Boring times so maybe a highlight or 2. Usual hour workout at 9 am. Went out and swing the Superspeed clubs and my driver .

Some winter Sim league tonight as it continues to dump snow outside…👍

2nd leg of trip south to our only remaining house.

Not a good day so far...

My dad had to go to the hospital and my mom's car broke down going to the same. They're 3 hours away...oh BTW, one of our vehicles won't start.

Found out we have a shower leak and the installer refuses to address it. So now I'll have to find someone else or do it myself.

Plus to top it all off our dog has diarrhea and no way to get him to the vet...

I'd understand if it was a Monday, but it ain't....

This post isn’t just for you but one of the best places to get a battery is Rural King. I just bought a direct replacement for my ford f250 for $55 (with the core).

Heading to Newbury Park and see about fixing the carrot cooler. Then level put the new trailer when it's on the truck.

I’m like Walter with vehicle luck. Tire light came back on. I think it’s the Tpms in the spare tire .

Now today, like last Thursday when I was 2 hours from home and ended up at the Toyota dealer to fix the car…. I come out of an account an hour and a half away and the battery is dead. Luckily I had a set of crappy tools . And it’s 15 degrees out. At least I was im a Walmart parking lot

Typhoon hey, my 'luck' with vehicles isn't that bad... I just push the limits of parts...

sdandrea1 I recommend.22 suppressed.

Walterjn

[deleted] I will agree with this. Preferably with subsonic ammunition, in a bolt action rifle.

I'm usually only 5' away with the pellet gun. I sneak it out a small opening in the sliding doors. A rifle would be quiter though. 😎

You can get a pellet rifle for cheap - Gamo Whisper Silent Cat, .177 cal - about $150 or less. Has a "sound suppressor" as part of the barrel...Really good for those pesky varmints or geese...

Just found out my younger brother has stage 4 prostate cancer. Can we start this year over?

You should get checked. Sorry about the news, John. Prayers 🙏

Sorry to hear the news about your brother.

johnnydoom

Typhoon Very sorry to hear about your brother. Just when you're thinking you're down on your luck something comes along that makes everything else look small. I'm praying for your family.

Eguller

Very sorry to hear that. John - please make an appointment with a Urologist. Take the time. 👍

Typhoon

Eguller I emailed the doctor amd the nurse called me. She said my PSA I October was on the higher side of normal ( I’m not suprised, I eat like crap and no exercise) but it was up from the year before so today they’ll send a referral. I don’t have any prostate issues other than the weak stream so at first she said they’d monitor it… until I told her about my brother. Then she sai, “ well that’s different “…

Typhoon

Eguller The nurse called this morning to make the urology appointment. Now I said any day, any time… I work my job around it. I get March 20🙄.

So looking into what causes the condition I see I would basically have to stop eating. Apparently my diet consists solely on Highly saturated fats. So as I was reading that, they said cake with icing… I was right then eating an iced cinnamon roll🙄. So that shit ends now. Cheese, butter, red meat, gone. I’ll lose 20 lbs but…

Walterjn

Well, I got the carrot cooler fixed. The pair of fans did the trick.
I also got the horse trailer set up. Got some fresh shavings in it, got the 2nd spare into the tack room, got all the stuff I don't need out of the trailer and either tossed it, or found a place to keep it. Made sure that I have all the ties for the horses, in the proper places and orientation. I might have to pick up a few more ties just to have some spares on hand.

Having the new Pebble Sheen acid washed today. Final step before re-filling the pool.

Spent the week mining data for work analysis. More of the same ahead today. Snowfall from Monday is still on the ground and in the streets out there. That's as long as I can ever remember it standing in Mississippi. Started a little melting yesterday, but all froze again and forecast highs are only in the 20's the next two days. Looks like it will be next Tuesday or so before we get back to normal. Good opportunity to clear old food out of the freezers.

Bravopilot

johnnydoom Remember it snowed once for about 30 seconds when we lived in Biloxi, MS (Keesler AFB)

Typhoon So sorry to hear about your brother. Good thing you just went to the doc.
