I had to work about 5 hours today.
They were able to cart me to the job site but a long time standing or setting on a folding metal chair took it's toll.

First really nice week of the year here. 70f and sunny today. Should be nice all week. I know this sounds like rubbing it in, but it was a long, dark winter, so the sun is much needed.

Nah, no worries, glad you have good weather. We had a couple weeks of unusually warm weather. I have about a 1/2 inch of snow on the ground right now and it is still snowing, but I don't expect it to amount to much. But in Western Mass they are looking at 4 to 6 inches and Southern Vermont is looking at 15 inches.

My biggest worry is that I took a gamble, because of the warm weather, and put some grass seed down early. Now snow, this could kill the seed

if it had not sprouted It should be ok.

so this cold snap isn't just here in the South!
I will need a snow suit to get the boat in the river! (we finally got a slip at a marina. So the tub will leave the driveway, AND they asked to keep the trailer on site!)

Anyone ever watch the movie "Army of Frankensteins"..... my recommendation is, if you come across it...... just keep on looking for something else, don't watch it... it makes "Plan 9 from outer space" and Gymkata look like it is loaded with Academy award winning performances

Aussie Park Boyz is the worst movie ever made.

And you could tell they were serious about it.

You can watch it on YouTube but it is super sweary

Got bored a work....

took an old laptop and installed Ubuntu
Usually I'd go with CentOS, but today I tried a new Linux install

Yes....I live a full and exciting life on the edge.... I may not even hold the handrails on an escalator the next time i'm on one

and if I thaw out by tomorrow, I need to get gas for my mower and see if I fixed the little push mower....or if the years of idle existence killed it.
the riding mower can't keep air in the tires. :(
