A black tie affair!!!! He looks marvelous.

Later the wife looked up the replacement guts and then later read it is suggested to replace the guts every 2 years.
Don't tell my fan!!!!!

I did a Google search on the parts and I don't even know what model I have since there is nothing on the unit itself other than Ecofan AIRMAX. Apparently there are different Ecofan models:
806 GS
810CA, 812AM
800CA, 802CA, T805B
and they use one of 3 different motors as grouped above

Looking at the fan I don't even know how the motor comes out unless it is from the front after taking the blade off?

What a day. Rain this morning, as predicted. I began chores a little early due to rain and it began a light sprinkle just as I finished. I went to work....nothing to accomplish here, outside. We got almost 3/4"....possible more late tonight, they say.

Stopped at a friend's and they were cutting a few collards to thin the row. Grandkids had helped plant 😁. Now too close but had to wait to thin as they kept going to look at their visits. Won't notice now. So they gave me a couple and they're cooking as I type. Love collards....I had ham broth to season. :drool

About time to go milk, get eggs and close coops. I love my farm life. 🥰

Wahooooo no rain and a crazy’s parade. Dutch is so desensitized that he didn’t care when the screaming was making me cover my ears. I am so proud of him. He is a red carpet rockstar.

Be slow and smart, Bay. Let your body heal...it will be ready to go full tilt in due time. Retraining muscle and ligaments takes time -- more than a couple weeks!! 🤣 :hugs :old how long did you hobble on it first?

I slept in today. Not sure how I convinced my body to do that. Feels pretty good. Getting coffee in a bit. Observing the overcast out there. 57 out and 70 in. Not bad. Sun in a while...maybe it's slow this morn, like me 😁

Everytime I get aggravated with the knees not "working" like I think they should... I have to stop and remind myself that I didn't get to that point in 6 weeks or 6 months... He//, I looked for the "right doctor" for the ankle replacement for 5 LONG years.... knees were getting worse all the time, they just weren't as bad as the ankle at the time... and then they waited another 18 months before I did them...
It is just about a year out since I had the knees done and they are finally starting to feel like something that is not alien. I found myself in the parlor testing the other morning, doing some "partial squats" to get the milk samples because their samplers fit low on their pipeline. Not just bending over as I always did but actually bending the knees and squatting a bit to get the samples.
I am still a little unsteady on them where I need to do alot of balancing... like on the 2 ft wide concrete blocks that encase the silage pit. I worry about losing my balance in cases like that... I am better on the "flat ground" with the dips and things like too tall grass and mole tunnels and uneven spots. Still need to strengthen them for getting up and down on things. And that was both so not like I have help from the "other side" to stabilize me. It will come.... do what you can and push yourself in places you can't get hurt like the feeding the dogs and such.
I have found that I do more "marching type exercises" when I am walking to get them to work independently ; and to not let myself shuffle along to keep them close to the ground which is more stable feeling. But you will trip over things if you shuffle along walking in the fields and such.
It will come.... you are as impatient as I am/was because even hurting before, we could do "more" than what we can do now. And we do not have a support system to fall back on to do the harder things that just have to get done.

I think I’m easing into things. Therapist thinks I’m on warp speed. I’m not picking up feed bags. I filled metal cans right before surgery . I can go get feed when I need it, but don’t worry, I won’t unload it.
