Morning, everybuddy. Woke up at 5:30, thought an hour or two more would be good, but never went back to sleep. Got noisy around midnight with thunderboomers, wind and hard rain, no yard werk today, I don't care for mud. The cool down is starting today, probably another 4 weeks and time to put the bikes to sleep. Spent more on insurance than gas this summer, never got a Harley out and the Honda is a gas sipper, think I only filled it twice this year. Been watching the ads, if I find a good winter deal might get a newer bike or two. Only the sportsters and Honda have been reliable, need to think about saying goodbye to the old stuff next year. Been saying that for a few years now...

Morning Gents.
Looks like a free day here. Job list was yesterday.
Temps down in the 50s after storms rolled through last night.

Still watching Pacific. Reminds me of Pearl Harbor and that Vietnam movie with Mel Gibson, too much emotional stuff, fast forwarding through a lot of it. Took a break last night and watched a Korean comedy.

torn meniscus in the right one and it's my good left one that is hurting me now.
Don't have that kind of damage, but spent too much time on my knees crawling around in airplanes among other abuses. Gardening is way too much time on my knees now, started raised beds last year, will be little or no stuff planted in the ground next year. Getting hard to stand up from a chair without help from my arms, knees aren't just weaker but it can hurt, too. I know what I need, losing the 50 extra pounds I'm carrying from my pre-45 year old weight.

I hear ya. Once again our garden turned to crap.
she always says I’ll look after it. But lo and behold the weeds overtake everything. I prepared and planted. That’s it fo me and gardening. I have a lawn to mow.
