And I need to get some plants in the darn ground. Usual dog walk and short bike ride too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maddmaxx ★ Posted June 22, 2019 Share #5 Posted June 22, 2019 Today will involve an experiment to see what happens to my shoulder when chainsawing two trees that are broken and hanging over the garden. PT has worked quite well, but this will be a bitostrain. It is however the first dry weekend we have had where we were available to do the job...........dry till this afternoon that is. After that, surprise, rain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More storms forecast around dinner time so will try to avoid that. 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dottleshead ★ Posted June 22, 2019 Share #12 Posted June 22, 2019 Saturdays have been reserved for Dad. We are having the deck guy come over and finish some work for us and then we drive 60 miles to go see dad. Afterwards, probably hook up with some friends. For the first time in eons, tomorrow appears to be shaping up as a free day. Probably get some desperately needed yard work done. Maybe even go purchase some new screens for the windows. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maddmaxx ★ Posted June 22, 2019 Share #25 Posted June 22, 2019 I'm now carefully watching womaxx use a chain saw for the first time to take off some the branches on the pieces that have to be dragged away. It's frightening but I gave her the safest saw I had, a 6" blade on 2 sections of what is normally a longer pole for working on overhead stuff. This way the blade is about 6' away from her and she is limited to small branches only. In her favor, she seems to be doing well. I had to go out once to show her why she was stuck in a cut that was tightening around the blade as the branch collapsed. After getting the saw loose I had her finish the cut in an upward cutting motion. Don't tell her but it's funny to watch her unconsciously impart a small sawing motion to the process while the chain is chewing through a branch. I can really recommend these small electric saws, even my main saw for use around a normal yard where lumberjacking isn't needed. They are a lot safer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Longjohn ★ Posted June 22, 2019 Popular Post Share #26 Posted June 22, 2019 I’m still floating around a flooded lake. All the access points are closed do to flooding. Why do the call it a flood control dam if they can’t even keep their campground from flooding? I am absolutely the only person on the lake today. I drove down an old abandoned railroad bed to get here. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onbike1939 Posted June 23, 2019 Share #48 Posted June 23, 2019 Today is Sunday and I'm gong to hand-wash a few shirts as my washing machine has been broken for seven weeks now and still not repaired. This is a big deal for me, as standing and bending over the sink is difficult. I'm now on a reading binge and am re-reading some of Richard Morgan's novels before beginning a new one...at least for me. A light lunch and a Chinese carry-out for dinner, then I'm going to sit for a long time thinking about starting intermittent fasting in order to lose some weight. I tend to sit and think about this a lot. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longjohn ★ Posted June 23, 2019 Share #49 Posted June 23, 2019 This actually works. Whenever my belly is getting bigger than I want it I make sure I don’t eat anything after supper and I delay breakfast or skip it altogether. Belly goes flat in no time. That’s the skinny guy’s weight loss plan. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I moved here the new Docs found that I had stomach ulcers and then went ahead and cured me. Result was, that after twenty years I regained my appetite and now I get hungry.......two stone weight gain as a result. A win some....lose some situation.
