Good sleep tonight, B2! You'll need all your strength to hunt the elusive Lilianna!

It begins tomorrow

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Have to say I love my entailing alliance...

I'm glad you have her.


I'm glad mine are cats.

 

[Wonderer67]

Oh, and Wat can be a touch short on patience as well.


I have a broken piece of op rod spring to remove from the 80YO op rod, and I need not to fuck it up. The book doesn't have much detail on how to do it. Good news is, the spring is broken, so it's a casualty already. It's the rod Wat needs to be good to.

I will bet you that you can find a YouTube video…

Be careful of that springing action!!!

Breakfast time. Enjoy everyone!

I know it’s not Sunday, but I’m craving pancakes, and lots of coffee of courses. ️

 

[B2fromA2looking4U]

That's pretty chilly, B2! Still cold this morning?

Good morning . It’s in the upper 50s going to 80F. Going to visit my sister. 2 hours up and then back. Then back, relax and keep an eye out for the way ward Lilli.

 

[B2fromA2looking4U]

Awesome! How was it? I'd love to see him!

Fantastic

 

[B2fromA2looking4U]

It's 0213 and it looks like I have successfully eluded both B2 and G! I'm off to bed! Have a wonderful Wednesday, everyone!

Hhmm you did.

Another busy day planned in corporate Zombieland.

730 meeting, so I’m up a little earlier than normal. Bad dreams around 4 didn’t help. Working thru it with a workout (and catching up on lit… Jesus this thread moves at the speed of light)

Mowing the front lawn tonight after dinner.

Going to get warmer, and we’re planning our annual visit to the nude beach in New Jersey next week.

God how I love Mrs. Wonderer!! Over the weekend I got a flat tire on my tractor. I was going to fix it this coming weekend, it’s an old-school tubed tire. It could be an original tire , but I just hate taking the tire off the bead, removing the innertube, looking for and sanding any sharp rust spots on the rim… putting on the new innertube and aligning it just right, getting the tractor tire back on the bead… it’s a fucking process…

I am not known for my patience!!

Mrs wonderer, removed the tire yesterday, took it down to a local tractor place. Saved me a couple of hours of swearing and cussing. All for only $60.

I’ll take that deal any day of the week!! She’s a fuckin keeper treasure!!!

She is a keeper

You're right!!! Fortunately, this isn't the dangerous spring. That one lives inside the bolt assembly, and they make a tool to hold it while you disassemble it. I bought the tool. The bolt assembly is soaking, but I likely want to take it apart and do it up right. Good news is, All of this is small stuff so I'm wearing my dollar store readers to do it. I hate safety glasses, and glasses in general, as a rule, but fine work forces me to wear these.


Somewhere, somebody must make safety glasses that don't suck nationwide.

To everyone, Good ……..(add your own greeting according to time zone)

It’s a day at the computer for me and recovery from 6 hours driving yesterday. Great day celebrating my mums 89 birthday. Then after lunch I offer to take her for a walk around the block with my brother. Get out of the door and she takes us on a 2 1/2 mile hike into the country and back home! Some woman who complains only that she is a little slow

Aww.... your mom is awesome!!!

 

[B2fromA2looking4U]

Good morning all. Going on cup 2 and then walk the old dog. Checking in to see if my son is going with me to see my sister and brother in law. My brother in law has stage 5 kidney diseases. I love that big guy. He would love all the farm and tractor talk.

 

[Missk_2022]

I saw one of those on v shows where someone made a home out of an old silo.

It was cool.

I’m a big fan of repurposing things rather than building new.

I love these. Would totally live in one

Its the little things isnt it. Who needs bs flowers and candy....this is romance

 

[Greylag]

Aww.... your mom is awesome!!!

She is ...independent as hell. Apart from being helped across a road as she is almost blind she is an amazing independent woman. Even shooooed me out of the kitchen for trying to make a cup of my pissy tea! Told me she was perfectly capable of doing it herself!

YES MUM

 

[Wat_Tyler]

The landlady bought a chicken coop and had it delivered last week. Damned if she didn't get some chickens yesterday.


This pack of thugs needs a least a couple of horses:

I hope you got good sleep!

I did thanks lili

We used to call it “junk” and only used it when we couldn’t afford the new stuff. Had my grandmothers 1950 washing machine when we married in 1979. Just stuck a 6” nail in the back to tension the drive belt. Never fitted the top mangle that would have had your hand through it at the same time as the clothes! Now that would be super cool.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Okay, so I went back and looked at the ad for the position I have the phone interview for this morning. Turns out, it's not far from the house and it's in the little niche sector of the business that I've been working in since the aughts. All of a sudden, my attitude and outlook have perked up. Yeah, if they come through with something, this could be a concept we could get behind.


So we'll see . . . .

Let’s hope you don’t get a case of “Garand thumb”

I hate to admit I’ve never fired my Garand. I’m actually not even sure if it’s 7.62x51 or 30-06. It’s a 1954, Baretta made one, and it was just around that time they were standardizing nato ammo.

Anywayzzzzz. Back to your regular programming.

U gotta be careful with the Garand; we shot them at funerals for vets.

Insh'Allah, you know? I can only present myself best I know how.
