to lay there all winter and get mulched next spring this year.

Well off to Culver’s for some lunch then get supplies at Krogers.

November already? Winter months won’t go this fast, Esp. since they are all 6 weeks long. Lots of rain and wind here yesterday. Not sure what the kiddies did, we didn’t see any. Looks like a week in the 40s.

S.J.

Happy Friday and All Souls Day…

And I made FIRST PAGE without starting the 'Pot (Thanks, RT!!)

Had a good time last night Jenni was a possessed nun and I was the Exorcist…Knowing the foul weather coming, afterwards, we de-halloweened 2 houses and lucky we did. I was up at 0200 and I was fearing the worst, that the temporary garage was going to fall all over the road runner. At 0600, the garage was still there. Tornadoes, high winds and beating rain. Still very windy, but the Sun is up and hope to warm the office. It was 45F when I left at 0640. Up to 59F later.

Dad had a slight fall and stripped some of the skin off his arms Wednesday night. Mom spent the day carting him around getting the doc to look at it and getting him his meds and bandages. He is very tired as he has not been sleeping well. Hopefully last night was better. Chemo is next week, Iron infusion was Wednesday.

Halloween Party tonight at the Tavern downtown. Should be fun.

Got home late last night thanks to Wifey running her mouth at her sister’s. Then drove home through tornado warning [didn’t know]. No damage anywhere. Think all up high but radar showing. Not that much rain either.

Sunny and chilly. Out early this AM. Back to change to go to pastor’s retirement thingy. Hunt tomorrow afternoon as not driving late tonight to farms

Thanks RT.

Mornin’ boys. Crisp air and 27 degrees along the Patterson Creek cut-off. Fetched grandson in Fredrick last night, as he is with us for the weekend. The boy chatted the whole way back. Stopped by middle princess’s house for some candy, then went home and hugged youngest princess, who came home for the weekend as well. Life is good.

The sale of the yatchett is realy looking promissing, as potential buyer and I will meet this week on-board. Gonna take a hit on the value, but it will be more than recouped without marina fees in the next couple years.

anj[}:)] I smell role-playing…

Hello there,

Posted last night thinking the place was deserted all day. Realized this morning there was a new POT.

Hello there,

not much goin on here lately. Everybody more to Facebook? ?

Scratched around the basement trying to come up with a spreading tool to work on my 259E. Nothing yet.

Studied my lathe some too. No easy solution. I think I’m going to put it back together. Leave a bit of slop between the carriage and bed and run it. Pap had it adjusted so tight it took a fair amount of effort to crank it. If the gear strips again I’ll come up with a way to lower the rack.

Trick or Treating is rescheduled to tomorrow evening here. Last evening was hard rain and high winds.

Best go before I crash.

Morning. Chilly start. High in the lower 60’s. Will wear long sleeves to hunt this afternoon.

SonIL shot 9 pointer yesterday. Glad he did. Stand I will probably hunt today. If deer had come back today, I would have had to shoot him. One a year is usually my limit. Going now to watch and enjoy. If a bigger one comes, will shoot it. Photo doesn’t show antlers well.

Later

Sat. 86 Sun. 84 Mon.81

My best friend at church he is 82 and seems to have more vigor than me, I’m 76. His wife died a year ago and he always said he would like to remarry, he dosn’t like living alone. He has been going with a lady at church for awhile and they went to Vegas and got married. Between the two of them they are quite wealthy.

Morning folks!

Sunny, 45,at the moment, 67 today. Very pleasant weather!

Somehow missed yesterday. Did not really do anything except deal with ins adjuster in the am, watched John Wayne in the Searchers in the afternoon, and dinner out with neighbors in the evening.

Chilly and sunny. Back from Church and lunch [fried chicken gizzards].

Have a great week ahead.

Good evening,WOW pitch black at 5:30pm :frowning:

I spent 4 hours trying to burn wet leaves but did do well. Got most of the yard done and what was to wet to sweep I blew into the woods with the leaf blower. Leaves are about 80% down now.

We made it to 54 today but the rest of the week is in the crapper so I had to get it done today. Left over chili tonight. Sandra has doctor stuff all next week. At least we got the Okay from BCBS for the go ahead of the hip replacement on the 4th of December. Lots of loops to jump through first.

Good Evening from beautiful 42°F Southern Ohio,

We finished putting the Sealer on the house yesterday afternoon. I am very pleased with the way it looks. The manufacturer says it is good for 10 years, so we’ll see.

Hello there,

Very few Trick or Treaters last evening.

A good day at the train show.Got to see some old friends. A few new dealers, and several familiar faces missing. Part of the discussion today is the lack of new blood.

I did get a really good bargain,

Set 310

only $40.00 for a Gilbert HO set #310 from 1955 and a seperate sale transformer. The track is Gilbert from the 60s Pikemaster era.

After the show Mrs and I did some Christmas Shopping, had a late lunch and stopped to see the progress on the addition to Daughters house SIL is building then homemade pitza.

Great news, daughter did tell us yesterday that patholgy showed no cancer in her ovaries.

Bed is calling

Prayers for those in need

Banks - great news re your daughter! Prayers!

Final plans for daughter’s wedding next Sun are all falling into place.

Doc appt in am for my hand. Getting better but a couple issues to discuss.

Watched the NASCAR race today. Kinda boring…noted the stands were pretty sparse…the speedway here in Ft Worth is a BIG place.

Happy Monday - hate this time change B$…

Jenni won 50 clams for Scariest costume. Fife - yeah, that would be accurate…lol!! We didn’t get to bed until 3 AM.

Saturday was an “off” day, Saturday night helped my sister and BIL with the Leukemia and Lymphoma Light the Night walk. My brother and SIL and my 2 nieces were there as well.
Went to bed by 10, needed the sleep with the extra hour.

Yesterday was the World’s Largest Rolling Toy Run in Philadelphia for Toys for Tots. Yes, this was a motorcycle event, we obviously took the Road Star. When we left at 0900, it was 45F and we got to Philadelphia at 1005. We did a little of the “Flea Market” and bought some items, played some games at Dave and Buster’s - well it was right there, after all…saddled up ran the 10 miles through Philadelphia. Stayed for a bit at the after party at the Casino, ran over to Walnut Street to visit my daughter at work, then ran home by 445…and it was getting dark…By the time I had cleaned up and put everything away, it was 8 and started laundry, left the last load in the drier by 9. 54F when we arrived home. Yep, it was cold, but it was for the kids, so we went and had a GREAT time!!

Afternoon. Cooler weather.

Had district state garden club meeting this AM. Only guy there. District director kept saying “you ladies”. They are not use to having men present. Made a lot of new friends.

Town Board tonight with a big agenda. Almost finished. Will be glad. Tired of this stuff.

Later.

Evening all!

Sunny and 75 today. Very nice. Big front on the way mid-week.

Found a nail in RR tire on the Tahoe after parking at the doc’s office this morning. Stopped at Discount Tire (where I bought them) - they were backed up, so made an appt for in the morning. Not leaking air, so fingers crossed.

Doc said hand/knuckle/finger healing normally, but it will be several weeks before it returns to normal. No need for any further followup appts unless something unusual appears.

Spent time this afternoon cleaning/sorting/tossing trash in my office/ work area.
