Good morning! Are you up yet? What's your plans for today?

[avator]

Yep, I'm up. Got coffee and getting ready to head out to the shop.

[Lt. Dan]

Up at 5am, no plans for today, just gonna avoid the heat I suppose. Forecast is 101° today with heat index approaching 108°.

Good Morning, I am up, I plan on surviving today, hopefully to feel better and lose the congestion.
I am drinking my coffee and am going to try to ignore being sick and format correct some more converted PDF books. I am not sure how that will go because I don't really feel like doing it. I know I am not going to expend much energy today though.

Ordered 3 mower spindles for under $70. A old one has lasted 5 years and the other two lasted 10 years so that ain't bad. Only 1 of the 10yr old spindles sounds bad right now but I'll replace all of them the same time this go around. Got some mowing done at my place yesterday and I'll get my mother's place mowed today then more mowing at my place later. I need to kill some poison ivy at my mothers place too.

Back to the mine today.  Picking C up from pops on the way home today.  It’s like I never left this place.

Good morning, all quiet on the home front. Waiting on a shipment to show up. Finish getting the grass cut. Some of the lure making molds came in yesterday so that will be an indoor project. Put new line on fishing reels. Work on a boat ladder that I can store under the seat. Clean up the boat stuff.

Back to work after a four day hiatus.  I’ve got Laryngitis.  That’s a career issue for a tour guide.  So I’m in the ranger station for the next two days.  That’s going to be challenging too!

[Rabbit\Squirrel Killer]

Good morning, day three, I slept pretty well but still feel a bit sick. I will take it easy today too.

 I spent a couple of hours yesterday figuring out why a pdf converted to a .docx file had some text that would hide when I reformatted it to look the same as the pdf. It turned out to be a "footnote section" that was created during the conversion. The whole section would disappear and reappear with a single deleted or inserted space.  I had to delete the erroneous "footnote" section and type the missing text to solve the issue and make it as the pdf looked.

Back to the mine today.  Picking C up from pops on the way home today.  It’s like I never left this place.

So I’m at work and Mrs. P texts and says one of the boys has gotten his truck stuck on the edge of a drop off way out in Timbuktu.  Then I get a text later that C has been stung by a wasp at pops and has reacted with hives all over his bod and that they, pops and C, were going to the fire station around the corner. 

I leave work and go to pops to pick up C (and another trailer load of cleanup).  He looks like a pepperoni pizza with hives all over so we get him some antihistamine since the FD didn’t have any.  He feels fine but looks terrible.  M has been stranded all day so far while he waits for a family friend to get off work to go do an off-road recovery. 

In the meantime life continues on.  M gets home finally around 2300.  C is not feeling well through the night. It took me hours to fall into restless sleep.  I finally doze off then wake up around 0315 before the alarm is going to go off.  I reset an alarm to 0530 and decide that I’ll just be late getting into work.  I fall asleep around 0400 into goos sleep for an hour.  I wake up and my mind is spinning.  I decide to bag I for the day and take it off. 

C still isn’t feeling well this AM but he looks normal again.  Michele’s mom is coming over today and they have some running to do.  I plan on taking the trailer to the dump along with two mattresses.  I hope to get a haircut and buy two mattresses to replace the dumped ones.  I’m expecting an air rifle delivery today so there’s that.  We need to get started on staining the covered storage that we put up last year.  I guess with yesterdays events and all that needs to get taken care of it was meant that I be here today and take care of some of it.  I’ll be back to a marathon work shift tomorrow so work is never ending….

I have 4 more books of the set of 12 to convert, and I will also be keeping an eye out for FedEx with my Crosman M4-177 .177 Pellet / BB Pneumatic Pump Air Rifle that is out for delivery today.

[Madd Hatter]

Nothing more than run into town and pickup the mail and fill some jugs with filtered water for me and the dogs. Was up 3 times last night running to the bathroom. Our 14 year old German shepherd woke me up twice when she got stuck under the bed and crapped her self. Needless to say I'm very tired today.☹️

[Sqrl Klr]

Brett and Rob I hate days like that. Well I'm not glad other people have bad days too, but I'm glad at least I'm not the only one. Brett I hope someone finds that wasp nest and shows their appreciation for ruining anyone's day. Today I saw a baby one hunting on the ground so I stomped it. One less bastage around to tag me. Kill em all let God sort em out is how I feel about them after blowing a tendon in my leg while being swarmed by them and having to spend a month home in a wheelchair during the summer which is the busiest time of year for me.

[avator]

Morning... yeah, I'm up.
Been sipping coffee, watching the morning news and surfing for a couple hours. Boss came out with me but shes been laying on the floor and snoring.
I don't have a real plan for the day yet but I'm sure I'll find something to get in to. I could do oil changes on the 4 wheelers.
Rain showers are possible but not 100% today.

[Lt. Dan]

Good morning gang. Up at 0349, yeah not necessarily on purpose. I had to make a nature call and decided to stay up. I've had breakfast (grilled ham and cheese sandwich, brewing more coffee, watching the morning news now.
Weather forecast calling for an EXTREME HEAT ADVISORY for today they are saying  feels like temperatures of 105-115°. I went out at daybreak to water the plants on the patio and in about 10 minutes was sweating.

I haven't mowed for 3 weeks so I really need to get going on that.   We need a bunch of large oak trees taken down.  A few years ago I'd have done it myself but you know, age is slowin' me down.   They are pretty close to the house and some are leaning the wrong way so I gotta mark them and get a tree company in here.  It's gonna require a crane and a climber.   A friend is bringing over  a PB with new optics that he'd like to sight in.   Later on this afternoon, there's a good chance that I'll head over to the gun club and do some shooting. 

[Rabbit\Squirrel Killer]

Good morning I am feeling almost well this morning. I didn't do anything productive yesterday. My Crosman M4 .177 showed up and I did take 5 shots with it.

 I am going to take it easy today too but, I will probably continue with the pdf book set conversion to .docx and editing/formatting of .docx files. I have 8 books-3,788 pages done, just 4 books-1,816 more pages to proof read/edit/format to complete the set.

[Blowpipe Sam]

Mornin y’all.  Someone didn’t do their job at work and now I’ve got to clean up the mess.  About a week back I had a drunk trespassed from the park.  It was the end of my shift so I handed off the responsibility for writing the report to a novice ranger who was working the late shift.  He didn’t do it. Well that report has to be written And I am delegated since I’m the most “responsible” ranger.

If I’m the most responsible ranger these people are in deep doo doo.

[Madd Hatter]

I've got to go get a load of water today. It's "suppose" to rain tomorrow and Sunday and my storage tanks are around a 1000 gallons down. Need to go into town and pay for the PO box anyway so might as well make 1 trip for 2 things.
