weird
Ants?
The glitter-glue on my cards isn’t drying. Maybe chemistry isn’t working like it should today.
this is very weird
Somehow, it just seemed apropos!
Some people are like Slinkys. They're not good for anything but it's still fun to push them down the stairs.
Or is that an un-Christlike thought?
I’d rather be at the bottom of the stairs and watch the slinky fall on its own than to be at the top and encourage the descent.
i am going to miss that letter on my keyboard
It could b a grat dal wors.
lol
Umm..
I've made it a point to avoid that for many many decades... ;-)
Good thin’in’, Baba.
I thought so too...
And on an other note, completing an epistle from yesterday for anyone interested in the continuing saga of.. Once the glowing orb resumed its location above the horizon bringing light to the darkness, and once the rain stopped, and once the puddles in the gravelrockdirt of the drive oozed into the ground, I managed to complete the half hour oil change that took almost two hours to not complete in the darkening gloom of yesterday. Being able to see greatly helps in devising fortuitous work-arounds...
Then to complete the list of stuff to do before the snow falls Wednesday (and yes, they are still in the 6-10 inches of solidified glowbull warmthing mode) I stabilized the push mowers, started my lawn tractor to make sure it was charged up, rearranged the shedinabox so that the push mowers were buried in the back and the tractor and Olde Deere were in front, started the Olde Deere and moved it around under its own power, verified that the auger augeres, fluffed up its tires, (if they get low, it throws off the tirechains which are a real pain to reinstall when there is snow on the ground - ranks right up there with replacing the auger drive belt in similar conditions) maneuvered it into the shedinabox oriented for ease of egress in snow, and shut if down by turning off the fuel and allowing the carb to run dry. That procedure seems to be the workaround to the 'it won't start when it's cold' issue of previous years. Whether that syndrome was due to cruddy electrical contacts in the on/off key switch or icing in the carburetor I don't know, but killing it by starving it instead of switching it off seems to have worked last winter...
Should the notalwaysaccuraweather people be correct, I will soon find out if that still works this year.
Looks like I need to plan my 'last minute' trip to the store for tomorrow instead of Wednesday... ;-)
It's strange though. My clothes smell of Deere fumes...
That's why we call them "Weather Prognosticators" and "Weather Prevaricators."
Somewhere in this great wide beautiful land there is a washing machine pump wending its way to my domicile.
Its arrival will be welcome.
Washing machines, you see, do essentially three things; they slosh the water around to wash the clothes or rinse them clean. They spin the tub around to wring the water out. And they, if that is they have a working water pump, pump the water out of the tub so that drying can commence.
Depending on your arrangement where the washer lives, you can induce a siphon operation to drain the washer if the pump doesn’t work.
Theoretically.
A pump is what I just got with my foresighted warranty service.
And with that, I’m going to do more laundry.
And keep in mind that if the vendor gave you a tracking number - it’s probably a lie..
That seems a bit harsh, and quite unlikely.
I didn’t overnight it.
I tried to post a picture of my tool rack thingy, just like the ones in kitchens for pots. But I could not copy it from Facebook on my iPad. I’ll need to take a better picture. The one I took from iPad was fuzzy.
