    A little something every chance we get.
    We do have very large turkey buzzards around here. I could guess that a bird likely grabbed it out of some mud, thinking food, and just happened to decide to drop it over the tiny pond. But it filled the pond with sediment, so I would guess it would have been larger when it got picked up.

    It's just been that kind of week, so why not.

    I wonder if it was smaller, then expanded sitting in the water.

    Been fricken cold here some mornings on the ebike. When it's really cold I don't wear a helmet and just keep my hoodie over my head and ears to stay warm, not good. So I ordered a helmet for the spring and fall.

    I did a short YouTube video about it.

    How's Weesa this evening?? Guess what?? New girl quit - said "she didn't realize what all the job entailed". She'll work until Friday :annoyed:

    :hattip: Rob..... I don't think she'd do that.... would she? Doesn't seem like a legitimate reason :notsure:

    I was banned once. Thank goodness it was warm that night.

    Finished this phase of electrical. Added a couple 20A circuits. Plus a quad in the breezeway.

    Got quicker as I moved along. No hiccups. One bad GFCI outlet.

    I can't work for 30 days after 29 April... so I couldn't go back until 1 June. When I first started 15 years ago, there were 3 of us in the office.... 2 and a part timer would be ideal. But, not my call.

    Good morning fellow Porchatonians!!

    Back to feeling about 80% - still not sure what got me but I'm feeling a little better each day. Think I'll do another Covid test today just to make sure.

    This is my helmet option - had a friend who owns a printing store work up some custom graphics for me. :D
