Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

48 and mostly sunny, on its way to 81 today.

And 91 tomorrow.

Better get the lawn mowed sometime this morning before it gets toasty outside. I have some work to do on the patio, but I don't have to wait for the grass to dry out to do that.

 

Oh, what a difference a set of Costco furniture/decor can bring.

 

Good morning shop crew. Have a great Saturday!

 

You can tell me to mind my own business but Dr don’t recommend peroxide anymore. Studies show it damages healthy tissue and slows healing.
Ok I’ll mind my own business now.

 

Shit
Dam
SOAB
Got a soft set epoxy mix.
Have to redo 6 ball repairs.
Has only happened one other time.
No one else would notice but, this guy is a pro. And throws like a mother.
I can’t, in good conscience, even think of letting this go.
Doesn’t sound right when I tap on it.
Glad I’m not on a close completion date..

 

Drive it every day, just live close to work!

 

In things you didn't expect to see today, I present to you:

These screws were in my wife's foot yesterday, and today they are not.

This is what $10,000 screws look like, at least that's what the hospital charged my insurance for em.

I'm in the wrong business...

 

Well kept! Your truck is appreciated . My trip to work is around 10 miles but I have close to 180k on odometer on a ‘06, I must say it treats me well.

 

That costs more than the bolt they charged the Pentagon , but I have to say, your wife’s health is priceless.

 

Tapping with a hammer: $2.00

Knowing where to tap: $9,998.00

Hope she's doing better.

 

What was the issue that she had to have them removed?

 

Thinking you’re a Mainer

 

I have a few of them in my tool box I would have gladly of let you have them.

 

Tell me about it, I told em I know a guy that can get me clean room rated hardware, can I get a discount?

Or can I have my old lady wash some dishes out back for a price reduction but nobody seemed to think that was appropriate....

Seriously though, I'm thankful for good insurance. $200 copay each time to put screws in and out, and they charge my insurance over 150k...

To why the screws had to come out, my wife's pain was constantly like an 8/10 after having them in, they served their purpose and healed the fracture but bone spurs/ scar tissue had built up around the entrance...coming out.

 

I pray she gets out of pain.

 

Thanks for that Mike, been a rough year for us physically. Keep the faith and trust in him...

Who knew Mulberry wood was so yellow?!?

 

Pulled pork for mother's day

 

I'm on a well. Iron isn't an issue, but it is hard AF. Meanwhile you can go up the road 15 minutes and it's nothing but iron and not that hard. Guess it depends on how far the well goes down. From what I can tell most of this roads wells are in the 100' range. Meanwhile 1/8 of a mile behind me the neighbor drilled an extra well on their farm 700' and it produces pretty much no water. Been meaning to tell them to get it hydrofracked to see what happens.

 

Morning all have a great day
