Good morning, pretty day here too, good day to work out in the yard but I'm at the office. Just got back from my encocrinology doc, no answers there although he did order a bone density test that I should have had years ago. None of the folks I emailed Friday have responded so in a hold pattern with them. I do have a couple other things to work on though.

You wouldn't know it's fall here, either. Was almost ninety here today, we were in the pool even. Rested today, or at least I did, he finished up a car and got it out of the shop since it apparently has baby mice in it. Get paid and move on he said. Hoping to feel good tomorrow and get some cleaning done, supposed to rain. Makes for a nice day of porch sitting, but I got stuffs to do, then back to the grind Monday.

Ah yes, poor AI, can get pretty faces decent but still adds extra fingers to people lol. But hey, I'm probably the only one here who even saw fingers, amirite?
I also don't need to get started on politics, I see evil on both sides and I find myself somewhere in the middle. I don't think there even should be political parties at all, just pick the candidate and vote. Political parties and the divisions they create are the root of the problem besides greed. Tee, that show in Branson would've freaked me straight out. I've not been there in several years, been meaning to get back that way, maybe in the spring or something when it's not so hot out. It's not that far from us, 4 hours. Then after can take a nice trip up to Springfield and travel some pretty backroads. Matter of fact, that sounds like a good round trip for us, we can loop over and see our friends near Jeff City. Been a busy day at the office today, working on a lime yellow color change on a Corolla, two DARE police vehicles and a scattering of other assorted little things. Ready to go home. Took the Rover to get windshield fixed on the policy we bought and he fixed the bad spot allright then caused it to split hairline two inches up and down from there. Didn't even bother to tell me till I left and came back, then said that it happens sometimes. I will be calling my company back Monday. I can barely see it, but I DO see it and I'm not happy. A new aftermarket glass is about a grand, an authentic Rover one is probably higher. Dude did say the only difference is the legit one has the name printed on it whereas aftermarket don't, said they're made at the same place. I'm wondering if he is just trying to get a larger replacement job out of me. And the carwash blew off my license plate, pulling plastic bolt anchor right out of the hole and now I have a big ass scratch back there. Can't win lately.

Ahhh yes, valium - that wonderful anti anxiety pill that calms the mind. Works like a charm too. But with my fatigue lately, I'd be in the cocaine line

good morning, sun is out here but it rained yesterday and some during the night. Saves me a round of plant watering. Was gone all day yesterday to two diff appointments in Little Rock at UAMS. Trying to get my hip figured out. Mri first appt, they had their crap all messed up then follow up with doc's PA around 4. Made for a late time getting home since that's a couple hours away. I feel like Tommy, I had 7 appts booked between last week and end of Oct. Sorry you're having to go through the hassles, Tommy. Mine told me I was just fine, bmi was fine then turns around and tells me to lose 20 before surery, yet then told me MRI shows I have a labral re-tear on my hip and other muscle/tendon tears. So, say whatt??? How are you supposed to exercise when you kinda can't? And, no matter what I do, weight don't come off. I can bench press a buick but can't lose fat so I have an endo visit Monday. I mean I'm JUST getting over having a kidney yanked out so they need to ease up on weight and crap for a bit. Getting old, tore up parts, menopause and messed up hormones suck.

Good morning, sun is out but cool in the mornings. Hummingbirds are swarming the feeders I guess they're getting read to buzz off soon. Yes, Matt everything is high now, going to eat takes half a paycheck and groceries keep me busted. Trace that all back to those flipping burgers wanting $15 an hour who don't understand trickle economics. Product costs more to make therefore product sells at a higher price. Rent is stupid high, you name it.
Have people coming to discuss a pontoon wrap, and my DARE cops due in with a pickup, we'll see what the day brings.

Good evening, not much going on around here this weekend. Doc appt Friday, then worked half day, yesterday we hit a few flea markets and a tiny car show, today he worked a bit for his body shop friend next town over and I laid around all day. I have so much to do and just am overwhelmed with it so I sit and stare at it. One day, one day. tomorrow nothing planned, I do need to get laundry put away and a few other things tho. Loaned section 8 cousin $20 I'll never see again and that's been about it.
My circle is smaller too, I din't really realize that I was old until I noticed a lot of the people I know are dying. Sad. We have one elder left in our family , my aunt and then it's us cousins and their kids. Depressing.

Good afternoon, sunny and 95 here, but pool is too cold to get in. Doc appt this morning and work this afternoon, ready to go home and relax. Junk sales, car shows and all sorts of stuff going on around here this weekend. Arron has a motor job lined up but maybe I can talk him into getting out tomorrow instead.

