Slept in at GF's house this morning. It's the first time I've slept well since I got back from North Platte and it felt wonderful. I took Ruby the Lab for a mile and a half walk before I went home and of course she pooped in the neighbor's yard so I had to clean that up.

Got home at noon after a bit of shopping and worked on the loose heat shield under my RAV4. I had to use 4 washers of descending size and a flare nut on each corner of the shield to get it tight. It should stop rattling now. If it doesn't I'm probably going to say bad words and commit a felony of some sort. That rattle has been driving me nuts and this is the 4th attempt at fixing it.

Tonight I'm going to the gym and then I think I'll make breakfast for dinner. Might even have steak and eggs, or maybe a breakfast burger with bacon and eggs on it. (And tater tots!😀)
 
Bringing husband to that retina appt to most of the day. Couple hrs of driving round trip, and a couple hrs there. Ugh. Glad we don't have to do that often. Laundry done, tomorrow is supposed to rain some. Prefer to hang it outside. Got some outside trim painting done, around a garage window and around the garage door. Pup was watching and trying to eat a berry bush. Saying no wasn't cutting it, but this time the collar beep worked. Didn't even have to go to vibrate. Little granddaughter had no school today, and got the rabbit cages cleaned and a turkey run tarp back up. The sunset is gorgeous tonight.
 
Got the oil changed in the small snowblower and that was about it today. Since yesterday my left hip hurt so bad the wife had to help me get around. I couldn't put any weight on it. Hopefully it'll be better tomorrow. Pain or no pain the work still needs to get done.
I need to change oil in the tractor, my Jeep, the truck, the big snowblower and the backup generator. Then put chains on the tractor and put the rear blade on. On the next clear day I'm going to lay out the foundation beams for the ATV shed.
 
Whatcha got going on Mt Trapper....arthritis? Nerve damage? I've got both, and some days are good, and some days are really not.
Not really sure, the doc said a herniated disc in my lower back. I guess that could affect my hips and legs too. Or it could be the 100 pound bales that I put in the barn the other day.

Cold blustery day. Rain, wind, and dark all day. Went to Wmart 🤪. Made lotion bars for the year: give some to a friend and sending some back east in hurricane care packages.
Did some research but prior to 1970 periodical archives are sketchy.
If anyone needs to know, 5-1/2 cups of cooked pumpkin dehydrates down to 1 cup 😲
Oh yeah and went to fill my olive oil bottle and ended up pouring oil all over so there is now a clean and well oiled section of the kitchen 😂

Thought I got it all, but I noticed a shiny spot on the floor. Figure I am wearing socks so it’s good 😂
My two rules:
You can write your name in the dust as long as you don’t date it.
The floor’s not sticky unless it can pull your socks off 😂
