OSUT 260: Remember, today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday.

[DoggyDaddy]

Afternoon all. Work got busy! But now it's the weekend.

 

[DoggyDaddy]

Indy will turn into sand dunes?

Not enough sand, but my forecast was spot on. We got about 5 minutes of off and on sprinkles and nothing else. There's another batch on the radar and my prediction is the same for it. Whatever comes will go north of Indy.

Yard needs mowed to tired to do it today.

 

[BeDome]

He went to Mancino's didn't he??

Not quite like that.
I meant run "away from screens" and go do some work.

Two hours worth trying to buoy and I'm sinking.

Brothers in arms, I have donned the knee pads!

Been watching our kitchen tile grout become darkened and untenable.
I got down to it!

Now all is "shiney" and white-like again.

It hurt! It hurts.

 

[BeDome]

But now Wife will be happily surprised.
She mentioned this a few times and planned to get it done this weekend, on her day off.

Nope! It's done!

Stanley Steemer and Lawn Pride are both coming tomorrow. Good timing since it's my day off.

Has any body herd from KG1 ?

Have not heard from KG1 since he went in for surgery.

 

[DoggyDaddy]

I went ahead and accepted their estimate for aeration and overseeding. I did some figuring, and with the cost of renting the aerator and buying enough seed for my lawn, I'd be spending probably close to $500. Their estimate was for $665 plus tax, so $711-ish total. Now will I do that every year? Probably not. But I just want to get the yard back in shape again to where maybe I'll be able to keep up with it better than I have this year.

I haven't either. I hope he's doing okay.

When I was at Walmart the lady in sporting goods told me alot of stuff was going on clearance. Scopes and knifes first. Was not sure if new stuff was coming in or going to stop selling them.

This is how it is when the last rays of the last days are within view.

We just have to pay some and let others do more for us.
The way you formulated it, you could save some coin drop, but then, the hard work would still fall to you to do.

If you need this, it's yours to do, either way.
I think you're making a wise choice.

Pay some and turn your back. Enjoy the result.

Well I had a great day at the range! This was especially true because I had the entire range to myself today! Nothing like being retired and going “midweek” and nobody is around!

 

[ed1838]

Walmarts down here still has guns and ammo.

 

[BeDome]

I haven't either. I hope he's doing okay.

Yeah, but with the various levels of what he only partially described, it could be a long minute.

Godspeed for KG1.

Yeah, the guy I was talking with at Lawn Pride yesterday is my age (well, almost exactly one year younger - he turns 64 in December and I turn 65) and he and I have that in common. We hate to pay someone to do what we are capable of doing, but like he said, it might cost him a week of pain and a trip to the chiropractor.
