We were at 62 for a high...winds dropped that temp, plus riding tractor. Yep a heavy jacket felt good. Now it was 87 here sat and sun. Back to 80 thu/Fri. dress for the day . It is what it is. Sunny tho.
I get up and daylight! Then, darkness early. I'm so messed up...feel like I'm "late" all the time. It will pass. Soon, please!
Well, not late this morning! 5 am and had breakfast, just poured 2nd cuppa. . The change over is tough this week. Another low 60, windy day. The storm heading to FL is meandering up to VA in next 48 hrs, they say. Whatever! It'll be some rain mostly. Probably most of day Fri. That's fine.
Waiting on daylight, as seems normal. Then chores, then to work. Getting my body "jet lag" reset from DST. . Won't care by next week. Reset alarms.
I'm working through mowing pastures. A little late but tractor was down. A couple hours each day is getting it done. Some I'll rake and burn for a clean up factor, along with a small pile of trimmed limbs from previous cuts. That's a couple weeks out by time it's all done. And...ta-da!...will get the put off fence install done after that. Needed tractor to pull, etc. Great to have my little buddy back on the job.. Pull out old, cut growth, pull new.YEAH! NEED THE MUSCLE.
I’m glad you got your tractor back! Yes! You need that muscle for so many things. It sure stops you in your tracks when tractor goes down.
On first cup. PT this morning. Took truck in yesterday morning for slow leaking tires on front. Nail in one and both valve stems replaced.
Looked for shoes to wear to church that are not high heels, sandals, or Crocs. Failed. Went to Wally World, got stuff, shower curtain rod for hall bathroom, set of Queen sheets and lay trees pad for sleeper sofa, various other things and a gallon of milk.
Got feed and 3 pallets. Came home, put up stuff and took an hour nap. I’m walking super fantastic but I get tired.
DS has tractor stuff to do today. He has an old Massey with back tires that are peeling apart. Missing chunks. He found a deal on a set of 2018 NEW tires and got them both for $400. I think he’s going to work on those today. He mentioned buying a hay spear for one of his tractors, putting the bucket and bush hog on the other one…… he’ll be busy today.
On the first cup -- need to get out to get things done - rain yesterday was good - 1.24 inches. Then in the wee hours it pounded down with lots of wind. Got .42 inch in an hour. Not so good. Have repairs to make to the ranch road, I'll have to check the ground before I try with the tractor (twisty and fairly steep) I don't want to sliiiiide down to where I need to get. We need that rain - but really that much in less than an hour (according to our weather station) is not the way to get it.
The shredder made it yesterday! I have to get it to the barn - may or may not have time to mess around with it given Mother Nature's new list of chores. It's 49 now going to 58 and white puffy clouds. -- good working weather
I do resets at stores, one chain being Dollar General. So I head in to first store and see a table of stuff marked 90% off.....see a couple boxes of canning rings & lids. Take to counter & check...yes, it's correct! So I bought all three plus a box of just lids that were there. 3x$.40, 1x$.29. . Talked with mgr and she says it was directed by corp to clear. Next store, 15 more boxes! $6.36 with tax.
Couldn't get anyone to check if any jars were discounted...will find out tomorrow. If so, I'm buying!!
Sooooo.....if this chain near you....buy cheaply. They're golden harvest & true living.
