    I'm just checking on some online stuff including TW 60+ thread. Looks like everyone is enjoying a productive and good weekend.

    My wife is with 6 girl friends 300 miles south in St. George. I get the house to myself which is nice! Today I drained, cleaned, and refilled the hot tub, resealed the travertine in the master shower, tuned up the mower and edger, mowed the lawn for the first time this season, put down pre-emergence fertilizer, washed and changed the bedding, and cleaned the house. I'm a regular pseudo-wife (just kidding on the sexist comment). I'm going to mesquite smoke me a big steak for dinner and watch OP Live in sweats tonight. My day of freedom ends tomorrow.

    Have a good rest of the weekend.

    Well, I am very happy to have this one under my belt, and all gone! Now, we can start upping the flavor wifey says! I kept things really basic to get a handle on everything.

    Looks delicious.

    Good morning. Went to bed early and up early. Slept through the night which does not happen often enough. It rained pretty hard yesterday around 2:30 pm. We did not get as much as was originally predicted. Yesterday was pretty busy so I was happy to take it easy last night. I have a feeling we are going out for dinner and music tonight.

    Have a great day everyone, looks like a few had a productive day. All I managed to to was add another anniversary to the day of my birth and enjoy the day with my wife and adult kids. My daughter wanted to go to the shoe store with me next to the Walmart, there was this homeless guy that "WORKS" there. Same dude every day 6 hrs a day standing on the corner, she wanted to ask him if he wanted to work for her place of employment (she hires staff) thinking with that dedication she might get a good employee that would stay for more than a couple days. But didn't think he would want to drive to the other side of town. We have about 5 people in this city. That had their spots and they are there every day. One is guitar guy. He hangs out a solid 8 hrs. 5 days a week.

    Day off work, slept in a bit, coffee in bed. Backs been bothering me for months, ibuprofen and more coffee until I could stand up straight. Mowed the lawn for the first time this year. I fertilized it last week and then we had a bunch of rain so it was quite long.
    Now the BBQ is lit and it will be ribeyes and steamed Brussel sprouts for dinner. If I don't run out of gas I need to treat my new motorcycle boots with mink oil.