Good afternoon, sunny here, got my work done for today, waiting on replies from customers . Congrats on the new ride Tee, any photos?
Our whole town is sick to death of SXS and 4-wheeler riders. They're noisy as hell, sounds like a crop duster buzzing your front door over and over. One every now and then don't bother me but 40 trips a day does. Gets on Arrons' nerves fierce, he hears motors and crap all day he wants peace and quiet when he gets home. you call the cops, then the cops tell them and they harrass you, can't win. This junk just started last couple years. It's illegal in town, matter of fact, per the state it's illegal even on county gravel roads. I'd like to see DHS take some people's kids away from them, stickers clearly say not under 16, and they race around here since our block is a circle, saw one girl right in front of me hauling ass and my neighbor was backing out, didn't see her and she bout flipped it trying to stop to avoid hitting him.

geez, that much for those repairs??
Sunny today but high of only 80 so far. Means pool water is getting too cold to be in. I feel like I've not been in it hardly it's either hot as the surface of the sun outside or raining or something is going on and I'm not home. Slow day at the office, not complaining. Dont' feel well, headachy and like fevery but no real fever. Not covid, test was negative, not sure what I got but keeping to myself.

Good morning, been MIA sort of all weekend. Tee that car looks horrendous. Hope you find a suitable replacement, no way I'd take that one back after the water pouring in. Water pouring here today earlier, clearing off now. Got up to get hair done Friday then ran errands everywhere. Thought about going to see aunt in hospital, figured I'd run up this weekend, well she passed Friday afternoon. We had to go pick up my MCM Majestic fireplace from my friend's shop an hour away SAturday, got home too late to do anything, was on the phone to the cousins a bit. Sunday they called early and I ended up over there helping them sort stuff and clear her apartment, got a lot done. Still a lot to do. Yesterday I tried to keep to my self and rest and phone kept blowing up. Some of the family never calls unless they want something and that, of course, was the case. My other check drawing cousin wanting to borrow this, or that or do I have any pills she can have - resounding no to all. Funeral is today so I'll head out of work about noon thirty and head that way. I need to get back since I'm the only one over here.

Good afternoon, sun is out here and it's hot out. Not busy at work today, no complaints by the boss, he's buried as it is. I do have three more pending though, don't tell him. Vette club meeting tonight at our local cajun place. He's not open this time of year but will set up a buffet for us. Concerned about parking, it's not the biggest lot and he shares it with 3 others. Might should've drove the Rover instead.
And I agree, we can't get rid of Brandon fast enough and probably can't fix the damage. Geezers that old don't need to be in office - look at McConnell, case in point.

Good evening, storms here during the night again, we do need the rain and glad to have it. Hurricane forming on the east coast indicates we may get rain from that too. We'll take it. My nanner trees need it as well as my yard. Been a slow day here, not complaining. Dont' feel too hot, some bug going around, plus ragweed allergies are hammering me right now too.
Arron done my dishes for me while he was home at lunch, one more thing off my list. Bless his heart

Working outside always wears me out but since surgery seems it's worse. Arron said when he got his kidney out Army wouldn't take him back. Said he'd get dehydrated and overheated faster than folks with both. Makes sense I reckon.

Good morning, cooler here, rained 3 times yesterday, and the last one was a doozie. We needed it badly, more predicted today too. Had a busy weekend with work in the yard Sat and Sun, and yesterday I was wore out and hardly moved, except to make chicken and dumplings for supper. Tommy keep up on the doc appointments, and get stuff checked out. Seems like I'm at one doc or another every time I turn around lately. Getting old sucks. Marcus I'm sorry about the dog, I do hope he comes back. Did you perhaps try putting out one of y'all's dirty shirts? Their sense of smell is insane and maybe he'd smell it and go there? Saw that somewhere that someone else tried it with success. Being 16 though, that was a great life of being loved. I do hope you find him.

Good morning, bout the same temps due here too. Nothing on my plans except getting coffee , I have my '52 presto superspeed at work as we speak. Getting my old shiny percolator out on the weekends is a treat. Need to run next town over and take a weedeater to a friend of mine, she bought my spare one. Won it in a $5 ticket draw a while back, barely used it. It's an Echo curved shaft, just right for her. And, perhaps to Lowes. Arron is pissed off at the gas powered things lately, carbs stopping up, lines rotting off so he's in the mood I think to get me that 56V kit I've been looking at. I need hedge trimmers, blower and pole saw. I don't need hedge trimmers as big as that kit has but I'll take it.

