    I can't go out in the yard without a head band on - sweat doesn't take long to run in to the eyes down here.

    Much cooler in my sunroom!

    Putzed some illegal fogs off today. (They are always covered) They are really great, so I will probably build something to put them down below at some point.

    Putzed some Round up and bug preventer too!

    Going to try another new little show tomorrow morning.

    Thanks! It's just a formed plastic grill from Amazon, that's been painted and chipped up a few times! I bought a used custom mesh grill I will be fixing up at some point. (still other brands just like it available - plug and play)

    Amazon.com: EAG Replacement Upper Grille ABS Black Mesh Front Hood Grill Fit for 05-11 Tacoma : Automotive

    Front and rear bumpers are ARB knock-offs from DV8, acquired from friends, and are expensive now!

    Morning.
    Wish the lawn would be dryer in the am. I could mow it.
    See if I can get some of it done before storms roll in around noon.
    So humid.
    If I can get the front done and the garage hill done I’ll be happy…

    If I don’t melt first

    Good morning. Welcome to the weekend. Thunderstorms last night and going to be another hot and humid day. I normally do not wish time away, but I am sort of glad the past week is over. I had 6 medical appointments with one that needed to be rescheduled so I actually showed up for 7 appointments. Lots of good news, my back may be messed up but there is no surgery in my future, I do have two more tests the back doc wants completed. these are scheduled for later in August. My knee did not get a shot but there is really no pain. My AIC is down to 6.0, a drop of .1 in the last three months. I finished my back therapy and have managed to transfer the exercises over to the gym on a daily basis. Overall I am feeling pretty great!

    Today we are off to a winery to have a light snack and listen to music. I do not know if we will have a real dinner. Nothing is out of the freezer and I really do not care. Everyone have a great weekend.

    I put new spindles and Gator Blades on the rider recently.
    My crab grass is wicked thick and never dries out but the blades do a number on it and pulverizes it pretty good.
    Can't put any chemicals in the back yard on account of the 3 dogs, so crab grass it is.

    7 Dr. appointments in one week Tom! :eek:
    Good news that they aren't recommending surgery, I would only go that route only as a very last resort.

    Small lift, slightly oversized tires, well...
    I haven't cut my grass since the end of May, maybe the first week of June. Finally got some rain this week and may actually have to cut it this weekend. Temps here are supposed to stay in the low 80s this week too.

    We have had 3 times the rain.
    If it’s not raining it’s so hot you can’t do anything.
