Crap...I've been laying around the house for the last six months on the couch since I retired in March. No motivation, no energy, haven't touched the bed yet, just completely drained. It seems like I'm going through some type of "phase" right now, and not enjoying it. I had a lot of stress and frustration on my job for the last five years and maybe it's just a detoxification process I'm going through. The house is a mess, no projects completed, the place is just a total wreck, but it seems to be eventually wearing off and time to get busy. This should be the best time of my life after being in the workforce for 40+ years. I shouldn't be sitting around alone and miserable.

I admire you that keep your hand on that plow and move forward and hoping to join the ranks soon. --BB

Aww Bobby. I'm sorry you are having a rough time. Sometimes change, or something else, takes its toll on us. Keep your chin up the best you can and take one day at a time. Look forward to getting those babies. They are so much fun.
I'll be praying for ya.

Yet another King snake captured leaving the woods from the direction of Turkey Town! And he looked lumpy. So he may have been eating eggs. Hope he didn't kill any of my bantams. View attachment 2325318
He bit me twice, I had to grab the lower half of him because he wanted to escape back into the woods.

He is a big guy!

Oh my gosh! You are tough. I can't touch a snake. I sure hope the bites healed ok.

Holy moly Cap, you kick much butt!

On a side note, there is so much smoke in the air it's dusk at 5 pm instead of 7:30 pm. No fires near us but the smoke is filling the coast.
 
if it was up to me to grab the snake, he would have made it to the woods easily.
having trouble getting a shaft for the tractor.
If I order one from ebay it won't get here before my surgery.. my fault, I should have ordered one much earlier on. Nephew who was going to mill my shaft for me is not returning my call.

today it started out at 32F on my phone weather.
I checked the tomatoes, they were wet with dew, I don't think they froze. we will see as the day wears on..
today I hope to get Ollie put all back together.
Monday we are having a large load of granite delivered to fill in the dips and divots on the driveway. It should get us through winter OK.
We tried and tried to get someone with a bulldozer to come and level it out. We never even got a return phone call. Now I gues I know what it means when they are listed as an "independent" contractor..
I guess nobody needs the work..?