Good afternoon, That was one heck of a write up Tommy! I wish I was closer so I could bring my plant friends and come buy a bunch. I always come home with plants when we go to the beach.
I came to work today for some extra cash and right before I was leaving Josh texted me that I might want to stay home unless I want to smell a dead rabbit all day. A rather huge one got in the back room and died and they just found him this morning. Pretty well cleared out now tho. Need some grocreies when I leave here, figured it'll be crowded. I just figured out yesterday it was a holiday weekend. The grocery store across the street sells whole filets for like $9/lb so I have two waiting on me. I'll process them this weekend and get them in the freezer.

Dadgum this whole summer is gone already. I've barely been in the pool, it's either been too hot or raining. Surgery set me back also. I'm heading into fall kicking and screaming, I want summer forever. Some of my plants are just now getting happy after the harsh winter we had.
Started off almost cold this morning but got up to 97 yesterday so figure it will be the same today. Hoping to catch up on sleep this weekend and get my yard work done one morning when it's cool out.

Good morning, sent proof to the client whose design I did yesterday afternoon, approved in 5 minutes. They still have his other truck across street to finish, big truck plus camper shell and roof/bumpers wrapped too. There's a second truck after that one from my roofing guys, then this truck then a fourth other one, same roofing guys. Hope everyone who has friends/family in the Florida path are allright. It was headed where we just came from but saw it hand changed. Tee, what about your BIL?
Warming up around here, I need it cool so I can do yard work, but didn't feel like it when it was cool last weekend, plus we were gone one of the days. I'm told with one kidney the intolerance to heat and humidity now might be permanent. Arron was told when he tried to re-enlist that he was a no-go for the same reason. Makes you dehydrate faster and overheat faster and they were sending him to Iraq so he was done at that point. He wanted to get his 20 years in. I figure I can work up to it a bit at a time and just be more attentive. I'm bad to get busy and not realize how hot or dehydrated I get till it's bout too late.

Good afternoon, been kinda busy here, was expecting a guy in to discuss his trailer and instead a dude shows up with a Sierra, have a Chebby coming later. I have the Sierra ready to proof but I'll do that in the morning, don't want him to know I can do chit that fast. I'm ready to go home. The place we just left from Vaca is a direct hit for the hurricane, mandatory evacuations started yesterday. One way in, one way out, feel sorry for those folks.

Good morning, what's left of it. Ran my hiney off Friday, doctor, visit with mayor, then by office to take care of something, then to walgreens, then across town for this, back across for that etc, and then home. Wore out. The truck said 104 all day and I believe it. Yesterday our Vette club took a 1.5 hour drive to a nice steak house in Holly Springs, MS. Stopped for dessert on way home, my fault, and ran into a horrific storm. Temp showed 107 midday, then 77 after the storm. Literally everyone on the interstate was pulled over or hid under something, even the truckers. We came home, rested, had a cocktail and watched tv. Supposed to be pool day today but it's overcast out. I don't think anyone is really complaining with the hot sun and heat we've had this past week. Got plumbers coming Monday, my only day to myself I'm sure that'll ruin my day, and it's my fault, I'm the one that scheduled it.

good afternoon, hit triple digits here again today too but it don't feel as hot as it did yesterday. Humidity I suppose. Was out mid day getting my 3 month post kidney ct scans and doc visit. Got the all clear today so we do it all again in 6 months. She said he'd check me periodically, I was supposed to see him today she didn't know why they sent her in. Should see him next time. Do have a "non obstructive" stone on other kidney said they'd just keep an eye on it. elevated BP, high to me but didn't seem to be a concern to her. I see my PCP tomorrow. This getting old mess is bullcrap.
I've not cruised in several years, Hurricane Hugo to be exact. Too peopley for me. But would like to take a couple again, bang for the buck kinda thing. Is there one that don't have kids? I absolutely do not want to be anywhere near anybody's loud kids.

Good afternoon, been a busy morning here. A section8 ghetto thug showed up at the business about 4am and broke a window and hotwired a customer's car and stole it. They've since found the car, not the perp tho. Car was a couple towns over from here. Been a wild morning. Plus I had a trailer dropped off too and a dozen phone calls. Unusually busy day today.
Hot as all get out here, 100 and feels like he surface of the sun. I'm bout to take a break and eat my lunch.

