Tiller Drained
I drained the gas out of the tiller since I believe we’re done with it for the season. It was a beautiful day and Sandy and I went for a 12 mile bike ride around Hurst. I’ve decided I’m going to take my picture in front of all the parks in the city. So I…

Successful Bread!!!
If you’ve been following the adventures in bread baking, you’ll know it’s been a pretty abject failure all around, even the bread maker has only raised my bread baking game to sub-standard. I’m happy to announce we’ve had success. This was in furtherance of making sub rolls and using the bread machine recipe for dough.…

Sand Burr Pre-Emergent Applied
I saw some sand burr plants in the grass so I re-applied the pre-emergent although I think that I used less water than I should have, evidently there are 8 pint to a gallon not 16, oh well, still did the right area so it should be fine.

Recalls Complete
While I love my truck, the closest Ram dealership leaves a bunch to be desired. I finally got hold of them and they actually had the parts in stock to fix the last two of four recalls that were left. So I’m completely up to date. It was kind of cool in that they took…

Yard Done, House Back Together

Blower/Vac Upgrade
As I’ve grown older, I get particular about my yard tools. As much as I’d like a motorized jet backpack like my neighbor, with the small property I have, I’ll stick with the electric. And not the wireless, with my fathers passing I have about half a mile of extension cords so give me a…

Truck Waxed & Other Chores
I got a little more finalization work done on the bricks today. Also moved furnature in the master bedroom so painting can commence, the painting will happen tomorrow so I’m not sure where we’re sleeping tonight. Did the annual cleaning of the AC compressor too, should be good to go for the summer. I also…

Retail Therapy
I started the day at the gym, it was a nice morning so after a 30 minute walk, I took the long way back to the truck by the Hurst river. It was pretty, with all the rain we’ve had it was flowing and it was nice to hear the waterfall. On rare occasion, I…

Lazy Day
We were due for some rain today so I got up early and got some stuff done and even had breakfast. Did some work on podman and Sandy and I walked the mall to get some steps. It was a nice lazy day and I hope to get some more done tomorrow.
