OSUT 258: Better late than never....Summer Days are Near

[patience0830]

Same here, but dark and gloomy now.

Clouds rolling in here too.

Thay IS a chunk of change for a repair. Usually, bids like that make me think they don't really want that particular work. Don't think Mr. Steer really cares at this point but if you really like the jacket . . . .
For $300 I'd go hunting a nice newer jacket of some fancy performance fabric that was lighter and warmer all at the same time. North Face, Columbia, or American Giant perhaps

Hence, my dilemma.

I might have to drink this one over some more.

I still get those about the old house that no longer exist.

When I feel fluffy, I feign interest and tell them to drive by and make me a real proposal.

There's nothing there. Even the bones of our beloved pets have been displaced.

I have a 9.8 acre patch across the road they're always trying to buy. Offers start at $46k. My asking always starts @ $250k. Goes up from there.

On the rare occasion that I answer my phone and it's someone wanting to buy my house, I tell them that I do, and the price is $5 million, non-negotiable. They seem to lose interest at that point.

my walking friend called, time to walk the mutts, might go long sleeved shirt today, only 57 out

his dog goes nuts if he hears my voice or name over the phone

Morning everyone, cool crisp and clear here.

Morning all. Some rain overnight, not a lot. We were in a break in the line of storms. Thunder, lightening around us in every direction but not close - although of course close enough to upset our 1 dog. Supposed to have some sun, & wind a little later today.

Finishing my 2nd then off to PT.

We have a huge blue heron that lives close.
Also several retention ponds dotted around.

This morning he's making the rounds.
Love seeing that big boy cruise by!

One of our regulars was sitting out on shoreline few days ago. Never saw 1 sit like this before

 

[DoggyDaddy]

Mornin' wing and Hardscrable!

Just got one of those spam texts about my house. It said they saw from the county records that I owned the house at (my address) and asked if I had considered moving. Normally I just block the number and delete the text, but I was feeling cantankerous this morning, so I texted back, "Have you ever considered FATWO?" (but I didn't abbreviate it)

I called 1 back and engaged him in a conversation. I was nice, told him everything I own is for sale at the right price. How much would you offer me ? Of course he ask what my price was. Back and forth another time or 2 and he hung upon me.

Morning Hardscrable

 

[DoggyDaddy]

We're getting a light mist now. Wasn't expecting that.

Just finished some oatmeal, but made sausage and buttered toast to go with it.
Hitting several points along the spectrum today.

Good morning all.

Sat with the hummys this morning. Took me a minute to count what I could but came up with 26 already on the 6 feeders not counting the others buzzing around. Took til July last year to have those kind of numbers. I have a feeling I should've bought stock in sugar, going to need alot more sugar than last year I'm afraid.

Had a robin make a nest under the back deck and had 3 babies. 2 took flight this morning with 1 deciding to stay tucked in for now. Had to quickly grab the pup or he would've had a fledgling robin for breakfast.

Headed to sheriff's station for fingerprint cards shortly, had a CZicko talk me into a unloudener over the weekend.

Storms came through yesterday and dropped hail for about 3-4 minutes. Had me searching for those ruby slippers for a minute.

Cool temps and soggy this morning. Not the best but definitely better than snow.

Morning bcannon

 

[DoggyDaddy]

Mornin' bcannon! Wow, 26 hummies already! We've had one coming to visit ever once in awhile but we don't have a feeder out. I gave up on them because they just seemed to attract ants.
