    The journey into the abyss of no return

    I lead an eccentric life and not by choice or I don't think so 🧐 Met the people building the house across the prairie that I have been racing against inadvertently. Up on the house building today watching neighbors going by that lost a cow out here (yes a cow got loose from my neighbors at the...

    Coffee anyone ?

    Yes it is and I just need to get a hold of a particular client to get permission to set a camera up watching the mailbox. Mailbox is 3 miles up the road or a quarter of a mile for her or less.

    Coffee anyone ?

    After my last move 7 years ago, nope never again. If we do it will be up the road as in the next town or county over. Arsehose neighbor stole a piece of our mail recently which I shouldn't be surprised as we avoid mailing out our bills cause we knew this would happen. As the saying goes, walk a...

    The journey into the abyss of no return

    Well you see.... According to the unofficial bid that was agreed upon, it only covers drying it in. So that's upon the customer to do. With that said, he is trying to trade a backhoe he bought for my labor/skills on finishing the house after drying it in and wants a comprehensive list of what I...

    The journey into the abyss of no return

    My tool chest has plug bars installed on them and that's what it is. The one where I turn wrenches at. I can help them when they get in a bind, but who is going to be there when I get in a bind. I have too many things to do and need my service bed outfitted.

    Coffee anyone ?

    Pulled my tool box out from where I wrench at yesterday, too much going on and winter is about to hit full force next week. Mid 50's today, taking the plunge to staying below freezing till May of next year by Monday next week. Time to hunker down.

    Coffee anyone ?

    I know it isn't Starlink satellites as I have seen those before and these didn't move. Cluster of about 20 something lights lined up at an angle in the northwestern sky not moving, never moved as I was driving through Glendive, MT last night. Stayed there 15 minutes and slowly faded away.

    The journey into the abyss of no return

    Funny thing is it was sunk up to the axles in mud it had been sitting so long, no tail lights worked and two tires on the side are split as in tread coming off from weathering. Yanked it out of the mud and didn't stop till I got home. Was told little weather checking on the tires, not split...

    Coffee anyone ?

    Layers. I run around with T shirt, long sleeve T shirt and light sweater from 50°F down to 30's, once it hits below 30's I put thermals on. Around the 10's when I start putting jacket on and when it hits sub zero is when a balaclava and other trimmings go on. When it gets around -30°F is when I...

    The journey into the abyss of no return

    I called it on the backhoe exchange of him wanting me to finish the house beyond drying it in. Though I don't know if I want to bite after what I have been put through of indecisiveness, ridiculed daily and disrespected.

    Thanks! No one does as the trend is. So sad to see so much go to waste, for so little, unappreciated, but everything comes with a price.
