It's literally 100 degrees out. Too hot to do anything outside…in a brief moment of insanity, I thought today would be a good day to replace an upstairs bath vent fan and light, ya know it’ll be in air conditioned space… After much muttering, I got the old light, fan and vent housing box out. It was then like having a blow torch blowing in your face for the next hr or so, with the attic heated air pouring down on my face along with fiberglass insulation and 30 years of random debris for the next hr or two…(I needed to expand the ceiling hole for the new vent housing, require and eventually install the new unit). Needless to say there was amble dripping of tools and random small parts (screws, drill bit, Phillips head bit), instruction booklet multiple times, and a hammer that fortunately missed the toilet…
Yes it was ruff today. Noticed our water starting to stink so I shocked the well. While waiting on the chlorine to do its job I did some outdoor chores and was dripping wet by noon. The pool never felt better. Our well has a hole in the side of the casing. Wonder what that repair cost is going to be?
The horse flies this summer the worst I have ever seen. If I was a deer I would run in front of a car.
Foodies, saw a recipe for how to spatchcock chicken on the grill. Funny been cutting the back out of a whole chicken and grilling it low and slow for years and years with no $5 word to describe it.
I hate technology and AI. We're letting AI dictate what is best for us, as rationale thinkers, based on search bots using search engines to generate the results of biased opinions they cannot differentiate from. I miss Encyclopedia Britannica, Merriam Webster Dictionary and Roget's Thesaurus, paper formats. 70's and 80's editions, you don't need slang term additions to any of them. If you want to speak such, speak it, but it does not need recognized as an official word, definition or pronunciation. Should eff be a word because you want to avoid a 4 asterisk strike in a forums word bans? I can go on and on, but the dumbification of our youth and their ever growing laziness is detrimental to our existence. End rant, but not going to change anything.
We bought a full encyclopedia with great book literature for the kids when we moved out to the country miles and miles from nearest town. They are in their 40's now. We will not get rid of them for it's the only true "history" to be found anymore. We also have national geographic in leather bound cases. Yes I'm still going through them one at a time
Really bright people sometimes really amaze me in being so lacking in common sense. I literally wasted an hr trying to explain what will be 2 power point slide that effective describe: what, when and 'the so what'...
I know I have said it before but I need to say it again.... If you stop in the doorway or right outside of them at the store I reserve the right to push you over and throw bologna at you Sent from my Pixel 6 using Tapatalk
Had a hell of a day yesterday. Got the kids on the tube halfway down the lake the go fast dies, will not retire at all. Call to shore get a kayak to come out, I paddled in to get the pontoon to tow the go fast in. Got close to the dock put the pontoon in reverse to stop and nothing. Spun the hub of the pontoon motor. 2 boats out of commission in 1 hour, great times. Now I am trouble shooting the circuits on the top fast, and ordered a new prop for the pontoon. No pressure but I need to have both boats ready for my son's 20 person party next weekend.
