Well! I'm up and moving today just fine.
No ill effects from the yard adventure.
This is how it looks now. Still trying to decide whether to put 3 flowering shrubs there or just a bunch of wildflowers.
It still needs some work.
.. and a picture of the sky last night as I was going to work.
I've added it to Farcebook and considered using it as my background.
Another beautiful day in store.
Someone slap me for being so happy.

Dr appointment today. Scouts this evening.
I love when the turkeys are in the yard. They are fun to watch.
Tried and failed to start the Ventrac lawn tractor. Tried and failed to charge the battery. Ran to Tractor Supply, traded in the old core, $98 later I walked out with a new battery. Tractor started up and ran fine once the new battery was in. Got a good bit of the lawn around the house done but stopped for dinner.
Church lady tamale dinner! I bought 2 dozen of them, 12 chicken and 12 pork. But tonight just 2 of the chicken tamales for me.

We don't have wild turkey up here. They do in s Ontario.
Had physio this morning then went to pick up supplies to start working on the fords cab corners. I have yet to see a ford up here older than 5 years old without rusted out cab corners.

Actually the Ford has been better than my old Chevy for the mostpart. Doesn't matter what brand it is. If it has tires up here, eventually it's going to rust. Chevies rust over the wheel wells and through the rocker panels. Same with dodge.
Actually I have no skin in this game. I own Jeep, VW, Audi and Nissan at the moment.
But I don't mind stirring the pot
We had a flock last year that wondered through our yard daily. I haven't seen any this year. Yet.
Great. We'll be lucky to hit the water by june this year. Last year we opened camp third wee6in April. This year it'll be the third weekend in May.
It's 2am and I haven't slept due to excruciating back pain.

That was my afternoon yesterday. I mowed about 3/4 of the yard and quit for dinner. I'll finish it up today. I badly need to spray for weeds again but the forecast is for showers for the next 3 days. It's looking like a Sunday job.
The forecast rain will give me time to read all the manuals that came with the new RV.
We slept with the windows open last night, which was nice.
It's going to be a beautiful day, then tomorrow is to get iffy.
Severe possible.
I work this evening 4-6ish and will see my new guy.
He's the Father of one of the former mayors here.
So I have Victor and Tom only now on Wednesday and Sundays.
Ali is starting this Keto diet.
I am thinking about going back to vegetarian for the most part, tho I'll still enjoy the occasional steak (and bacon).

Survived the gym this morning after getting all 7 kids off to school.
Did a quick layer of bondo on the trucks cab corners.
Off to meet the lovely missus for lunch. Then an appointment this afternoon for me followed by one for our foster son.

Hopefully I can sleep tonight. 3 hours of broken sleep last night is wearing thin. I've got cold chills. Splitting headache. My back and abs haven't been this sore in 2 years. Just when things seemed to be getting better I'm knocked back down.
Two of us went to the Iowa State Capitol on Monday to meet with some state legislators about Veterans' issues. A picture of a fellow Veteran and me with some of the state reps and a picture of me with my friend and a state rep. in the House Chairman's chair. I was (jokingly) saying, "Free beer for Iowans!"
Dog sitting this morning.
Then to the eye doctor to have my right eye checked out. Been giving me problems, want to make sure it is only eye strain from being on the computer or something simple and not something very serious. My prescription for my glasses changed fairly dramatically in my right eye when I got new glasses a couple months ago and I'm still having some pain/pressure/issues. So time to get checked a bit more thoroughly, maybe a referral for CT scan to look behind the eye, etc.
Very nice

We greased the wheels. It should be FAST!
Well, I gotta go fold laundry and make dinner.
Glad we're back up Doc!

Two hour chronic pain support group this morning then a follow-up dental surgery appointment for one of the kiddies.
Tomorrow is more chronic pain at the gym followed by physio. Then a trip to the border for cheap gas and pick up some packages. For those curious, prices up here are averaging anywhere from 1.40l to 1.60l. I'll drive 40 miles to pay .88cents a liter.

Another day of appointments. Getting sick and tired of all these appointments. Oh well. Gives me something to do.
PLAN => Haircut ... Starbucks ... dropping off some fencing supplies at the high school ... probably chat with some of the fencing kids at lunch ... probably work on cleaning up garden debris this afternoon.
REALITY => anyone's guess, because plans rarely pan out

It's windy!
We're under an advisory until 6.
Today I'll go food shopping, then make a stop at the library.
Need to make an appt with eye doc to get a cobweb floater checked out.
I've had them before.
