Old, Beginner, Trainwreck

I feel same way. I mow six acres each week as well as the associated weed eating and push mowing.

Good luck on the tires those large tractor tires can get pretty expensive.

Wow! I’m glad I only have 1 1/2 acres to mow…lol

Took a couple hours this afternoon to work on my rack. Cut the cross members down and fixed the floor issue. Should be ready to go in the morning…Yay!!!
Caught a possum in the live trap last night by my chicken pen. Jed saw it in there and was so excited. " you know I love possums, I can’t wait to find it a new home!" :smirk:
So, for the first time ever! I helped relocate a possum. :joy:
Glad nobody saw us, that would ruin my bad reputation.

You sure it wasn’t a cat???

Bahahahaaaa! I guess it was. It certainly matched the description, especially the " not very friendly part"!!!

Trashed from yesterday. Not the workout, but from work. It was so hot, the thermometer on the thermostat was pegged out, and she wouldn’t turn the A/C on…lol Crazy, old, bat, but I still love her. Where else would I get used bread…lmao!

Well, that was interesting. Might as well have some coffee and a snack since everybody is awake now.That was some intense freaking lightning! Hope it’s over.:disappointed_relieved:

Almost May and that’s our worst TStorm and Tornado time of year here in Alabama.

Ours too. It was pushing some straight line winds when first hit, enough to move the new trampoline. But the skies stayed lit for a solid 25 mins. Thankful most of it was cloud to cloud. Now it is beautiful… go figure.

Holding a block in each hand counts, yes.

Careful down there.

Hmmmm… well that’s a thought! Maybe I will try it in the morning, after I have slept a few hours, or ten. I wish!
Thanks. Snapped a couple of telephone poles and tore up a few trees, other than that, it’ all good.

I spent this afternoon watching baby tornados try to form in Omaha.

Ooh nice! They’re so cute when they’re babies. Oh wait! No, no they’re not.

Having moved here from Oklahoma, I have had my tornado quota for a few lifetimes. One about 1/8th of a mile north of the house. One 1/2 a mile south of the house. One that, miraculously, was heading for the house, picked up, and set back down a mile past. Those being the near misses.
Okies are good folks. They even have drinking games for storm season.

Must have been living right. Where is here?

Iowa, of all places. I live about 2 miles from the IL border. My brother lives about 2 miles across the border.
I wasn’t willing to move to IL. So, Iowa was the closest I could get.

I don’t blame you blame there. IL has never been one of my favorite places. Still not far from tornado HQ…lol