Nope, they don't want to hear logic. Our sun is a star and is aging. Been MIA all weekend, worked Friday for extra cash, didn't feel good all weekend and just sat around Saturday, although I had big plans to deep clean the house. sunday got a few things done then sat in the pool, just too freaking hot out. Supposed to be 100 and 101 respectively tomorrow and Thursday. Have a school vehicle due in today for wrap discussion, guessing they'll get it here the hottest part of the day. I need to bring a change of clothes up here in a go bag for days like this if I have to be outside. I can't stand having to sit here all funky. It's gonna be hotter than a wore out Dewalt blade cutting off a catalytic converter this week.

aliens. always blame the aliens. or the government.
One of those two will always be the cause of strange things happening. sun is out today and consdierably warmer than the last couple days. Was hoping for cooler weather so I could work outside some and get caught up out there, don't want to but need to. Slow day at work today, all my projects are approved and sent to the print que. I'm bout to go up front where they have Pawn Stars on the tv and see what a Devo hat sold for.

Glad car is fine but burning trans fluid is one of the worst smells I have ever encountered, second would be axle grease

Good afternoon, cool here again too, we're not complaining. Got proofs out to people, waiting on them to reply,need a quote for one and I'm waiting on that. Also waiting on my Rover part, be glad when it's back, not a fan of his truck at all. Nothing much happening here

Good mornin, trying to get caught up at the office, someone at least filtered out a bunch of the junk mails, have a couple of things in there I need to tend to. Have a dude with a Harley coming soon wanting something to cover up a paint blotch on the tour pack, bragging to me about how expensive it is and yadda yadda. He's one of *those* (insert eye roll)
![]() Couple other little things and I have a ton of missed calls. Only 4 left messages and 3 of those were spam. I'll call the one back, if they didn't leave me a message then it must not be too important or they got someone else to handle it. Have the Rover at Arron's dealership for a new door actuator. When I got the thing packed to leave, and tried to lock it, started beeping at me and alarm going off. He got in the "message center" and found which thingamajig was the problem. I can get an ebay part for 100 and him fix it but we did get the warranty on there aftermarket so he's doing it at the stealership. Part there is 500, dang. Well, at least with a job ticket, he will get paid for fixing it. I'll only be out 250 total. Not happy to be driving this tank of a truck of his though

Good afternoon, overcast here with sun out now and then, cool front coming through for a few days, we need it. Might get some stuff done next weekend if it's cooler and less humid.
Amen to that song, heard it for the first time today. Of course Rolling Stone magazine put a negative slant on it, "extreme right finds theme song" or something like that. Well, the song ain't lying. RS must support government overreach and child abductions? Anyway, off the box, headed back outside to sit a while while I have one last day off.

Good afternoon, made it home just after midnight last night, enjoyed the week. Yes I want to stay there , depressed about being home. Home don't feel like home, the beach spot does.
Rained good earlier today, weve not done much but sit around. Of course on my beach group pages from our area, I see the water is nice today, the day after we get home. I tried to get him to wait a week, but he said he'd done had it scheduled. Oh well, it was nice and quiet and peaceful anyway. Glad you found your pup, marcus, yes we do what we have to. When our old girl got out I fetched her muddy butt in my vette. Got the car nasty but it cleaned up just fine and she was home safe. Miss that hound

Good afternoon, happy late anniversary Tee, something to be proud of.
Been extremely hot here this week but wind off the water makes a nice afternoon of sitting out. Been getting a short rain bout once a day . We visit here at the cape each time we come to PCB, opted to stay this time due to less crowds. Nearest beach sitter is at least 50’ away if they are there at all. We rented a house here to avoid crowds, condos, screaming kids and ghetto music. It’s nice and peaceful and at night it’s so dark! Had no idea there were that many stars and can see the Milky Way even. Been a good week, dread heading back.

So sorry for your loss Tommy. At least you were there to provide a happy life.
Speaking of which, I think I found the best seat in the house here. Outside ‘bar’ area and made myself a pink grapefruit mint tequila thingy .

Good afternoon, we made it to the beach house we rented about 3 yesterday, did well on time. Didn’t realize we change time zones just up the road so that confused me for a bit. Brack in the back yard bay in the front yard. We’d love to come back here, not crowded.we’re on the St Joe Peninsula or Cape San Blas as they call it. We’ve visited but this is our first stay.

Good morning, headed to the beach, prayers for a smooth trip we sure need it. I got the Rover all cleaned and packed and the alarm started going off for no reason. Wouldn’t let me lock it. Up at 2am moving it all to the truck. Frustrated. Ready to get where I’m going and relax. Y’all have a good one.

