What's everybody doing today?

[d_marsh]

Got up, worked out, did a few chores, cleaned up and went to the city for my coffee date with a 19 year old girl. Stopped by the law firm and talked more about the offer they extended. The pay is really good and it doesn't seem too dangerous or likely to land me in jail, so I said I would do a job or two to see if it's a good fit. I will work for him directly but also for a much larger law firm that already has in house investigators and outside security consultants. Pretty sure I will being doing the things they can't or won't do. Sounds interesting huh? My first assignment is next week and involves "requiring assets". So I may have been wrong about that ending up in jail part. Fortunately I already have a lawyer.

done baking, baked less than last week, hope we sell it all
talked to market manager and she says everyone is complaining about not selling a lot , not a good sign. I think we have too many vendors, but she thinks people are just not buying much, we are probably both right

I have a friend who sells invisible thongs,,,for the mud pit.

@Frodo, Now you knew better than to put her behind the wheel, as she was dragging you around she thought of every time you talked back or left the toilet seat up and she washed her backside unexpectedly.

Hope you get well soon this heat and humidity is surely not gonna help down river.

Our market was hopping today, Sonya....only there's only 5 sellers, including little granddaughter. She sold all the eggs, some tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers. Was happy enough. Another lady that does baked stuff had to run home to pull more cinnamon rolls out of her freezer because she sold out. I bought chive bread, some cookies that we ate sitting there, green beans, and a bucket of tomatoes (seconds) for the freezer.

Had a hold my beer moment today
My lawn mower is giving me fits,I could not figure it or So I asked a friend
Bring it over says he
So here I go, hooked a chain to the mower and hooked it to my Van
Rut Roo. Wife says she has never pulled anything before
No big deal,, just go slow and stay a constant speed,,
Oh jeeeez, constant to some is not the same meaning to others
To make a long story short .she all but stopped causing me tapas the tow car
Then sped up for some reason lawn mower flipped,sent me airborne

View attachment 158831

I landed on my head then the mower landed on me, 3 staples in my head and 2 broken ribs
I feel like I was beaten with a stick then kicked around for 20 minutes

Dang Frodo! Soak in an Epsom salts bath and heal up quickly

 

[Bacpacker]

Dang Frodo. Was wife po'd at you? Get well soon.

Made cheese this morning. It’s in the press. Got my sourdough mixed up and stretched and in the fridge until morning. Mowed the main part of the lawn last night when I came home from work. Today used the little mower to do around the side of the house and pulled a bunch of weeds and grass.
@Neb I just received the spray yesterday so haven’t had a chance to use it yet.
106* out there right now so just going out to move water. Supposed to cloud up and be muggy tonight

 

[Ekatarina]

9 pm and I will try to see my bed soon

Too warm and humid outside today

So ...bye bye .. nite nite

 

[teeceetx]

Another exciting day in my current world!

A trip to the bank and to Target were the highlight of my day.

In spite of a decent nights sleep last night, I have been tired, achy, and sleepy all day.

The temp was 102* today ... fit for no one.

Looks like my back injury will have destroyed my summer completely. Haven't even been able to get in the pool!! Hopefully I will by the end of August.

On that note, everyone have a great night!

Packing the car for a trip north tomorrow. Books, supplies and ammo.

 

[d_marsh]

Got up, worked out and skipped everything else to grab coffee, fetch the laptop and head straight to the patio. 66 right now but is supposed to hit 96 later. Gotta get the fresh air time when I can. Have lots spinning on the noggin right now between the Lady, the job offer and the property developer. I am not a worrier just a strategist making sure my next moves on all fronts are in my best interest.

 

[Pearl]

Busy morning already! Everything fed and watered, pool backwashed, Bear's pool scrubbed and ready for him later. Buddy is brushed and fly sprayed. He had a chipped back hoof, got it trimmed and prettied up! Heading to one small job today. Also doing laundry, trimming Bear's nails, and vacuuming!!

 

[Mountain trapper]

It's extremely smokey here this morning. Probably the worst that we've ever seen. The sun looked like a red ball when it was coming up. Today I'm going to work on the new meat chicken coop and then put gravel down for the fire pit area. Next week I'll go down south and pick up some lumber for the coop and the large blocks for the fire pit.
Yesterday it hit 94 degs here, heard it was 107 in town. I need to refill the water tank this morning so we can take a dip later today.

Sitting on the porch licking my wounds.

 

[Bluedanube]

Drink some coffee. Work in the garden for a bit. Hang out with the cat under the fan. Hope the capacitor for the ac actually shows up so we can cook dinner tonight and I can process some tomatoes.

 

[Tirediron]

@ Hashbrown uch, the rest of the story?

 

[Mountain trapper]

Just heard the fire to our north grew by 2500 acres over night. They're calling for more dry lightning over the next couple of days. Hopefully we'll get some rain in the next couple of months. I need to start taking some hay out to the cows today. They're getting kind of restless.

I was in my chair covered up with a blanket like an old man Alexandra called me to dinner I got up tripped over the blanket and ran my head into the hardwood floor. The sandwich was great though!
