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

[Jshooter71]

Good morning GTA! Happy Saturday! I got up at 0600 and I’m having coffee. I’m glad you all made it through the storm. Plans for today are laundry, dishes, go to the park (they have a ninja playground, even) and get some groceries. Of course, we’ll have lunch at the mall. Might even get a nap in after the grocery run, we’ll see.

Morning
I woke up around 4 and decided to get up. Boss had already got up and was on her bed in the living room.... snoring, 
I put the coffee on and watched the second half of the football game on that I started watching yesterday. I'm waiting for daylight so I can get out and get the mowing at the barn done early.
Next I'll come back to the house and get busy cleaning up all the fallen branches and get them cut into wood stove size.
Maybe I can squeeze so airgun shooting in between. The weather looks like low to mid 80's for the next several days so I might get the outside shooting deck ready for some outdoor fun of the North Range. It will be nice to get back outdoors and lose this cabin fever from hiding from all the heat we had this year.
I also want to check on my cast pellet supply.

Good morning, I have to undo a secret squirrel moment from Thursday. I wasn't happy where the van was parked so I move, nope not there, moved it again not there and it was there to stay. I have had to wait for the water receed enough to get out. That has drove me nuts the last 3 days. Then fix the dryer switch in the door, the little tab broke that turns it on and off. Never a dull moment around here.

It's suppose to get up to 94f today.🥵🥵🥵 Don't know what hit me but around 5pm I started shaking and couldn't get warm. Hopped in the shower with the water as hot as I could stand and I was still shaking 🫨. Went in my room which was around 82+. Put on some sweat pants and a jacket shirt and layed on my bed just shaking. It finally stopped around 7pm and boy was I happy about that. Then a couple hours later of course I started over heating.🤬 Last time that happened was when I got the first covid shot. Didn't have that problem with the second shot. I feel like crud this morning.🤢

After mowing this morning I noticed yet another flat front tire. This is the one I had Pete's boys fix some time ago. I already put a tube in the other side so I decided it was time to do this one as well. I had it sitting on the shelf because I had bought 2. I didn't want to fight this one like I did the other so I pulled the wheel off and took it down the road to a tire shop some Mexicans recently opened in town. Good thing I did because the glue that Pete's boys put on one side of it had a death grip on it. They had to use the machine to bust it loose.
Anyways, both front casters now have tubes in them.

Hope you get over that stuff soon Robert.

 I woke up at 4:24 I woke up my wife a little while later, we got up about 5:45.

 The weather forecast is a high of 94°F with 17% humidity today. 
 Yesterday morning and evening there were lots of fruit flies though making it hard to be outside for very long. Those things love to fly into the eyes, nose, and ears. They don't bite but sure are annoying pest.

 I don't have any real plans for today.

Prayers, for Roberts health. Get well soon!

Thanks guys. I'm just hoping it's not covid. I don't have to worry about the wife as she had it a few weeks ago. I never was exposed to her as I went to my daughter's house before she came home.

Good morning GTA! Happy Sunday! I got up around 0500 or so. We have Church this morning and small group this afternoon. We’re going to just relax, mostly, other than that. Andi, my wife, will be home Wednesday night. We’ll have some stuff we want to get done before she’s back home. But, we have plenty of time. I’m on vacation Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday. Ayrabella will pitch in for her part after school those days.

Wakie Wakie...
WOW !!  I slept until 6 this morning. I can't even remember the last time I slept that late. I did wake up 2 or 3 times during the night but went back to sleep. I think it's the cooler weather at night. I don't sleep well when it's hot and humid out... even with the a/c on.
We don't have any plans set for today but I'm sure I'll find something that needs done.

Good morning, the van is free from the clutches of the mush monster yard. Nothing broke and 4 holes to fill in when it dries out. Next up is the dryer door switch repair, not looking forward to that one but I need the dryer after this muddy mess this week. All the family and friends are accounted for and no injuries, just frayed nerves.

As long as you have the part needed dryers are easy to work on. I'm sure you got this!
Good to hear your family and friends are all ok!

Good morning, it is still morning on the west coast. I woke at 3:25 rolled over and went back to sleep, then woke up and got up at 4:22, beating my alarm clock that I had set for 4:30. 

 We had Sunday School and Church this morning. Now my wife is making lunch and I am here checking in.
 
 We have our evening service at 5:00 PM

 Again I may or may not take a Sunday nap, probably not? I have some things I could do outside and probably will because we are to have a high of 94°F today and this next week is going to be in the triple digits everyday again. I would rather do them while it is somewhat cooler.

It's the switch in the door that is broken, I will just bypass it, I don't care if it is still running when I open the door, I just need it to dry the clothes. I am just about tired of cheap plastic part in appliances. I have plenty of delrin to make replacements if possible.

 Bypassing the "safety" feature, you sound like the type of person to rip the tag off your mattress too. LOL
 I admire that bold spirit. I also hate the "cheap" build quality. Things are made to fail nowadays, instead of being made to last.

I've fixed a our few appliances over the decades but eventually they all got too old and were replaced with newer ones.   I told the salesman that our old washer and dryer lasted 35 years.   He assured me that the new ones wouldn't last that long.  In the olden days when you had a few good solid river rocks to beat clothing against, it would last several generations.   Not sure if they make 'em like that any more.

Morning... welcome to Monday.
Up at 5 and made coffee. Betty Lou signed off on exploring options for trading both ATVs and the 16" trailer to haul them for a used SXS/UTV. It's probably going to take some time to find something but the search is on.
Weather is expected to be in the mid 80s with no rain in sight so I plan on getting out doors more today.

Ernie, I have been babying a Sears Kenmore washer that I have had since 1985. The companion dryer gave up in 2010 when the heating element and a few other things quit working and the replacement is a Kenmore as well. All are knob machines and not tied to a d--n cell phone. Yep they don't make them like they use to.