I'd like to own a few pastures and plant a ton of wildflowers out there in them and set me a little one room cabin underneath a tree for me a little hideout.
It was unbearably hot yesterday bout 100 and humidity bout the same, today much cooler and tried to rain earlier, storm clouds but no real rain. we need it. And I need that bird feeder. i also need a new pellet gun so my squirrel problem will diminish while my freezer stock increases. Got the Rover cleaned up yesterday, all packed up today ready to roll in the middle of the night. Annnndddd of course it can't be that simple. Some problem, alarm started going off for no reason earlier. Tried to lock it and it barked at me, wouldn't lock, then when it did , alarm went off again, drove me nuts and I'm sure the neighbors weren't happy. Googled it and found that I'm on in about 87 million folks having that same problem. All over what looks to be a $18 part, a hood sensor latch. The thing thinks someone is trying to open the hood. Read where it can be bypassed by pulling out the two wires on lower left and twisting those together. I can order a part and looks like something I can do myself. Arron will be home soon with his scanner and he'll look it over. I really hate to unpack all that shit if I don't have to

Taste like chicken -
Good morning, what's left of it. Busy day again, and here I thought I could hide out and rest in here today. Everybody spazzing. And, I have another fleet vehicle coming today sometime from my roofing guys and one of them is about to be mad. Have one with a truck that wants his installed first, and one with an Expedition who was printed first. Expedition dude is new hire, truck dude has a few years in. Not my circus, not my monkeys but the boss of the outfit says do the new hire's ride first. And, for the first time in my life I believe, I just got told "I'm sure glad you are going on vacation next week, I'm covered up and I do not need you here lol". Hell if he'd pay me I'd take two weeks together. Can't remember the last time I was able to do that.

Good afternoon, started out overcast and cool this morning, warmed up some and the sun came out. Been busy as all get out at work, seems the public has found out I'll be gone and it's dogpile on me week around here. I have owner backed up on installs for the next couple weeks at least. Plus he has security film installations at the schools around here and one church. Bout to wrap it up and head home for more stuff to do. Need to get the beach gear assembled, washed if it needs it, clean out the Rover, have a list made for the next few days.

Gonna go with what Ferrari
busy day at work, ran myself ragged. Folks must know Im bout to be out of town for a week. Had a 2500 Ram quad, 10" lift with camper shell show up today of course had to measure it in horrid heat and humidity. I hate that crap, first thing in the morning and need another shower and nowhere near home so just stuck like that. Cousin across town had a tree randomly fall, jerked power box off the house, electric company shuts power off for "safety" and here it's almost 100 out, they're both disabled, nowhere to go, no money, they've not got their checks yet. Aunt works but cousin's son robbed them blind cause he's on dope. And somehow I end up in the middle of that crisis. Always do when they have a crisis, but when I have one, they're nowhere. Plants are all watered, food is made, Arron is still working and I'm bout to go to bed.

Good afternoon, very hot and humid here again today. Had housework and yard work planned, nothing has been done, just not into it. Still sleepy. Ran to Little Rock yesterday for a whole body bone scan, that was an all day event and Friday traffic coming home at 530 in Jacksonville put me over the top. Then I stayed up too late watching tv. I dont even want to go get in the pool. We'll see what the day brings, later y'all

Good morning, hot here today already too, sun out and not a cloud in the sky. Got an F550 utility dropped off today from Dyersburg, he saw some work of mine elsewhere and they referred him to me. I've already sent him a proof, maybe today we can make some minor adjustments and git 'er dun. headed to Little Rock tomorrow for the all day bone scan event. Check in at 11, then goof off for 3 hours then go back for scan. I'll be bringing my favorite Who Dats Cajun takeout home. He's about halfway home, I found him by accident many years ago, just a white food trailer with picnic table out front and now it's a nice large restaurant. He still works the place along with his family and it's a common occurrence for him to wander up, sit at your table for some small talk, check to see that your food is good and recommend other things. Not too many of those places left.
Let's make it a good day

Good afternoon, been hot here and busy. Had to go to the next town over to measure some windows for a school for graphics,I normally don't go do that but we're all covered up and just doing what we can. I have three wraps already headed to print, he's slammed with other stuff and I've got things coming in, plus one more due any day, a utility truck. Did I say it was hot? Did more yard work last night, weeded the last two flower beds, one full of lava rocks so my hands hurt today. I still need to sweep all around pool and pick up some things/clean up then Ineed to start in on the house again. Seems you can write your name on everything in there. Work is never done.

