About to try soldering some cogs onto the brass ring I made.  Hopefully I can pull it off without messing it up.  I think it looks ok the way it is but it just isn't steampunk without the cogs.  lol.

About to head over and meet with my neighbor.  He has offered to teach me how to use his zero turn mower to cut the grass.

I am very thankful.  However, I still need to get a walk behind for the smaller cutting areas.

That is awesome with the zero turn. And I've done that with the push when I had a bigger yard; push for smaller areas, and the rider for the main part.

It was great.  We did a tag team.  I cut for an hour, until it ran out of gas (that allowed me to cut all the fronts, mine and Trene's side lots, my other neighbor's back yard and half of the back yard of the HomeHouse which usually takes 3 hours with my AWD walk behind), then my neighbor filled the machine and finished the second half of the HomeHouse backyard and my back yard.

 

He and his wife have been trying to find a way to pay me back for trimming up their yard and cutting back over a decade of brush and overgrowth.  Since he knew my mower suffered a catastrophic failure, he offered me the use of his. 😊

 

With the coming rains, this should buy me enough time to get something working by the next clear day.

About to give my brother a ride since his ride just died in the HomeHouse driveway.

Apparently, my brother's wife moves as fast as I do.  He was picked up and at home within 10 minutes of talking to me.

🤣

Now I'm about to log the boy's attendance for today since he just finished schoolwork.  We need a discussion on time management...if he can actually hear what I'm saying and not what he thinks I'm saying.

Now that the boy is off on a weekend retreat with the Youth Group community, I'm about to do a clean up and restock of the area so things will be set for when he gets back.

Back in from handling outside everything and replacing the flywheel on the mower.  Now I'm about to go get cleaned up before I start working on the boy's attendance for today.

Back in from appointments, labs, running errands, setting up everyone with lunch, vehicle troubleshooting, and rescuing a tent from the wind fury of Mother Nature.  Now I'm about to take a break/nap before the end of the day wrap up...then I might eat some dinner.

About to head out to make some noise.  Getting all of the yard tools up and running.

 

I decided to wait a bit due to what appeared to be slightly inebriated activity out there earlier.

      How Are You Feeling? (cont'd)

      By TronRP · Posted

      ~~~~~ Yeah, thank you for the check-in.   Happy to say it was all a misunderstanding.  But she pulled out her "ghetto" and that's when things went South.  I get very professional minded when I enter into situations like that because when someone starts bring the court into conversations, I'm in court 2 times a year, every year, so don't go there with me because I will get legal all over you.   She did try to change what she thought she might have said, but I had to call her on it because it's all in written text.  Then she apologized and we were able to have a decent conversation.   I know I joke about me talking so much that people don't hear what I say except for keywords that they are looking for, but that is exactly what happened here.  She heard "payment", "money" and "help out".  It was crazy.  I literally had to have the entire conversation all over again, but I definitely condensed it to only address those 3 words.   Things are back on track, but I emphasized that if she every needed clarification for anything, please say something first instead of jumping to conclusions, then questioning that conclusion, then answering that conclusion, then getting upset at the answer and taking it out on someone who doesn't have a clue what the San Juan Hill just happened.   But this is exactly the reason I do everything with a paper trail.

      I'm glad  that yesterday's day at work is long gone now. There was a very strong unusual energy that I felt, and couldn't get done with the day fast enough. It wasn't  the job at all. I just felt like I really needed to keep my mouth shut, to keep me from getting in situation(s) that probably wouldn't have ended well for me.
