What is going on with you, Pearl? Is it a lotion, spray, perfume...something these bitey things love?
What's everybody doing today?

You must have a Bite Me sign on your back
I didn't put it there.

I know did!! (LL)
You all are not going to believe this, but fresh cow poop mixed with honey or sugar will draw out a deep access.
I do not have access to fresh cow poop at this time. I will not have access to fresh cow poop at any time in the foreseeable future, either. And if someone grants me access to fresh cow poop, I will politely refuse!
Regardless of drawing ability, I have an issue with putting feces on any type of breach in the skin. It just seems like a good way to introduce harmful bacteria into the system...

Friday 13th
I might do something, probably won't.
I will be buying my lottery ticket today
......and picking on Pearl
Pulled my tomato plants yesterday. We’re supposed to get a freeze tonight. I need to unhook the hoses today.
Also errands — my new glasses are in, gonna go check out the Y that we’ve been meaning to get by, that kind of thing.

Walked first and then walked dogs.
Next, I need to inventory canned veggies that I buy and make a list of what is needed.
Go hit the dented can store with my friend.

Got some beef strips in the smoker. Using pecan wood this time. It's cold and windy here today mid 30's, but the sun is out.

Husband's having a bad morning, pain in his shoulder and he can't use it. So pain pills, and helping him just get around. Hard to use a walker if you can't use an arm. We are having wind storms today, so no outside work today, but animals are done till later. Little granddaughter does not have school today, so thinking of stopping into our little town with her in a while and checking out the thrift store, and checking the mail. Have some work to do in the basement, too. Emptied the dehydrator of tomatoes, and filled it up again.

Today I started to get serious about installing the transfer switch...
Next to the other service entrance.
I only got some planning done before I should think about more of the details. Installing a backing board for the switch will be pain. So I decided to go play in the shop some more.

@squirrelhunter, is there anywhere in between the ATV and the roots that you can set up & secure a pulley block? You can run the cable for the winch through it and it should give more leverage.
Somewhere up higher than the roots and the ATV.
I take it you don't have a truck or other vehicle for the winch?
Had a salad and searched for where the plug for my UPS plugs in. It's under a desk & table. Will have to shut down my computer, clean off the table, and move it to get to the wall outlet.
On the upside, I received my $50 gift card from Mistplay and applied it to my Amazon account.
Waiting for Mom to tell me she wants something to eat.

No there's no place to put a pulley, it's in the back yard. I do have a pick up but it's sort of a tight fit with the angle and the house, garage,shed gas tank and grape arbor all surrounding it. I'm giving up on it for this year it's getting to late in the year and I don't want it to start into a rainy season and then cold weather like it does quite a bit around here, you just never know. I've got a tile ready to come out and Monday I'll go get some PVC pipe and put a clean out in and see if I can look up the pipe with a flashlight and mirror and run the snake up it again then fill everything back in and hopefully it lasts until next Spring.

I got all of my fathers track after he passed. I have it in storage waiting for the time to build my garden railroad.

I got a surprise today . There’s a fella we’ve done work for who has sorta become a friend. He is to wood and cabinetry what we are to metal. He made this gorgeous cutting board for us and gave it to us today I already told Hubby he can’t cut on it 
. That’s a joke (sorta) I do have a few things that I take extra special care of. This will be one of those items.

Baked bread but not as much as usual since it is supposed to rain tomorrow. I hope the market doesn't get rained out totally. Last one till Christmas market
Got a call from my brother that our dad is in the hospital , heart issues. He has had them for a while now and they are to a point where they can't do much about it.
Took dogs for a walk, leaves are dropping off the trees fast now, winter is definitely coming but it was nice and warm today
