    Since I cut down all my trees, storms are so much less stressful.
    I recently found a sheet of... looked like a flat roof panel on the roof of my garage.
    Couldn't figure out where it'd blown from. Cutting the lawn this weekend I realized it's from the neighbor's chicken coop, but already been replaced.

    One of the trees was on a van and two cars in someones driveway. Damage looked to be mostly scratches from branches.

    Worked on a 14 Altima that was towed in. L/R lower control arm broke.
    Warranty enhancement or something like that. Customer is getting two new lower control arms (left and right sides) and an alignment for nothing.

    Good morning CT!

    Spent the last two days (on my lunch hour) organizing my tools. Probably about 80% done. Still need to pick up some specialty tools (Amazon).

    I'm gonna have to start mowing mine as well.

    My backyard grows quicker than the front because the back is damp underneath.

    Well...back from my 2nd trip to the transfer station this morning.

    Stopped there earlier to throw out a broken step ladder.

    My wife comes in from out on the deck:

    "I thought you threw out the the broken ladder? "
    "WUT?"

    Yep, threw out my good ladder. Good thing it was still on top. :anonymous:

    Glad I built the new deck with added clearance. Old deck barely cleared the stock toyota. Came in handy today.

    Good morning CT!
    More boring tests. :annoyed:
    I looked through them to see what I needed to do and make sure I was doing the correct tests, damn there's a lot.

    I'm 21% finished with the "Certification" module and I still have 22 presentations/tests to do in that module. Eight total modules. :annoyed:

    Yes, I'm getting paid for my time spent.

    I thought the tests were bad. This sexual harassment "course" is even worse.
