What's everybody doing today?

I’m still nailing down the design details.
ETA if you are good, maybe you’ll get matching nail polish in your stocking

Go visit an old grandma and ask to use the restroom

Just got home from a wedding — couple of local friends who were having it out in Michigan, because their families are more local to that area.

Very jealous of one friend’s parents’ place — 10 acres, well, wood, and a nice little garden. Apparently it used to be a Christmas tree farm.

Michigan was nice. I’d never been there before. Still haven’t been to Detroit (we went through Chicago … yeah I’ll pass on the Windy City except as a tourist), but Lansing was pleasant, the weather was perfect, and we had a nice time.

Hope you all have been doing well this past week!

Michigan is pretty in places! @jishinsjourney glad you had a safe trip.
@Magpie I am so sorry about your loss of so many friends so close together. Safe travels to you and hope your pain is relieved.
I can't keep up with everything that is going on here with everyone.
@Bacpacker was today your city trip or is that tomorrow?
I've been trying to keep track of my sister and all in FL. She wishes I wouldn't talk about the weather I think. She can't hear so great on the phone so we text or other messaging. I sure miss my siblings.

Good Morning.
Going to take Nephew to work & clean up yard, leave & cut grass one more time.

I'm back to the grind, putting in new ties at Bailey Yard in North Platte. I'm just about to ready to leave this gang and go to a new one. It isn't what I thought it would be.

Looking forward to a little vacation, going over to the Maquoketa Caves next week with GF and Ruby the dog. Then we plan on going to the Mines of Spain, where Julien Dubuque set up lead mines when Iowa was still a Spanish possession. Should be a nice little 3 day trip. Then when I get back my daughter is coming home from college to spend a little time with me. I don't think I could ask for a better week off.

Today while eating lunch I saw an article that made me nervious:
‘Waste to value’: Inside cutting-edge DARPA efforts to make food out of trash and gasses | DefenseScoop

internet is on and off again , power will probably follow , uggh! How annoying
today I am goign to clean out the 2 water tanks we got delivered yesterday. They had soy oil in it and are food grade. We will put one of them on blocks in the barn for animal water and the other one up at the house in one of the buildings for us if we need it. So our water backup should be ok for at least a week or so now.
My heel hurts again today , started yesterday and I am not sure why. I didn't do much walking yesterday. It's just in one spot on the side of it.
Ok, going to get started now , animals need taking care of

Husband's got a doc appt in town, so I'll be getting him to that. Probably filling a cart at Aldi afterwards. Dave the builder guy should be here in about an hr. Thinking that he's working on the garage windows. There's lots of them and it's a two story. Weather sure feels different this morning, it's in the high 40's out this morning. Little granddaughter has an all day field trip to Wichita today for band, so she's excited. I would hate to be on that bus.

Yesterday we went down and picked up some lumber to finish the roof over the chicken coop porch. Got a 10ft section of 2" pipe, and concrete, to mount the Starlink on. And got feed, dog food, new tire for the log splitter, ammo, and other miscellaneous stuff. It was pretty hot down there, 81 degs, 60 degs when we got home.
Got another load of gravel being delivered today. I'll spread it out where I'm building the new atv, side by side and snowblower parking garage. It'll be 16×20.

Made it to Nashville yesterday. Got bumped for procedure. Just waiting
