My all done flower bed in the front

Mine is not picturesque. However I did manage to take down 3 or 4 more pots today.
I figured out why I have been putting it off.
I am so chewed up with mosquitos I am going to have to shower to feel normal again.
This is why I used to dislike dove hunting season to start on Labor Day weekend. But I loved the dove. We could take what the fellow posters did not want and have over hundred on skewers for my dad's annual Peanut Boil. Great party. Some years we'd put a pig ol' venison ham on the rotisiarie. Both dove and venison were injected with the famous Mom Jack Bob Dad sauce. Quite the [fun] battle the year they invented that stuff. I still use it today. I was 13 into beer and while they were distracted, joined the party. I also learned that if I stopped by and dropped an ice cube in my Mom's short glass with brown liquor she would think it was the wrong color and add more booze. The next day was the only time I ever remember mother with a hang over.
This thread brings back some really good memories.

Woo - day's going by fast
Why does Saturday always have to be so fleeting?
What's everyone else doing?

I am struggling to lose some weight. I had already eaten and wasnt hungry.... that is the struggle

You're crushing it!! AND knowing to check in before eating to see if you're actually hungry or not? That's a big one. Hard to find something else when you know you're not hungry but want to eat.

I’ve been trying to lose weight too. I’ve been fairly good at portion control. But the real reason I gained weight occurred after I got laid off. When I worked I walked a lot. Now I get no real exorcise. I find it simple to find reasons not to walk.

A drop in activity without a change in eating habits will bite you in the rearend every time.
New Challenge: Find a reason to walk - 5 min at a time

@likes2watchU
Here's lookin at you babe!

Cheers, mate!! Oh, how I miss a good Black and Tan!!

How far is 10k steps? 7 or 8 miles? Or how long is a 10k step walk? Maybe if I set a timer for half the time I can just walk away. Then reset the timer and see if I can get back home before it goes off again.

There's the ticket - create challenges or make it a game!

My all done flower bed in the front

That's a mighty sharp looking bed, Miss K

That's a damned fine lookin' flower bed.
I cleaned my slutter-gutters while I was high at home.

I agree with your first statement
Confused about the second.
Question: Why the AF would someone clean out their gutters, which I'm assuming involves getting up on a ladder, while they are high?
Deathwish? High Logic (cousing to Beer Logic)? Typo?
Please tell me that's a typo or that you have a ladder-free technique

Sorry I was missing everyone. PC, and Tablet problems. Got it fixed today, so I'm back....

Welcome back, Rj!!
I was just lamenting being my own IT Support.
Looks like we are both crushing it today!!
You're back and I've (finally) got my scanner connected and working with the new Windows 11 Desktop at home. Win Column for us both

I wish I could find you a good video I saw of a "blowout!"
Once control is lost and thousands of feet of drill pipe are blown out of the hole, erosion happens RAPIDLY, blowing rocks the size of softballs into the sky, which come raining back down.

Believe me, 16,000+ PSI, coming out of a 6-8 inch hole, sounds as if the hounds of hell have been turned loose. I've been there and it automatically kicks one into "fight or flight mode"... with nowhere to go.

OMG! I'd be wanting to get the hell out of there!

*picks up gauntlet*

Are we about to have a grouch-off?

 

[Lilianna23]

Maybe they can sell Wilson to the Ravings.

Wilson was great with the Seahawks. I think he's past his sell-by date now.

When one is up a ladder, one is high - er than one was before. Wat calls being up a ladder "getting high." It's the only high Wat does. While he was high - up on the roof - he cleaned the slutter-gutters.

My roof is low pitched, so it's not too scary.


It's also the only time I had the ladder dump me.


I broke my old phone in the landing . . . .

See freaking scary.....

It isnt the heights it is the fear of falling from the height that freaks me out
