Weekend thread!!!!!!!!!!!11


Recommended Posts

Changing the tractor over to mowing from snowblower. Service, oil grease etc.

Started the process Thursday but wife got me sidetracked...can you cut these branches, window-box brackets, help putting out the pool patio furniture?

So yesterday I said fuck it and went fishing....lol

Being retired has its benefits....lol

I want to do very little but my manager has different ideas lol. We we're away for three months and got home Thurs evening and too much to do now. The motorhome has to be unpacked, the boat has to be uncovered, the garage is a mess and the list is long.

Gotta fit and mortise new fancy pantry door my wife just had to have....for a house we are flipping.  :wall:  Gotta tile the second bath and rewire some hacky shit in the detached garage I know won't pass inspection.  I'll have The Masters on for scenery...and that's about it.  Storming here like there (I'm three hours from there)  so...ewwww.  My sticks are still up in MN so...I apparently have given up golf for good.  :dunno: 

Also, wife is working on a copious amounts of pigs in a blanket so, I'll eat my weight in those today.  I picked up a nice bottle of "Whistle Pig" to sip on.  Never had it so...we'll see.

That’s why I spent yesterday away fishing for the day. If I’m around she comes up with ideas like wouldn’t windowboxes look good under those 2 windows? Honey can you make 2 boxes to match the ones you made for the porch?

RUN AWAY AS FAST AS YOU CAN

Don't know about you guys....but I'm going snowmobiling!!!

You suck  :bc: 

We're either going to look at a boat, or digging out 5 feet of rocks to get to the pump that runs the little fountain feature in our back yard.  It shit the bed after only 2 years.

My neighbor gets back to his paving job in about a week too. He has been getting his shit done over the past week. He was telling me that he wouldn't mind doing something else, but he really likes having his winters off.

Opposite for me.  It took me years to learn I didn't have to have to rush shit before Monday.  My wife drove me nuts with the...."take a break....there's no rush" rhetoric.  I just didn't have it in me at the time to slow it down.

She was right though....but I won't admit that to her.

I was supposed to go back last week for 3 weeks of running to refinery, but a crude oil supply line went down so now go back the 19th, hopefully the plants pick up so I can avoid the shit hole known as United Refinery, Warren Pa.

New headlight and New non busted fenders for the sxs this am.  I am giving them no more than 2 trips before they are also cracked up . I just wish I did not enjoy running around old clear cut skidder trails so much

I tweaked my knee somehow last night. I just went outside for a short walk to see if it's any better. Nope, so back to stretched out and relaxing and hoping it gets better so I can work Monday.

I fucked up my knee about 5 yrs ago on a sled.  Now I have a ongoing deal if I twist wrong I get a fun week of sore inner knee .

Litteraly just happened again at the grocery store getting old scucks the big one lol

I should have gone boat shopping.  But repair is complete.  Didn't need a new pump, old hose fitting snapped at the pump, new hose, all set.  I feel beat like a rented mule.  Time for a stiff drink.  :bc:

I only replaced mine because the left headlight was shattered the fender only had 1 bolt hole still intact rest of it was zip tied on . So I got the sport fenders for it that are much wider to keep more mud off the windshield .

I fully expect the plastic to be scratched and busted with in the year .I run  Lots of new and old clear-cuts where I ride most and they are my fave once you understand how they are pretty much all layed out  there are lots of little technical trails throughout the perimeter and from cut to cut just off the main trucking loops around and thrugh them . Not much more than a 60in would fit in most . My 50 inch is pretty tight in a lot of them . But yeah shit happens like brush grown over cut off fallen trees usuaky at headlight hight lol .
