Yesterday we cleaned the chimney out on the fur shed, stacked hay in the barn and looked at a JD grain drill, and bought it. I'll pick it up in a couple of weeks. It looks in pretty good shape. Once I get it home I'll go through it, grease it and replace a couple of parts. Its an old seeder but should work good for our needs. It has both boxes, one for grain and one for grass and alfalfa seeds.
We got about 3 inches of snow last night and this morning.

Decent looking drill. How wide is it? 16' or so?
 
Well, this old tightwad finally spent some money...
My elbow spends all day, every day on the hard armrest of my chair.
The skin on my elbow (which I cannot see) got in bad shape and had a scab on it.
I fought with it, and finally pulled it off.
What I could not see was, it was dripping blood on my jeans. :oops:
I knew this problem won't go away, so I ordered an elbow-pad to go on the chair.
It even came with a backup for when/if I mess it up.:thumbs:

Got up, worked out, went swimming, sat in the hot tub, came back to the apartment complex, said goodbye to the girl who is staying at a friends until tomorrow afternoon, ran some errands, went to the range, wasted some ammo, went out to the storage unit, ran a couple more errands, came back home, met mega-Karen's husband in the office are and was shocked to find out he's a normal person, also he is definitely cheating on her, talked to the lady a few times through the course of the day, made up some pico de gallo for dinner, turned on the television, grabbed my laptop, poured a glass of sugar free iced tea and that brings you up to my current state of affairs.
 
Puttered around, put some of the outside stufff away, visited with our neighbors. Actually doing a little relaxing. While I was out, Dad emptied the pantry cupboard and packed that up. Left the boxes on the floor for to move. Reminded me, with a smile, he’s not to do any lifting or carrying.
 
My lifetime trick or treat candy distribution score is now officially 3/3. A boy in a hazmat suit, a little girl riding a dinosaur and another little girl dressed as a bee. There was a 4th kid who looked to be 12 or so but he was "too old" to trick or treat so he declined a piece of candy. The only allow trick or treating between 4pm-7pm so I have two hours left to improve my score.
