Title: Tuesday - March 30, 2021
Post by: ReadingBob on March 30, 2021, 07:42:48 AM
Morning all,

A new time entry system was rolled out at work this week.  It's just wonderful.  I'm really looking forward to the days when I no longer have to track/log my time.   ::)  No workbench time yesterday.  Maybe tonight.  I'm in the lighting phase of a little row home I'm building so I'll need to break out the LED's, soldering pencil, etc.

One of my favorite lighting projects from the past.  8)

Have a great one!

Happy Tuesday.  Next to last day of March.  Baseball season starts very soon.

Have to move 1300+ lbs of bricks today.  Been trying to unload (give away) them since last summer.  Finally got a taker.  Somehow, previous property owner had accumulated them for some reason and left them along with a few dozen cinder blocks (which were given away over the years).

Good morning! Bob that project did turn out great. It's supposed to get into the 60's here today - I think a walk outside will really help with the healing process.  Thank you again for all the posts of support yesterday, they meant a lot to me and my family. I hope everyone has a great day.

Morning,
Looks like those high winds left about 3 hours of yard work to do ... many branches down...but did enjoy the warm weather for 24 hours.
Cold now for the next 3 days before it warms up again ...only 31 this morning...Stay Safe... !

Larry, sounds like the previous property owner wanted to build his own wall, but then realized?...

23 deg C today , I'm off for a ride on the bicycle , too bad all restaurants and such are closed , would have been great to have had a beer or 2 along the way.

Have a great day all.

Morning all.

Yesterday was a warm but windy day, so we got our bike ride in then.

Today is less nice, but that's fine as it's all work anyway.

Bob, the lighting on that SOKOLS kit looks awesome. I've been meaning to get my hands on that one for a while, but they've been reaching $180+ on eBay and as it nears those prices I take a bow.

Good morning. I feel like s..t. Nothing specific but just the age old back pain. Think I'll sit on the back porch and watch Max and the birds. Jim

Checking in for the afternoon shift.  Jim, I hope you're feeling better as this day moves along.

Our winds died down and the sun is shining--just finished uncovering the fig trees in our front yard.  This is the earliest I've ever done it. They look good, having wintered under a blanket of leaves.  Hoping for another crop as big as last summer.

Time for a shower and then some workbench time.

Take care, all!

Thought I would catch up on day and check in. Hope the day got better for you Jim. Mine was OK, just some of the same age issues Jim had. Last night the our 13 year old pup was up all night, which means we were too. Vet says she has an ear infection. As I write this she is tucked in next to me. Hard to get upset with her when she does that.

I did some work on layout detailing today and helped (a little) clean the house. We have one of the kids and his family joining us for a week. Disney here we come. Take care/