Not sure how but think there needs to be a law passed or something that requires the person who's yard the tree is in to pay deductible at least and then the insurance company cannot hold it against you for that claim. Used to be 'act of God' things didn't count against you but not now.At least not for us. We got cancelled over a tiny claim. Of course now, house note is higher since we switched but I also added more coverages so some of it is my fault.

Good morning, been covered up at work already, nobody should know I'm here but some smoke signal must have gone off.
I worked in the yard all day Saturday, havent' been able to since before surgery. Way overdid it, but I go a lot done. Got all the hedges around front and the side of the house trimmed, flowerbeds all across front cleaned out, all along side cleaned out, plus two others that are off to the side out front. Trimmed our bradford pear tree with my new baby chainsaw so Arron could mow under there easier, plus our weeping mulberry needed a haircut. Hauled all that to the curb, even used my blower to clean up my mess. I have a yard trashcan packed full. And, Arron mowed last night and blew crap back on the driveway I just blew off. Men. When I got done , I took a shower, sat on the couch and passed smooth out. Head hurt I could tell I did too much but it has to get one. I still like 2 flower beds out back to clean out and move some plants around. And, the house needs cleaned again, I'm never done it seems like. ARron has been busy with the '57 that turned into a nightmare and has other waiting. He's worn out too. Tee I would find some way to get my $1000 out of them. Negligence of their trees falls on them not you. Insurance says it's your issue since it's on your property but the tree isn't. I have a neighbor that way too and whatever of hers is hanging over my side is about to be cut smooth off.

Good morning yall. In the office on my off day, I'd rather be home asleep. Supposed to storm like all getout at noon again today. Beyond sick of it. I'm all good with a rain, but blowing, hail and crap we're sick to death of here. Tee, there's some here I'd like to tell to go to hell too, but need to be nice to the customer. Except, one the tint guys and myself all ended up on the phone with, tint manager said if he called again he was gonna tell him off. Entitled mindset is the root of the problem most of the time. Hoping for a calm day today. Can't check email, Yahoo is down, can't troll FB apparently that's not working either. This forum working fine, plus one other that I'm in seems to be working allright. Weird.

Matt I have some real doozies. Have one in an email battle with me over a price to "install" a banner, guessing none of his 25 employees can stand on a stool and loop a grommet over a nail about head high. We don't do that, but said we would for a fee since he asked. Then he tried to cut 2/3 off our fee. We don't work for free. I told him I'd take off 10% but that's our hourly shop labor rate and we don't do that anyway Allegedly he's mailing me a check since his store is here and he's in Houston at a corporate office.

Happy birthday Tommy!
Overcast here today but its' not raining at least. Had a last minute client show up at 10 till 5 yesterday with an Expedition to be wrapped, have that ready to print already. They have several vehicles, waiting on approval for two others, they're dragging their feet then send this one over. Oh well, whichever they want first I don't care, just git 'er dun. Need to get nails done after work but I hate sitting there for that, but these are about had it. Need to also find a vaca spot for august 5 if Arron will make up his mind where he wants to be, I'll handle the logistics of the rest of it, as usual. (Logistics: the detailed coordination of a complex operation involving many people, facilities, or supplies. - 'complex operation' being the operative phrase in this situation)

good morning, what's left of it. Rainy looking out side today but none yet. Did seem cooler this morning. Storms were horrible yesterday, high winds, hail , the whole nine yards. Lots without power, one tree on our street uprooted. We've had so much rain it's a wonder they all weren't. We got a solid inch in the short amount of time the storm was here.
And, my redneck skeeter screen remained in place. Not where I can screen in a patio right now, and not gonna try in this humidity, so came up with an alternative. $20 Had the track up already from having plastic up this past winter. Took plastic down then bought the mesh for summer . I also ordered a magnetic doorway that I’ll add in with quick hand stitch but it hasn’t come in yet. I have not weighted this at bottom , there’s a good 1.5 feet extra but I can easily if I need to . To hold at top I folded mesh over a couple times then poked cording in there so my clips would hold better but the cording really isn’t necessary. Note: those mesh things that fit over umbrellas would work too plus they have water tubes on bottom to add weight. I chose not to get them done I was trying to go the cheaper route and I needed 95” minimum height, most of those things are onlu 7-7.5' tall. Between 65' of screen at 10' tall, and the magnetic opening, I'm out about $50. Attach file: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()
