TSCLT 10.0: Confucius say he hates a pussy!

I have some trimming to do myself but that won't be done until Feb. I don't like to mess with the fruit trees while the saps up. I hit the shade trees later in the year after the spring growth has more or less finished and I can tell which way the tree(s) want to go. As long as they aren't threatening property I let them be.
 
I gotta do the stuff at the porch. I planted it all when it was small, and it grew and is now too fucking close to the house.


:rolleyes:


I reckon if I cut it back, then it would be manageable to move out away from the porch.


In my spare time, of course . . . .

Planting too close is a common mistake. Hell, I sorta know what I'm doing and I still manage to get it wrong half the time. Or maybe my plants are all over-achievers. :)
 
Just to see what I could do. Factory new numbers are 45 mpg Highway, 48 mpg City. This was about 1/2 and 1/2. I drove slow and stupid got 60 mpg for that 6th gallon.

I knew that these plants would grow. George Taber azaleas. But I thought it would take 20+ years for them to get where they are in 12. Plus, wet as it's been this year, lots of this growth is new.


And I think they were that small when I planted them. They were layered plants from Mom's old house. They weren't very large when they came here.


Walmart had more people there than I would have thought, but I managed to get what I wanted and get home without being killed.


Or having to kill someone . . . .

I do it the old fashioned way:


I fill the tank to the same point. Yes, this means I am the world's great top-offer. Off-topper? I set the trip meter, and then I do it again when I next fill it. I then do the math on teh fone.


And I have a wee spiral book I write that shit it.


I also add maintenance, like air filters, oil changes, and the mileage at the beginning of each calendar year. :D

Good Morning! sort of. The cat who adopted us has tangled with something much bigger or badder than he. I called his true owners to see what to do (he was their cat after all). they are taking him to the vet but he's badly hurt and I'll be surprised if he makes it.

One of the local lynx set off the RING just a few minutes ago. They seem to be keeping the population of small critters from booming in the 'hood.
 
Back from today's errad. It was a Mission of Mercy, really. I had to buy coffee.


It was the Will of Allah that the Usual Place didn't have my Preferred Swill, so I had to go to the Better Store.


Which not only had my brand-n-flavor but also had gorgeous bone-in ribeyes for half price. So I scored three for the girls-n-me.


And bones for their worthless little shit dog . . . . :rolleyes:

Now that I've eaten about half of my Covid beef stash, it looks like a price of beef is coming down. I can get New York strips for $3.99 a pound.

Last night I tried to get fish tacos and found a Mexican food restaurant that said it was open till 10 locked up at 9. I was seriously considering voting for Joe Biden and then I realize they just closed the dining room early but the drive thru was still open.

False alarm!
 
I renewed my driver's license with the Commonwealth online, as is my option.


They asked me if I wanted my voter information updated. There was an option not to, so I didn't. Fuck 'em.


It'll keep me from voting for Joe Biden.


Hey, a man has got to know his limitations . . . . :rolleyes:

A friend managed to get his hands on a WWII vintage 45. Wants me to strip it down and clean it up. Superficially it looks OK, I'll see what it looks like when I get into the guts of it.
 
Happy Sunday!!!


Went to visit at J's last night. Her roomie cut my hair this morning, and it turned out all right.


Wrapping up stuff to hit the road tomorrow. Looking forward to it.


I'll wave to BT and JS on my way through . . . .

Yep, damned near done.


I'm moving the machinery around so it's where I want it sitting while I'm out.


I didn't sleep all that well last night and I'm looking forward to crashing soonish. Waiting for the dryer to finish the last load, some part of which I want to take with me.


Maybe some ice cream while I wait . . . .

Happy road-trippin' Monday!!!


Just about packed and much of the way loaded. My Traveling Companion doesn't seem to have had the idea sink in yet. Good thing he's pretty fearless.


Looks like there will be showers along the way, bt not a day of rain. No hurricane bits yet. There is a fog advisory out there for this morning, but I'm not there yet.


There's coffee here what needs drinkin' first . . . .

Hey, good morning.

I was down and out for the weekend.

Some sort of a nasty little virus; I still have a headache...
 
Covid-20????


I'm heading your way. We have another job there even closer.


You really should submit to coffee one Sunday if I wind up there.


I'll leave the cat at home . . . . :D ;) :rolleyes:
