Happy Saturday from Out West. Some of the household critters were damned happy to see me. The youngest tortie decided that I needed to be inspected and supervised, so that's been going on since 0300. The boy Lab came down to check on me several times, too. The horse was an apple monster, pushy and everything. Good thing he stays outside. The girl Lab helped me finish breakfast, but then she sits at my feet whenever I'm at the table and she's inside. And HellaTstorm blew through, too. It's soggy here and all the bodies of water are very full.


Hope to be here for Azalea Season of '25 . . . .
Sounds like a house full of love! I'm glad you're having a good weekend, Wat! 🥰
 
Good morning WT. It seems you already had a busy morning with your critters. Thunderstorms forecast here a little later and then the big ones tomorrow evening. Oh well, it is spring. Going out to have brunch with my girlfriend arouund 9 am. In the meantime, going for a walk with the old dog soon. I am going to be low key today.
How are you feeling, B2?
 
Good morning all. I am mobile but not moving fast. My butt muscle hurts!!! I think it is going to be a couch day! Sitting at a diner for breakfast and it hurts to sit!
I am going to start a sign up sheet. So all you lovely ladies can get in line to rub the sore muscle. Lol
Awww! Your poor butt! Walking is probably better than sitting. Have you tried some stretching? Bend over and push out towards your sore side. Breathe through any pain and try not to tense up. It should feel like a good kind of hurt.
 
Morning all.

On the run. Two lawns to mow today. The big ones.

My push mower that I I’ve had for 14 years died yesterday. Thing doesn’t owe me a cent. Four lawns x 30 mows a year x 14 years = 1680 Lawn mowings. I use my tractor for the big lawns but that thing was a runner. Sorry to see it go. I’m not gonna get rid of it, but I’ll see what’s up with it later this year when lawn mowing season is over.

I’m gonna get a new one today.

I like equipment that just goes and goes.

Cleaning up the yard and farm today. Company tomorrow. See my mom on Monday.

Try to actually get a little downtime in this weekend.
You're always so busy, W! I bet you will be able to fix your little mower that can!
 
I’m with ya on good quality equipment. My lawn tractor and farm tractor just keep going. (Knock on steel)

My stihl chainsaws? Always start. Blower and whacker? Always start.

I learned the hard way several years ago that if you don’t run the equipment every so often, the carbs get all gunked up w ethanol stuff. So I start all my power equipment once a month and let it run for 10 minutes or so. Even in July, I start the snowblower.

When ya need it ya can’t be fucking around.

Have a happy and safe Memorial Day weekend everyone!! Don’t forget the spirit of Memorial Day… those who have given their lives for this nation…
I thank you for your service, W!💞 Both of my parents were Veterans.
 
Stihl!!! Nothing more needs be said.


The guy messaged back about the old Allis-Chalmers. Maybe thew landlady can go check it out. More the seller than the tractor.


Getting ready to (fixin' ta) load up and get on the road. All day long. Let's hope all the idiots got their driving in yesterday.
They get replaced with other idiots! 🙄🙄 Be safe driving, Wat! ❤️
 
I care, it's coming here later today...
We are expecting the same. They had it while I was south and I had it in Oxford. Standing fishing in a sheet of water. Thank God for goretex! There are times for getting wet and that was not one of them.

Land has only just started to dry after the winter and we don’t need this right now. The hay won’t be taken off the back field this week from what I can see
