The chiropractor had all sorts of good news for me tonight.  ::) I probably have gout in my big toes and Artie-itus in my thumbs.

Artie is not my friend, although he seems to want to make himself at home occasionally. Daily dose of Meloxicam seems to keep him from completely moving in.

I might be slow, but I'm mostly accurate.....

Yup....Knee,  thumbs and shoulders ....bursitis , Carpal tunnel  are Artie's first cousins.

Afternoon all.

rains is off and on.  Highway can't decide if it's open or closed in both directions. 

Been practicing with my bow past few days.  I'm entering into a drawing for the local archery elk tags.  I've got enough drawing points that I've got a good chance this year. ::)  There's six tags, and only 10-12,000 total applicants, and I'm in one of the top tiers, so I've got a 1 in 500 chance. :P

In the 20's and snowing here.was almost 60 yesterday ::) :o just looked out the window, street is snow covered now. I'll be shoveling walks tomorrow. We repaired a downed post lamp this morning, rusted off at the bottom. Then pumped out a pit under one of the oldest homes in here. installed a "jumper" in one of the new homes here. It allows  testing the water connections in the home before sale and installation of the radio water  meter. To finish the  day out, we loaded and unloaded about 30 or so cement block used to set up new homes. Set on block on "piers" and the axles and tires removed and sent back to the factory for reuse. We currently have three homes in various stages of set up and one oldie being torn down. Our other repair today wasn't. When I checked a couple things a few days ago, I inadvertently fixed the problem. A tripped GFI that didn't look like it was tripped. These particular homes don't have GFI's with indicator lights like our newest ones( different maker) ::) :-\

A balmy 72° (6:30 AM)  now,  headed for 79° high, guesser say' and some light coverage of rain  :-\ they say 50% by afternoon.
They claim 48° in the Morning,  73° as a high...pretty much the same all next week....

We've yet to get anything below about 41° tops ....been mild 2-3 years in row ....just a cool snap or three in that time  :-X

Course this is Central Fla. , but I've seen mid 20's some years ago.... well once maybe twice anyway

Already been out and shoveled the drive. Had maybe an inch plus. We'll see what the clubhouse/ barn is like in a bit( 2 90 ft. walks plus the entry veranda). :P

Morning all.

Had to make a city trip yesterday.  I needed to cash my check, but my bank is down there, so I tagged along with my sister, who is going down there for school.  Got that all done, then went to Sportsman's Warehouse to finish the tune on my bow.  I needed the nock point moved, which needed more precision than my needle nosed pliers offer.   ::)  I almost walked out of there with a Remington M700 Bicentennial model in .270 :o

Now off to work.  I had to take off early yesterday, so I have 45 minutes to make up today.
