Waiting for Iroman3 to start in an empty theater.

 

Funny, I saw it in a theater last weekend with two other people besides us.

 

Oh, and nice work, Acidbasement!  And vultures are everywhere out near Mayberry.  Even the ones with actual feathers.

Got home last night to test the freshly cleaned carb on the tractor. One pull, fired right up, yay!

arriving soon in a post near you, Nate mowing the lawn.

 

 

And sweet raise!  I'd be psyched to get 2% this year, which seems unlikely given the budget shenanigans that continue to go on in Washington.  Right now a 5% cut is what I'm looking at.

Spread out ~3.5 yards of mulch after work - it appears I miscalculated how much I actually needed.  Now I need to figure out where to spread the remaining ~1.5 yard of mulch.

Let's just call it a failed business venture and leave it at that. I have too much on my plate these days to have to think about that catastrophe, which instantaneously gets the blood boiling.

What is a screw machine? 

 

Nevermind that. 

 

Wtf do you need a screw machine for? 

 

Wow, you straight guys really are naive!

Helped a cockatiel chick out of its eggshell this morning.  Three eggs to go.

 

Our birds had one successful clutch in the winter, and since then they've had three duds (one of which was nasty - they attacked the chicks right after they hatched).  This one looks like it's off to a good start, with father Lance already starting to feed it.

Three hours, wow Nate that is a lot of mowing!  Where do you put all of those grass clippings?  I bet you have one heck of a compost heap brewing on your property.

Yes, it is a large pile. I run a triple bag power-flo bagger system and I'd wager I emptied it 10 times today. The consequence of the bagger needing repairs and not getting to mow for two weeks. And that's with the irrigation system turned off. :palm:

You just have to lower your standards. 8)

I mow infrequently and mulch, my lawn wins no beauty pageants, and I'm at peace with that.

This. I'm aiming for just good enough the neighbors don't complain.

"Hello, Mrs. Maher?  Hi, this is acidbasement.  Yes, the one from the internet.  Listen, it's come to our attention that your lawn looks too nice, and, well, it's making the rest of us look bad.  Would you consider mowing less frequently and mulching please?  We'd really appreciate it.  Thanks, and have a great weekend!"

 

Think it'll work?  Awaiting your phone number.
